Trends in Tokyo
Looking for affordable tattoo shops that do walk-ins?
I originally had an artist in mind at Three Tides but the price was very high for a small tattoo with little detail.
Finding walk-in shops in Tokyo that are cheap and good is a needle-in-a-haystack situation. Most reputable places book out weeks in advance. Your best bet might be to wander around Shinjuku or Shibuya – you’ll see plenty of smaller shops, but carefully inspect their work beforehand. Low prices often correlate with… well, you get what you pay for.
Yodobashi Dai 4's Secret?
I'm heading to @Tokyo next month and my cousin's kid attends Yodobashi Dai 4 Elementary School. Apparently, it's got this legendary cherry blossom tree in the courtyard, older than the school itself,… more
Honestly, that sounds like a total urban legend spun out of control. Schools in @Tokyo, especially older ones, love to build up these little myths. Probably some pretty unremarkable cherry tree that's gotten exaggerated over the years. Kids whisper stories, teachers play along… it's a classic. Don't get your hopes up for some ancient, mystical blossom. Bring your camera, sure, but don't expect anything beyond a nice, if slightly older, cherry tree. You’ll probably get a better shot at Shinjuku Gyoen. Focus on the kid, not the tree – that's the real reason for the trip, right?
