Japan Trip 2008 - Part 2 / 5th Day


This is Shinjuku. This is a very good place to shop and I realised that the average price of the items in Japan Department Shop is around 3500yen ~8500yen, which is about S$40 ~ S$100 and 3500yen is considered cheap over there!!! =.=III


But I think for the Japanese, they can afford to spend because their salaries are high, to cater for all these. As for us, tourists, we may find it expensive.



Unfortunately, part of Shinjuku area was under construction at that time so...yar, abit rueful about it.





















Did you see that?? It is a multi-storey bookshop, Kinokuniya!!! That's my favourite place and of course, I bought alot of japanese manga and it was cheap, as compared to the japanese manga you order in SG.



Oh, when we reached Shinjuku train station, we had deposited our main luggage at the lockers because we would be coming back to board the night coach to Kyoto.

After we had shopped at Shinjuku, ( believe it, we had spent almost half of the day or more, just at one shopping mall!!! one day is not enough in Shinjuku!!!) we decided to walk down to Harajuku, which was about two train stops away.
