2013 November, The Long Trip - Japan

2013 November, The Long Trip, Tokyo, Akihabara

It was one of famous places in Tokyo - an electronic market located near the Akihabara Station and the Suehirocho Station. Apart from many electronic shops you'll find there many maids cafes and restaurants. At almost every single street is a girl advertising one of them. The entrance fee is about 600 JPY per hour. Customers are entertained by girls dressed up as French maids. Once you pay you can take a picture of them, talk, play some games with them. Dance&sing shows come with extra orders. Girls promoting it on the streets were hiding every time they saw a camera pointed at them. Bic Camera shop are located in every district and give you 5% tax deduction and further 5% discount if you pay with Visa. 

After visiting Akihabara I went to the Governmental Tower which has a free entrance to a view point at 45th floor. The building has 2 towers, the south one has a better view but they close it at 5 pm. The north one is open till 11 pm but the last admission is 30 minutes earlier. 

At night I took my first bus with Willers Express to Hiroshima. It was a great idea to book a 3 days pass for 10,000 JPY. Taking a night bus saved me some money on accommodation.
