Akihabara-秋葉原-



Akihabara, or "Akiba" for short, is a massively popular shopping district of Tokyo, Japan.







It is the go-to place for anything and everything related to electronics, anime, manga, clothes, costumes, and even robotics


However, it is also known, from a foreigner's perspective, as one of the strangest places in Japan




It is not uncommon to see high school girls dressed as maids walking the streets of Akiba.


I don't think that he is looking at the map...
