So today was yet again another jam-packed day. The morning started out with a train ride to Kamakara to see the Great Buddha statue. After that we checked into our traditional style hostel in Shin-Okubo then headed to the middle of Tokyo to get a view of the city at the Tokyo Tower. After eating some street food we walked the strip of Shinjuku and stumbled into the red light district! After being haggled by creepy dude trying to get us to buy hookers we finally made our way back to the hostel. Here are some pictures from today.

Tokyo Tower.....also known as Japan's version of the Eiffel Tower haha.
The bridge in the background also looked like a copy of the Golden Gate Bridge. Japan needs to work on their architectural originality!

Thats it for today. Tomorrow we will probably try to hit the Sky Tree in Tokyo then catch our flight back to Seoul. Goodnight.
