Fuji & Tokyo

May I present you...Mt. Fuji!

Kävinpä sitten Fujiakin katsomassa.

It's gorgeus, isn't it?

I think seeing the Mt. Fuji was and has been the most beautiful experience during my stay in Japan!

I also visited a small museum dedicated to musical automatons

I also visited Miraikan, a museum dedicated for science and technology. Here's ASIMO doing a performance!

I also visited rather many art museums.

Kävin myös aika monessa taidemuseossa.

The National Art Museum

The interior was rather....interesting. It's a small restaurant up there

Tokyo Tower

Yes, it was veeeery rainy

Ugly Picasso painting

These paintings are about a shrine in Shimonoseki, which is in Yamaguchi prefecture, and a boy emperor who died only at the age of 7. You can check out the sad story here and you'll understand the paintings: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akama_Shrine
