The most Amazing Experience of my Life
13 years ago
General
So as many of you know I went to Japan and man it is an amazing place!
I was staying at a hotel in Ueno,Tokyo which was a very nice and cool area. So many shops and things to do! Hell everywhere in Tokyo is almost like times square with so much to do and so much excitement! One of the coolest things near me was an amazing 7 story toy store that was filled with the coolest of toys and things! I got a cool little wolf guy sticker for my ipod there.
Gee, i did so much I hardly know what to talk about haha. Um I went to the different districts of Tokyo, Ueno being great and Harajuku and Shibuya being amazing as well! Those last two areas are crazy! so many people and so much energy and they are great places to just be crazy and fun and yourself! One thing that was great was it was cold so I was wearing my wolf hat and I kept getting compliments from people and got called kawaii again and again haha it was fun and was a fun way to interact with the locals!
I also went to a bunch of temples and shrines, the coolest temple being the Golden temple in Kyoto which was stunning and the Inari ( the shinto fox god) shrine also in Kyoto. The Inari shrine was by far the greatest site I went to and the whole place was beautiful and I loved how the paths snaked seemingly forever into the forest and up the mountain side. The whole place felt very spiritual and had a great energy to it and was a very nice escape from the intense urban setting I'd been in for the past 2 weeks.
Lets see...Oh! I also went to studio Ghibli! the studio that created great animations such as My Neighbor Totoro! That was a great experience and it was awesome to see all of the progress drawing for the movies and character development and how they actually put together and made the movies. I also got to see a short film that is only shown at the studio and no where else in the world!
Also went to the worlds only Manga museum in Kyoto which was rad and was cool to see how Manga changed and developed through the years and got to see a lot of cool art there. Even got to leave a doodle in a sketch book for the museum :D
I went to a theme park at the base of Mt.Fuji as well! That was fun and Mt.Fuji is a beautiful site! And We also went to Tokyo Disney Sea which could top any of the Disney parks here in the US. ( Actually a lot of things in Japan were better than things here in the US...)
That's all I'll ramble on about for now. All I can say is if you have the chance, go visit! and I totally will go back in the future!
Any questions about anything? Feel free to ask! c:
Have a great day!
