nara dreamland

Journey into Dreamland

Photos from inside Nara Dreamland, Japan. The park was abandoned in 2006 and nothing’s been done with it since. It’s all locked off.. but I found a way in.

tsukiji fish market

Plenty more fish…

It’s like a whole other world inside the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo. It’s the world’s largest seafood market and there is a lot to see!

kanamara matsuri

The penis worshippers

This has got to be one of the strangest festivals out there. In the usually demure country of Japan, a Shinto shrine dedicates the day to penises!

daruma temple

The grumpy dolls of Takasaki

I always thought Daruma dolls looked grumpy and unhappy. But at the temple where they were created, I learn there’s much more to them than that.
