Tokyo (October 27)

In the Morning, I went to the Meiji Shrine in Harajuku. The shrine was built in 1920 and honors the Meiji Emperor.
The gate.
The traditional autumn festival was held there.

I saw very funky girls in Harajuku.

I participated an English guided tour "Panorama view course" of the Hato Bus in the afternoon.
The Hato bus is available several English guided tours around Tokyo.

First, I climbed to the World Trade Center observatory to see a panoramic view of the city.
I was able to see the Rainbow Bridge visibly from there.

After we left the World Trade Center Building, I went aboard the Sumida River boat cruise to Asakusa.

Asakusa

Asakusa remains important parts of the Tokyo even if their prestige has slipped behind other sub centers such as Ginza, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro or Shibuya.
The Kaminarimon is one of the most recognized sights of Tokyo.
The Sensoji Temple is probably Tokyo's most famous shrine.

Finally, we went to the Imperial Palace, but I didn't manage to go to the Niju Bridge.
