I just touched down at Narita Airport at 7pm local time after a long 7 hours flight from Malaysia. I go straight to Ueno where my hotel is situated. After put my luggage, I went out to hunt for food and have a view of Ueno. I went to eat pork rice near the Ueno JR Station.

After had my dinner, I go walk around Ueno for around. I just simply walk here and there. Suddenly I came to a place where a lot of Yakuza standing outside. It scare the shit out of me and I quickly go away from there. They tried to talk to me but the problem was I don’t understand what they saying. When I speak in English, they quickly ignored me. Here is some photos I took in Ueno.

Well as you can see here, most shops are closed. Shops in Japan close as early as 8pm. By the time I reached there, those shops already closed.
