JP- 332743


A postcrossing postcard from Japan. The card was written in Japanese so I couldn't understand it. I did some research and found out that it shows Miyajima also known as Itsukushima an island in the western part of Japan. The trees are maple trees which turn a bright crimson red in autumn.

Tokyo Night View





This is one of two postcards from Japan which sent by my penpal Aya.  It shows a very fascinating skyline of Tokyo with all those tall buildings.  Reminds me of the movie Godzilla.
