Tokyo, Japan: Tokyo After Dark

As with any other cosmopolitan city, Tokyo is literally bustling with life around the clock. After dark, head to Shibuya for some people-watching or Roppongi for a touch of class.

Prepare to brave the insane crowd at The Great Shibuya Crossing - I stand in awe at how fast the crowd can gather and disperse

Starbucks offers a brief respite from the hustle.

Don't forget to say Hi to Hachiko of 'Hachi: A Dog's Tale' fame. He is now a designated meeting spot.

And while the night is still young, escape to the bright lights of Roppongi.

Spot Tokyo Tower in the distance?

Roppongi is a very classy (and romantic) district, dolled up with the Christmas lights.

I had a 'nut-cracking' good winter in Tokyo, and I hope you did, too, wherever you were.
