Did you know?
The 100th Anniversary of Hachiko’s birth.
Hachiko, the most famous dog in Japan, would have been 100 years old this November. Why is Hachiko so famous? Well, in the early 1920s, Hachiko would wait every afternoon at Tokyo’s Shibuya Station for his owner, a university professor, to return. However, after about a year the professor suffered a cerebral hemorrhage while at work and passed away. Despite this, Hachiko continued to visit the station for about 10 years, waiting for his owner’s return. This heartwarming tale of loyalty and faithfulness is memorialized by a bronze statue of Hachiko in front of Shibuya Station, which serves as a popular meeting spot and a popular tourist attraction for Japanese and overseas visitors alike.
Akihabara
Originally famous for its many small and large consumer electronics shops, in recent years Akihabara has also emerged as the center of Japan’s anime and manga culture, with all kinds of shops attracting fans from all over the world. Akihabara is also arguably the center of Japan’s video game industry, and it also has a ton of old-school gaming arcades in case you want to try a tabletop Space Invaders game or your hand at the old UFO Catcher.
