Tokyo Tower: Japan's Own Eiffel Tower

Wazzup Pilipinas!

There are many beautiful places in Japan. Some examples are Mount Fuji, Himeji Castle, Kamakura, Matsumoto Castle and many more.

From all the beautiful places in Japan, the Tokyo Tower is my favorite. The Tokyo Tower is the second tallest artificial structure in Japan (I'm not really sure what's the tallest tower in Japan). It is approximately 333 meters (1,093 feet) in height before the antenna was damaged by the Tohoku earthquake in 2011. The height of the tower shrank to approximately 315 meters when the antenna was repaired.

It is located in Shiba Park, Minato, Tokyo, Japan. It is said that the construction of the Tokyo Tower started in 1957 and was completed in 1958. One of the things why I like Tokyo Tower the best is because that it looks like the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. Tokyo Tower is white and orange in color.

Some of the Japanese people really love to eat noodles. It is often a substitute for rice meals.
This is an example of a Ramen!

So good right? So lets describe Ramen! Ramen is a noddle dish, consists of Chinese-style wheat noodles served in a meat or fish broth. It is flavored usually by soy sauce or miso with topping like sliced pork, dried seaweed, kamaboko (crab stick), green onions and sometimes they add corn. Ramen is very popular in terms of its deliciousness and of course, because of Naruto series. So try it when you go to Japan! I'm telling you that you wont regret its taste! :)
