Rinku Town
1
More of Rinku Town in Osaka, a silent town where you can find peace away from the big cities. In my last photo article about Rinku Town and the Kansai Institute I didn’t show this side of Rinku Town.
My friends from the Institute ^^; before going to Japan, I imagined that everywhere I looked at would be filled with countless working ants. To my surprise, on my first day I went out, I found out that there are many places in Japan that are exactly the opposite. I mean, look at the picture above, not a single pedestrian (excluding my group), not a single car, not a single bike…
Building in the background is the Rinku Gate Tower building, the second tallest in Japan. We’re also not too far away from the Kansai International Airport. Never expected the place to be so quiet!
Bamboo park in the vicinity. Again, not a single soul on a beautiful summer day. Besides landmark sight-seeing and traversing crowded cities, I really enjoy peaceful times in Japan — such as the ones in these pictures. If you enjoy them like me, then you will definitely love fellow Jblogger Michael Flux’s photo shoots at MichaelFlux.com:
Photo above is an example of his great pictures from one if his Around the City articles.
Do you prefer quiet towns or prefer the noisy Japanese nightlife? ^^

Hmm, which do I prefer… Thats a hard one. On one hand I absolutely love big busy cities and would love to live in the center of the action all the time. But on the other hand I love how nice and quiet it is in the “suburbs” of Japan. I propose an apartment in the center of the city, and a house somewhere on the outskirts :)
