This is Downtown Tokyo. I think it looks like Times Square in New York City, don't you? I love Tokyo.

The Groping Epidemic

author: serlingrod : Tokyo, Japan

Because of the high density of people who occupy Tokyo Metro trains during rush hour, there had been a staggering amount of sexual harrassment cases reported to the police in recent years. One of the Metro's responses to this growing groping epidemic this was to create "Women Only" cars on some of the city's more heavily travelled lines during peak hours.

Zojoji Temple

author: serlingrod : Tokyo, Japan

Zojoji Temple is a Buddhist temple in Minato-ku ward, right in the heart of Tokyo. It served as the Buddhist temple of the Tokugawa family during the Edo period (Tokugawa Ieyasu was the first shogun, or general, of the Tokugawa shogunate, or dictatorship, which ruled Edo before it became Tokyo after the Meiji Restoration of 1868, when insular Japan opened up to the Western world). The cute little statues are known as Jizo statues, each representing a miscarried or aborted children. Young couples come and may homage to the mizuko (soul) of their unborn children.
