* Harajuku *

My all time favorite area of Tokyo is Harajuku. That's were all the goths and punks hang out. It's also were you can find shops that sell goth, punk, lolita, and cyber style clothes- as well as music, accessories, and other cool stuff.

That's a pic from a street over pass of the bridge towards Meiji Shrine. That bridge is were all the "freaks" hang out. You can see them there from early in the mornings till the afternoons. Sundays are the best days to go, but you could usually spot some gothy kids on any day. The Japanese goth style is a bit different that of back home, but it's still cool. I love Harajuku!
Some of the Harajuku goths. Bronwen and I asked them for info about a goth club but they didn't seem to know any. Looks like their goth outings are limited to hanging on the bridge. Rather sad if you ask me. Oh well, they were really sweet- so it's all good.
I thought these three chicks looked cute in their traditional Japanese outfits turned goth.
As for shops, there's tons in the area, for lots of great buys-- unfortunantly at high prices. The shop workers are really cool,too-- and if you're interested in goth clubs, ask in the shops. We had no luck getting info on the bridge, but a cool chick at Stigmata gave us info about an event and she even drew us a map. Too bad, Bronwen and I still didn't find the club. Oh well-- maybe next time.
