明治神宮外苑の紅葉ライトアップです！
大きな湖前で撮影をしました。

ライトアップされた紅葉が水面に綺麗に映り出され、まるで鏡のような幻想的な景色に出会えました。
息を呑む美しさ。そっと写真を撮った後は、数分、日本の秋に浸ってました。

(I took this picture which is an illuminated autumn tree in Meiji Jingu Gaien park.)

Summer is the festive season. Several festival occurs during the summer time all over the country. This is one is taken from Shinjuku Eisa festival. During the festival time I saw this young, energetic and enthusiastic boy. He was very happy to perform. Despite very hot humid summer he performed delightfully.

『攻殻機動隊 SAC_2045 最後の人間』観てきました( ^)o(^ )
相変わらず難しいけど面白かったです!

劇場入口にパネルとタチコマちゃんがいたのでたくさん撮影してきました♡

攻殻好きだなぁ
初期作はマトリックスもインスパイアされたりしてるけど、一般的にはあまり知られてない作品。
でも好みが合う人はずっと好きな作品で、そんなとこも好きです(*´ｪ`*)

コロナ禍の中何があるか分からない時代にこのコンセプトを掲げているのは凄いなと思いました。
進化し続けるから未完地帯なんだろうなと。

This year's biggest national park in Tokyo, Shinjuku Gyoen held a nighttime cherry blossom event which is quite unique and mesmerizing. Those who live near Tokyo must visit this event.

Went to Shinjuku Gyoen again, this time to see the autumn leaves before the season ends. The park was as beautiful as I thought it would be. Some of the colors were so vibrant as well, it was really nice. The park was nice and quiet and while it was a bit chilly outside, it was a nice chance to get some fresh air. Been busy lately and haven’t been able to go out as much because of it, so this was a nice change of pace

Finally managed to visit Shinjuku Gyoen over the weekend

Been meaning to go here for a while now and finally had the chance

The park itself was quite large, it was a bit surprising how much space it actually takes up in the city.
There were a lot of cool stone lanterns and other structures to see throughout the park as well.
The Taiwan building was pretty interesting to learn about. Apparently it was donated to Japan in 1924 by Japanese people living in Taiwan.
The sign outside mentioned that it was a nice place to feel the breeze and it wasn't a lie either. It felt really nice standing on the balcony overlooking the pond. The breeze came through perfectly.

Unfortunately we didn't bring a blanket with us to the park but there were a lot of other people laying down on the grass and it looked like a nice place to have a picnic.

We stopped at one of the rest areas and grabbed some drinks as well. I got a lemonade drink that was really refreshing and she got a café latte.

We took a quick tour through the greenhouse at the end as well and it had a lot of cool plants inside. I found this flower with grey leaves that I thought was really cool looking.

I definitely want to return during autumn to see how the park looks after the leaves change!

Went to Shinjuku Station the other day and took of photo of the giant metal sculpture while I was there. I've only passed it a few times since it was erected during the pandemic, but my curiosity finally got the best of me, and I had some extra time anyways so I snapped a quick shot of it.

I did a little research on it and it was apparently made by the famous arist Tomokazu Matsuyama and the theme of theme for lack of a better word is to greet visitors with surprise and bewilderment.

It's pretty interesting and looks different from every angle as well. If you look at the right side of the photo (it's kind of cut off) you can see it holding a flower with its arm outstretched.

The name of it is Hanao-san, and while I'm not sure of the origin behind the name it has certainly piqued my interest...

Went to Shinjuku over the weekend and found a really awesome plaza with an open-style food court that had several different shops inside of it. I was kind of craving some tacos or something ethnic at the time so I went and got a burrito at "Chronic Tacos" because it looked really tasty. It's kind of a "build-your-own burrito" system which is nice. You can choose the type of meat you want in your burrito (I chose spicy pork) and and other toppings I think. I also added guacamole to mine. You can add it on the side or have it put into the burrito as well. I wanted to try a taco as well but since there were other restauraunts I grabbed two slices of pizza at a place called "Cucinova."

The pizza tasted great, and the spicy slice that I got had the perfect amount of spicyness! The food was definitely great at both places, although maybe the burrito was a bit expensive. I think it was ¥1200 for a drink and the burrito. They could probably make it a little cheaper, although Mexican cuisine always seems to be a bit expensive in Japan. Maybe it has to do with ingredients. Not sure though.

Overall, I definitely recommend checking it out. They've got a coffee place as well and while I didn't get a coffee from there the scones looked pretty tasty! I think there was a bar as well if you're looking to grab some drinks with a friend.

Had a really good looking and tasting bowl of ramen in Shinjuku over the weekend and decided to take a bunch of pictures of it lol. There's so many ramen shops around Shinjuku Station that it was hard to choose where to go at first but we ended up choosing this place - Manbaken Ramen (萬馬軒). The chashu looked amazing just seeing the photos so I decided to get the miso chashu ramen with an egg topping. The ramen tasted really great and the chashu was thick, had a nice salty flavor, and the texture was really nice as well. My girlfriend ordered the spicy miso ramen and unfortunately we didn't think it tasted as good as the normal miso. It was almost like there was yuzu or sansho pepper inside of it and it gave it a strange tangy flavor that neither of us were huge fans of. I still definitely recommend the normal miso ramen though! The normal miso chashu ramen was ¥1100 and a normal bowl of miso ramen is just ¥790
