The main reason we were in the Harajuku area was because we wanted to see the flea market by the Togo Shrine
Things are not cheap in the market…like this helmet which I spotted and knew my Dad would like…It was going for around 60,000 yen! The black one was 47,000 yen!

We went to Harajuku and is a first time for me. Wow!! I love the place!! I was able to take a few photos of some shops…but regret not taking photos of Harajuku looking people! My niece Gabbi and I wanted to take photos but we were a bit embarassed to do so…plus there were so many people. It was difficult to stop and move. We went early morning and it was quite pleasant with very few people in the street, but after eating lunch and went out of the restaurant, we could not believe it… the street was soooo… tight! This is how it looked from the top of the street! I was hoping I could go back in and take more photos but it was just too tight
Because it is so cold, when I see this store, I want to buy everything! 🙂
Happy Hearts!! Heart2Heart likes the name! They sell kinky lingerie though 🙂
I am beginning to suspect Japanese like hearts! Angels Heart crepe place! Looks yummy! Looks empty but when we went back, there was a very long line already
Another crepe place…
Oh my gosh!! I like this shop!! Pink!!!
My niece Danni told me to take this and dedicate this to Edward Cullen 🙂

And if you are lucky to bump into a 100 yen store, even better!! They have many many things all for a 100 yen!! That is around P 56.00 ( exchange rate 85 yen to US$1 = P48 ). For Japan, believe me that is cheap because everything else is expensive! So I let my son go wild in this store and he does- I tell him to buy anything he wants! 🙂 It is his favorite store!
We saw around 3 of them and we found Daiso ( website: Daiso ) to be the best among all since it had more assortment. Daiso has around 2,500 stores around Japan. In Daiso and another store, they say 105 yen which should include taxes. Hmmm…
In the Japan Home Center here in the Philippines ( Everything P 88.00 ), they have a Daiso section for P 66.00
These are photos are from different 100 yen shops
Oh my gosh! They had a section for Heart2Heart! 🙂

Japan is the land of gadgets and electronics! Wow!! And this store is just so amazing because it is a one stop destination for many many gadgets! Problem would be that the instructions and everything written on it in Japanese. Hmmm… But never mind, just tinker with all the gadgets- they have a sample of everything and you can test and try them out…I wish I took photos inside the store
A giant 103 inch LCD screen for five million yen – that is around US$ 59,000.00
A refrigerator with so many doors!!!
The store guide of the store we went to…just to give you an idea of what is inside the store! You will go crazy!

It’s been 17 year since Tita Pachot started Old Asia. She was one of the first in the business till everyone else followed.
More power to Tita Pachot and Old Asia!
Of course, behind Tita Pachot is her loving and supportive family….
and friends….
Tita Pachot selects everything that goes inside the store…and everything is beautiful! I think that in every business, what is important is the owner’s touch. It makes a whole lot of difference and you will know it…
