Takeshita street

After reaching Harajuku (which was a pain because it took us twenty minutes to finally get on the right train), we split up again. Purva and the elders went to a Vegan place where they ended up having their best meal of Japan. They were super stoked. Divya, Nishu and I took a walk and inadvertently ended up on the super crowded Takeshita street, which was full of places selling toys and sugary food. We had some cakes shaped in the form of pandas, strawberries and grapes coated with a crystallised sugar and finally some tea to neutralise all the sugar. We also went inside a capsule toy shop where I ended up getting a Mario watch (which doesn’t work yet, probably because it needs cells). When the rest of the group finished their meal, we brought them to the entrance of the street so that they could witness the madness of the street too. We clicked some pictures at the entrance which had a camera and a small rectangular screen reflecting the people standing in front of the entrance. We then headed towards the Shibuya district.Read more
