Grounds of the Imperial Palace


I shot this near the entrance of the East Gardens of the Imperial Palace. You can see Tokyo Tower in the background. It is the Eiffel Tower of Tokyo. 

Old meets new. 



I wanted to get a closer look at the guards, but the bridge was blocked off. 


The area surrounding the gardens and the palace was huge. There was a big park with a lot of benches and trees. There were a lot of people hanging out, walking their dogs, running, or reading books. I really enjoyed walking through here and taking photos. It was peaceful and a nice contrast to the craziness of Shibuya and Ginza.
