The cutting edge vending machines with facial recognition in Tokyo recommend you what to drink based on your age, gender or something. It would be a waste not to try it and see what you should drink when you visit a station in the metropolis. But what a machine at Shibuya Station recommended me to drink were... I ended up ignoring its suggestion and buying one with a cool bottle cap.

![How Many Trains and Trams Do You See? ~Tokyos Busy Train Schedules~ [iPhone 4S/HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hyNLQ2X2O-s/mqdefault.jpg "How Many Trains and Trams Do You See? ~Tokyos Busy Train Schedules~ [iPhone 4S/HD]
Rail transport is the keystone of urban transport in Japan. A total of over 22 billion people use railroads every year here. This figure ranks first in the world and there is a huge gap to second-place, India, with 8 billion people.
This video was taken at a weekday evening near Oji Station in North Tokyo. It was originally about 20 minutes in length, but cut down to less than 11 minutes. You can see how busy Tokyos train schedules are on it. How many trains and trams do you see?

Hagoita, or Japanese battledores, are a traditional new years toy which has been popular among young girls. It used to be a common sight to see kids playing with them on a street during new years days. It is, however, now becoming rare to come across the scenery in urban areas.
Hagoita also often serve as ornaments. At Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, Tokyo, Hagoita Fair is held every December 17th to 19th. The precincts of Tokyos oldest temple are filled with numerous stalls serving beautifully decorated hagoita. It is very enjoyable to search for your favorite one among their many varieties.

![Haneda Airport (Tokyo International Airport) [iPhone 4S/HD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nIXIH2mIK4s/mqdefault.jpg "Haneda Airport (Tokyo International Airport) [iPhone 4S/HD]
Tokyo area has two major airports. One is Narita Airport and the other is Tokyo International Airport, which is usually called Haneda Airport.
Haneda Airport has been mainly handling domestic flights since Narita Airport, which was initially named New Tokyo International Airport, opened in 1978. However, Narita Airport is located about 60 km away from central Tokyo and not available for takeoffs and landings during the night. The airport is not very accessible or convenient for a lot of travelers.
In the 1990s, the government planned to redevelop Haneda Airport as one of the main international airports in the Tokyo area. It is located beside central Tokyo and is able to handle flights 24 hours a day. A dedicated international terminal was finally opened in 2010.
The terminal has brand new facilities including a unique shopping mall. The mall mocks the streetscape of the Edo Period, which lasted from the begining of 17th century to the middle of 19th century. You can enjoy shopping and meals in the atmosphere of old Japan while waiting for your flight.
Haneda Airport is the 5th busiest airport in the world. Planes take off and land every 2 minutes during rush hour for its large number of domestic flights, while it currently handles only a few international flights. The full-scale operation of international flights at Haneda has just begun. The more advanced development of runways and surrounding facilities is needed urgently.

I came across a small festival while strolling around my neighborhood on a sunny Sunday. I found a stall selling freshly-made mochi there.
Mochi are Japanese rice cakes, which are made by pounding boiled glutinous rice into paste. The process of making mochi is called mochitsuki, which is usually (but not always) held as a year-end ceremony. People once enjoyed mochitsuki at their home, although nowadays it is not very common especially in urban areas. I remember, when I was a kid, my relatives used to gather at my grandfathers home and enjoy mochitsuki together every year-end.
Family mochitsuki is becoming a thing of the past, but it is still popular as an act of festivals and events.
