I've always tell my friends you never really know Tokyo until you visit Tokyo Tower, so it's a highly recommended place to visit. The views from the Tower is amazing and beautiful both day & night. Well anyway more on Tokyo Tower next time in a new post. Now i just want show you how Tokyo Tower looks like in the day and in the night. I photograph this 2 photos above from my Hotel room window.

This photo below, Interesting fact i learned from a Japanese Lady

when i was in Tokyo back in 2008

When you visit Tokyo Tower at night, look around outside at the magnificent views of Tokyo and look for these roads. You will soon realise the roads in the photos resemble Tokyo Tower and also the Tokyo Tower Logo that can be found on the Official Tokyo Tower watch. For those who had visited Tokyo Tower and did not realised it, look for it next time you are there, it will be fun :-) Share with us your favourite Tokyo Tower photos or Videos at our Facebook page, Thank you.

Rabbit on the Moon (Japanese Version)

Every time there is a full moon everyone always look up in the sky and say "Wow! Look at the full moon". Some would ask can you see the Rabbit on the moon? And one time a Japanese Friend of mine she say, "Hey, you know the Rabbit is making rice cake on the moon" :-) Hmm.... Interesting, tell me about it from Her Japanese point of view. Oh ya the Full moon photo below was taken this year during the Moon eclipse at December 10, 2011 using my SLR Camera with a 400mm Telescopic lens zoom. Can you see a Rabbit?

Back to what my Japanese friend's version of the rabbit on the moon, She say just look at the moon and you can see a Rabbit pounding rice cake, it's a Japanese Folks Tale (not sure about story, Google it up :-p). After that she told me if she can go to the moon she want to find the rabbit (Just like she wanted to ride a Giant Turtle). Well if you observe the moon photo below, you can see a Rabbit pounding a rice cake.

For some people, this is how the Rabbit look like below during the full moon.

Anyone know the full story, Japanese version? Share with us at our Facebook page, Thank you :-)

Japan Hotel Washroom (aka Toilet)

If you stay in a typical Japan Hotel, don't expect the washroom to be big & spacey. But it is very well equipped and comes with a very advance technology toilet. At some Hotel you can even hear what's on your TV through the washroom speaker, and you have a telephone in there. My advice test out everything in the washroom first before you do your business in there, make sure of that. I almost embarrassed myself by calling the hotel staff for not knowing how to use the toilet, but luckily i figured it out :-)

Here are some things you can find in a washroom, well just leave your shampoo, body wash at home. Good products and good Hotel Souvenir :-)

Here we are, the modern toilet, or called the "Super Toilet". The feature set commonly found on this type of toilet sit or wash-lets are Anus washing, bidet washing, seat warming, blow dryer, massage options, water jet adjustments, automatic lid opening, wireless control panel, automatic flushing and and deodorisation. Well not on all model, it depends. When your in Japan check out it's function, it should be fun for anyone who are going to use it for the first time :-)
