The electrical heart of Tokyo, and therefore perhaps in the world. I wasn't purchasing anything but it was so cool to browse all the shops, see the displays and all the flashing adverts and generally revel in the atmosphere.

This is the oldest temple in Tokyo and I have to say it was everything I hoped it would be. Just stunning. I really loved the style of everything and felt a bit in awe of the imposing structures!

I was so privileged to get to go here in Cherry Blossom season the previous time I went to Tokyo, this time I wasn't so fortunate but it's still a great place to go, and you can even get a downloadable mp3 played guide so this time I learned even more!!

A great park, perfect for a day's adventuring, the highlight of which is coming across the Langebaan Lagoon, a significant site for wetland birds. Great place!

Lovely park, part of the Two Rivers Urban Park and a great palce for birdwatching. I've been a couple of times in different seasons and there are always fantastic things to see.
