Some say that at the end of this street someone turns off the lights when people go to sleep, is it true?

Harajuku Omotesando Super Yosakoi 2016

Rarely have I seen so many people enjoying a parade like Yosakoi. People dancing to the rhythm of the music, all smiling, happy. One of the most authentic experiences I have ever lived.

People having breakfast at Tsukiji market at six in the morning. I would never have imagined so many people lining up for a breakfast away from home.

The Jizo Statues of Zojoji Temple

"These statues are placed there to pray for the health and safety of young children, as well as pray for the souls of mizuko, literally “water children.” Mizuko is the term used in Japan to refer to the souls of children who died before birth or shortly after. There are around 1,300 Jizo statues at Zojoji" (Source: https://tokyopast3.com/tokyo-zojoji-jizo/)

The Jizo Statues of Zojoji Temple: Guardians of Deceased Children - Tokyo Past 3

The Jizo statues at Zojoji may look cute at first glance, but they're there to represent children who left the world too soon.
