It was 9:30 in the morning. We were on the way to Mt. Fuji. After 150 miles we glimpsed the volcanic mountain for the 1st time. There was no way I was going to miss the opportunity to capture the first glimpse of this majestic mountain, so I took this photo from the bus.

Everytime when I’m going back to Mt. Fuji it feels like it’s the first time visiting. This time was special because my daughter is already 2 years old and she seems to understand more. When someone asks me what to visit around Tokyo, I always recommend Fuji-San. It’s easy to reach and impossible not to love.

Here’s the “Great Buddha” or Kōtoku-in of Kamakura, Japan. Me and my girlfriend travelled from Tokyo to see this great buddha statue. Towering over the tourists it was a hard shot to get uninterrupted from the crowd.

Wandering through the small back alleys of Sangenjaya, Tokyo, around midnight, after the last train has left and only the locals are still around drinking and enjoying lively conversations. This place is packed to the brim with tiny bars that only fit a few people, shoulder to shoulder. Each bar with it’s own vibe and new experience to enjoy.

Another angle of the crossing, from here you can see a taste of just how massive this city is. Whatever direction you turn, there are buildings as far as you can see. So many people.

Finally we made it to Tokyo. Of course we had to visit the Meiji shrine. The shrine is under construction, and it was drizzling, so the place wasn’t packed with tourists. I stood facing the gate, and waited for a moment that caught my eye. I hope that I captured a great moment, and conveyed the right mood.

Tokyo is my all time favourite city to visit. As much as I’m biased towards my hometown London, Tokyo will always have a place in my heart. It’s truly a city that never sleeps and experience you cannot get elsewhere. This is a view from one of the observatories in the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, a free viewing floor that gives you unparalled views of the city.
