Japan diary 2014. Tracks 2 Tokyo.

After some quiet days in the mountains and Karuizawa, we have entered the last two stages of this summer trip. This morning it was out of the wee country inn and onto the Shinkansen.

 Now it is Tokyo. A city that makes even Hong Kong look provincial. Next two something days will be spent here. First stop; Shibuya and the amazing Hachikō. 
Don't know the story then have a look here:

This picture from Shibuya Station gives an impression of the size of Tokyo. These train lines is only in the metropolitan area of the city.
