A friend recommended this hotel in Osaka and we were lucky to be able to book it in a very short amount of lead time. We happened to find it in HotelClub.com and it was at pretty decent price. With this booking confirmed, we are spending a few days in the Osaka neighbourhood.
Here are some more photos taken in Hong Kong. In no particular order, these photos were taken in Mongkok and Causeway Bay.
After walking through Nakamise, we arrived at Sensouji (浅草寺). It is light up at night and is better suited for photo taking at this time of the day. Compared to the last time I was here, I think the photos this time turn out a lot more interesting.
Asakusa is one of those places that I love to visit every time I come to Tokyo. Not a whole lot has changed since the first time I visited in 2003. And compared to the time we visited there in 2009, this time the weather cooperated a lot nicer. Apart from Sensouji, Nakamise (仲見世) is a great stroll for getting おみやげ for friends and family!
More photos of the restaurants in Nakano. There are so many that I think I might have captured less than 30% of what is around. If you love Japanese food, if you love izakaya, you will find Nakano offers you a lot of choices.
Been longing to visit a friend in Yokohama and finally it is time. Taking the trains from Nakano to Yokohama was easier and much faster than I thought. Basically we took the Yamanote Chou Line from Nakano station to Shinjuku station, then switch to the Shounan-Shinjuku Line Special Rapid Service which is an express rapid line that stops at Shinjuku. It took only 30 minutes from Shinjuku to Yokohama. I was very impressed.
The neighbourhood where we are staying is pretty quiet and convenient. We are only 5 minutes from the shops and 6 minutes from the trains. I took some photos of the neighbourhood at night using the Sony NEX-5N without a tripod and these photos turn out pretty nicely.
After arriving at Nakano, we spent the first night getting reacquainted with Nakano. We visited this place the past couple times visiting Tokyo but never stayed here before. There are so many shops and restaurants that it is virtually impossible to finish trying them all.
