Hachiko

Here is a famous Tokyo landmark. The Hachiko statue. It's a heartwarming story of a dog that loves his owner so much that it would wait for him every day until he got off from work and would exit at this train station. *Spoiler Alert* The dude dies and the dog keeps waiting there anyway. Soon to be released as a major motion picture starring Richard Gere.

Anyway, they made a statue to commemorate the real dog, and now this is used by many Japanese as a meeting spot and a touristy photo-op. The problem with a famous meeting spot in a city of over 12 million people is that around rush hour so many people are using this statue as a meeting point that it actually becomes very difficult to find who you're looking for. I took this picture early in the day before it got really crowded.
