#2 may actually be Kyoto. Not every slide is labeled, so I have to interpolate sometimes. Sometimes they are actually labeled incorrectly :)

i don't know about back then, but plenty of women play pachinko now. i think in the intervening time, a lot more women have entered the workforce in japan and gained enough disposable income and the freedom to spend it on pachinko.
ian: My favorite thing is the parquet floors.

I live in Tokyo and am obsessed with the size, variation and complexity of the city. I have seen pretty much everything you guys have photographed with my own eyes. Still, everytime I look at Ian and Jeeffs pictures it I notice something new or different it always blows me away. Fantastic!
cnt: It's not Nara, it's Kiyomizu-dera temple in Kyoto.

cnt, thanks. I think some of the photos may be incorrectly labeled. I've been going back and correcting them.
