The Crazy Glasses Shop in Tokyo
There is a bizarre and almost myth-like store that sells glasses in Tokyo. The store used to be a second-hand recycling shop about ten years ago but it has reinvented itself and now limits itself to only selling glasses. Here, you can find sunglasses and prescription glasses dirt cheap.
But the aspect of this store that we really want to share is the facade of the shop. The pictures above and below of sunglasses in array are not displayed inside the store but rather is the facade of the building. The hundreds of glasses hanged on display outside the shop are lit up by a single light in the middle. It’s a great spot to capture the bizarre side of Tokyo and Japanese culture.
