Flea Market city..

Allegedly, Flea Markets earned their name from the flea infested clothes and rags sold at an outdoor bazaar held in the northern suburbs of Paris in the late 17th century. Today, the tradition continues, hopefully minus the fleas of course, most weekends at the events part of Yoyogi park. These pics were taken last Monday, which was a public holiday here in Japan, and as you can see the market was very well attended despite the searing heat and humidity..

Bridgers

A great vantage point from which to watch just about any action that goes down at NHK park. The main Yoyogi bridge offers safety, anonymity, and somewhat of a birds eye view of everyones favorite festival and flea market venue..

The Flea Marketeers

There's a bi-monthly Flea Market down at NHK park, these are from a couple of weeks ago, it was pretty crowded (and cold!).
