Shinjuku

Shinjuku was where I stayed in Tokyo. The elevated photos are from my hotel room. The weird looking building, which I took a lot of photos of, is the Cocoon Tower and just opened a few months ago.

Shinjuku is also the home of Shinjuku Station, which is the world's busiest train station. I spent about an hour my first day trying to figure out how to buy a subway ticket, only to completely screw it up. I tried to buy a card that would last a couple days, instead got a single journey ticket with way to many yen on it. Round 1 goes to Tokyo.

The photo set can be found here.
The map of the photo set is here.
