The Omotesando street was located just across the park. There was a lot of shops and a couple of shopping malls on both sides of the road. We mistakenly read the maps, but finally made it to the Oriental Bazaar, a souvenir shop selling souvenirs and also kimonos.

We walked to Shibuya area which was not too far from Omotesando. It was a very crowded shopping district, with a lot of bright neon signs and tall buildings.

I captured an interesting scene of hundreds of peoples waited and crossed the street in a hurry when the lights turned green. We did not stop for shopping in Shibuya though.

Back from Shibuya, we checked in at the Green Hotel and went to the 10th floor where our rooms were located. I’m very surprised about the size of the room. It was about 2 by 3 metres in size and that includes a bathroom. There was an LCD TV inside as well.

It was about 10pm when we decided to go out for a dinner. The streets have become very quiet and a lot of shops have closed. We decided to take our dinner in a small restaurant near the hotel. Ordering the foods are done in a very unique way, where we picked and paid for the menu with a vending machine that gives us a ticked to be given to the waiter. It was very cheap (compared to other foods we ate in Tokyo) though. During the dinner, there was a Japanase woman having some conversation with Andoko in Chinese. She was very fluent in Chinese, having learnt it for four years.

After the late dinner, we walked back to the Hotel, and realized how cold it is in Tokyo that late at night in March.
