  • The K-Museum in Odaiba is a delightfully unique structure and about as postmodern as a building gets. It is no longer functioning as a museum but as a piece of architecture or almost a sculpture, its design still draw viewers and get them wondering  what the hell it is, or was.  Designed by architect Makoto Sei Watanabe, who has designed several other museums, as well as corporate and university structures throughout the Japan. The K-Museum was built in 1996 as part of the first wave of construction in Odaiba, located in Tokyo Bay and made of landfill.  When the economic bubble burst, the museum closed without having had exhibits about the urban infrastructure of Tokyo. The building was left stranded in the middle of abandoned fields, weeds and unfinished walkways. The building's reflective surfaces, contours and cubes let us reconsider what a building can be.

  • Admiral Matthew Perry appeared in Tokyo Bay in 1853 during the closing days of the Tokugawa shogunate. The shogun didn't have large ships to defend itself from an attack by the foreign warships. So it divised batteries off the coast of Shinagawa Tokyo. In the end, they went unused and were neglected. They were known as Shinagawa Daiba. The batteries lasted until the Showa period,though only the two best preserved remain. They were designated national historic sites and was opened to the public as Daiba Park.

  • Palette Town is a multi-faceted entertainment and shopping experience like no other. The name comes from the idea that, like the range of colors on a painter's palette, there is something here for everyone. The Giant Sky Wheel is Odaiba's most conspicuous attraction. With a diameter of 100 meters, this is one of the largest Ferris wheels in the world. Just as impressive as the size is the wheel's beautiful night-time light performance, when it presents 120 kaleidoscopic variations on sixteen basic patterns.

  • Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating has Western roots, but in recent years Halloween has become popular in Japan.  Wookies, batwomen, unicorns, vampires and vampirettes, not to mention a smattering of cosplayers decked out in new rags.  Japan is a serious contender in the halloween costume game.  Large events are held the last week of October, from Tokyo Halloween at Odaiba, to Shibuya Costume Street Party.  Originally the only Halloween events in Japan were when bands of westerners took over the Yamanote Line in Tokyo around Halloween midnight trying to spook ordinary commuter passengers for fun.  The fun has caught on.
