Let's start with Ginza(銀座), Japan

I can say that I think I know this place the most if we talk about Japan because almost every time I went to Tokyo, I stayed at a hotel in Ginza. Why? It's so easy and convenient to travel in Tokyo from this place. With a subway that is a line we can easily go to many famous places for tourism and also JR train station, which is a kind of train that travels in Tokyo and many other cities ( the company of Shinkansen)--but let's get in detail of these trains later in another blog post. Ginza is located in the capital city, Tokyo. This place is like a street of brand products because there are showrooms such as Chanel, Mikimoto pearl, Bvlgari( do I spell it right?)-- something like that-- along the main street, yet, there are various kind of stuffs like Apple store, Sony building, a waffle shop with a long line of customer which I don't remember the name (lol), a cute little flower shop, coffee shops etc. There are two big department stores which are Mitsukoshi and Matsuya.
My favorite stores here, I'd say " Itoya", the biggest stationary store I've ever seen. You can easily see its logo, the big red paper clip.

We can walk to another street from the main street, pass the alley next to Chanel. You will see another department store "Automne" before you reach a big crossroad-- walk straight and there will be another department store which is OlOl (Marui City) and JR Yurakucho station. Near there, there are small shops that we can go have a fun exploration :P.

At night, this place is so beautiful with neon
lights from shops and building and DAMN..I'd just realized that I've never take a picture of the big crossroad which is the icon of Ginza with my good carera but ..whatever I still have this okay one though.>

For weekends afternoon, the main road of
Ginza will be closed (no cars baby!). That's right, people can now walk wherever they want and there will be tables and chairs at the middle of the road for people to chill. I've seen many Japanese bring their dogs here( ughh dogs are so cute lol).

What else....oh right! The white building in the photo above..I love it and it's located at the corner of a big crossroad. Buildings on the four corners have CLOCKs and they will ring at the same time at six pm, that's the time you have to be there to wait see and hear by yaself.

How to get there!? It's easy. From subway (get on the Ginza line or Marunouchi line), get off at Ginza station (G09/M16).

That's it for now I guess. Good night, Pat.
