A nice little house in the crowded Japanese city.

A crane walking in a pond in a large park in Chuo Ward.

The famous LOVE sign. During the day, it is barely noticed amongst all the busy people coming and going to and fro. But at night, it sits quietly and begs for your attention.

A little of the night lights in the red light district of Shinjuku, in the northern part of the busy area.

東京都庁舎 Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building (Tōkyō Tochōsha). This was the main objective for today as it has two free observation decks.

Looking East to the skyscrapers of 新宿 Shinjuku.

The back of the National Diet Building, house of the Japanese National Parliament.

The Front Exterior of the National Diet Building

A nice view of Tokyo, looking east from near the Imperial Palace.

The 二重橋 Nijubashi Bridge leading visitors to the right up to the Imperial Palace.

Looking east from the Tokyo World Trade Center Building to the Tokyo Bay.

The first 鳥居 torii gate on the path to the 明治神宮 Meiji Shrine.

Here it is! The top of Mount Fuji! It's 3770m above sea level and I arrived at 1:30 in the morning! There was almost no one else up here! (Everyone else was resting at one of the huts further down.)

A little sliver of the sun over the clouds at 4:34am from the top of Mount Fuji

The Sun fully risen above the clouds at 5:15am from the top of Mount Fuji.
