Now that I was back in Tokyo with 2 days left to spare before my flight, I decided to go to Tokyo Sky Tree! This new piece of architecture had just opened last year and may replace Tokyo Tower in popular culture, so I wanted to see what the big deal was. It is essentially a broadcasting tower with restaurants and observatories for viewing the city!

| Almost seeeeeeeee Tokyo Sky Tree up close! |
 |
| And here it is! |
 |
| Haha this is a cute sign to a souvenir shop at the bottom of the building |
 |
| There seems to be a "Tree" theme going on here! |
 |
| Yes, it's sweet potato again! Sweet potato and milk softserve :) |
 |
| My childhood: Tomogotchi!! I think this is the remake of my childhood toy! |
 |
| Once again, the city is full of Christmas decorations! |

After Sky Tree, I was on my way to Meiji Shrine, definitely one of the most popular shrines to visit in Tokyo. As I am crossing this bridge...
 |
I get to the entrance of the shrine and see everyone walking out....
because the shrine just closed ): So I missed the opportunity to look inside! |
Although disappointed, I saw on the map that Yoyogi Park was just around the corner so I decided to stop by! This a place where most street artists perform and it's a "young" park!
