Thank you

Go to Harajuku on a weekend, and be prepared to ask yourself "what is all the fuss about?". The brand name has gotten larger than the reality. Check out Shinjuku...

tip read my guide

=P

umm Harajuku is soo over rated. every one thinks theres cosplayers and crazy dressing people running all over tokyo and harajuku, but its really on a nice weekend.

so if your there and its 2 cold or 2 hot or raining or humid, dont expect to see any thing.

Shinjuku is fun... i like Shibuya better and omotosando, but im a fashion nut and a shopaholic.

only a few days is a shame, cuz takes a lot longer to get the full experience of Tokyo.

any more specific questions feel free to ask.

check the guide and watch some of my vids if you got any q's
