Shinjuku-ku
Shinjuku standard

Miniature metropolis. Famous for the only sky scrapers you will find in Tokyo, because of earthquake dangers.
Other parts seem to be competing in contrasts.


In one of the sky scrapers, a famous building marred by heavy corruption scandals (familiar story - it's the government seat) we found the first graffiti. They are very rare in Japan - as yet; most of them obviously were by barbarian visitors from the West.
