Day 11: SHIBUYA & HARAJUKU & ROPPONGI

My first time in Japan, I had such an expensive meal. Sunchai brought us to have brunch at Sweet Paradise; famous cake buffet restaurant in Shibuya. Several kinds of Spaketti and colorful cakes, sweets and ice-cream lined at the side of large restaurant that was very crowded. If we was late merely 15 minutes, there weren’t any dining tables left. We had 90mins for buffet time, this brunch was nice but I felt extremely full, uncomfortable and got flatulence.


The statue of grateful Japanese dog was settled in front of Shibuya Rail way station. They told that this dog had came to meet his master everyday even though the master had passed away, he still do for years. Wow! Such a lovely dog, I luv him. Lots of traveler take photo with the famous dog.

Shibuya Center Town is one of the busiest part of Tokyo especially on holidays. Along the main street and the center alleys are lined up a number of shops popular among young people such as foreigh-affiliated music stores, fashion goods shops, variety stores, and fast-food stores. Oh! My God… so many people.
Then we went to Harajuku that is not far from Shibuya. Takeshita Dori was congested on weekend as well, stores containing miscellaneous character and idol goods popular among teens are lined up along the street. A lot of Cos play were at the entrance of Meiji Jingu Shrine.

In the evening we went to sightsee Tokyo perspective at Roppongi Hills; passport ticket: 1000 yen for students (we are students, aren’t we?? Yessssss l…a). Tokyo tower view from Roppongi was splendid, the emblazoned buildings and the colorful night of sleepless city as Tokyo was cool.
