    I cannot wait to visit Tokyo someday. It is so happening and so much to see for tourists like me. The city view looks like a lighted computer chipboard! The Sakurabashi Bridge is so unique and nice at night with its split curves.

    東京スカイツリー　行きました。最上階まで登りました。入場券が高過ぎるのではと内心思いました。夜ではなく昼間だったのですが、この写真を見て、暗くなってから行けば良かったなと感じています。非常に美しい夜景ですね。　やはり携帯よりも、ちゃんとしたカメラで撮りたい眺めだと思います。　楽しかった日本の旅が懐かしいです。

      Dear Akemi sama.
      こんばんは。　混雑する時期を見送って、ようやく行きました。　あいにくの曇り空でしたが、夜景は良く見えました。
      　もう懐かしいと思われる様になってしまいましたか。時の流れは早いですね。

    That's so beautiful Minoru! :)

    I was looking for English websites that writes about Japan coz we're visiting next year. It's so hard to get English content (except for RocketNews24 - not sure that counts) and unfortunately, I can't read Japanese although I can understand a limited amount of words.

    Your photos are beautiful and I love reading your posts - it has so much to offer, I can plan our destinations more clearly thanks to you. Cheers!

    大都会東京の夜は星たちも負けてしまうような光の海ですね。川と橋の写っているのが好きです。スカイツリーの高さは６３４メートルですね？ドイツ人の友人から昔の「武蔵」の国だから６３４だと聞きました。日本人なのにその時までは知りませんでした。

      Dear Yoko sama.
      　おはようございます。ありがとうございます。「川は分かち、橋は結ぶ」という言葉がありました。当初の計画では610mでしたが、曲折があって、武蔵の国の語呂合わせで、634m になったそうです。

    Minoru, these are exceptional photos, I like them very much! Tokyo seems to be a great city!

    Thank you for visiting my blog and taking time to comment, I really appreciate it! Also thank you for offering help - I hope I can visit Japan one day! Same here - if you come to Germany, please do get in touch, I'll be happy to show you around. We live in the Western part, near Cologne and the Rhine, did you see that at your last visit, too?

    I assume you don't really celebrate Christmas in Japan, but anyway, happy holidays and all the best!
