| lao_ren100 (kinda' busy) posted a photo: Another great Edo era building, still in use. Yanaka is an area in Taito-ku, in NE Tokyo. It was untouched by WWII and remains a district of narrow streets, small buildings, old houses and temples. History is very present there, among its restaurants and craft and art galleries. It is generally quiet and intimate, and would be where I would live if I stayed in Tokyo for awhile. Yanaka is a vestige of old Edo. |

| FUNVERDE posted a photo: TOKYO - JUNE 02: A man works at a plant factory at Ozu Corporation on June 2, 2009 in Tokyo, Japan. Vegetables produced in the plant factories have completely controlled lighting, temperature, humidity and water, that enables the growth of safe foods and guarantees stable production throughout the year with stable quality. It uses no agricultural chemicals as there are no insects inside the factories therefor the food is safe and clean without washing and gives less waste. The plant factories are expected to solve some of the issues which Japanese agriculture is facing, the average age of agricultural worker in Japan is 65 and only 5% are under 40 years old.
