Olympus XA / Agfa Vista Plus 200

The day we went to Meiji Shrine. We’d already been to Yoyogi Park after our trip to Shimokitazawa but didn’t have to visit the shrine. We headed there the next day and wandered to Harajuku to gawk at crêpe-munching teeny-boppers at Takashita Street and of course, munch some crêpes.

Meiji Jingu is pretty amazing actually. It’s set in a 700,000 m² wood – an impressive chunk of land set aside for such a project. The shrine itself was destroyed during WWII and was rebuilt afterwards. The Torii gates are the largest in the World and were built with cypress wood that was half-inched from Taiwan during he war.
