- Description
- Tokyo was an amazing experience for me. The city seemed so developed and alive, while still managing to keep in touch with traditional Japanese culture. I was able to see much more of just a sheer variation of people in Toyko. From businessmen in suits, to guys with crazy spiked orange hair, to girls dressed up like something out of a cartoon. With all of the different shops selling clothes matching each and every different style, Tokyo really seemed like a city where one could be themselves and do what they wanted. It also helped that the weather was wonderful. This particular photo was taken in a more edgy, counter-culture, university age district. As one can see the graffiti and alternative stickers plastered all over the sign. This photo made me realize that despite its size, even a city of 25 million people is a different space to each and every separate person in it. The people make the city, not the other way around.
