Show notes

Takeshita Street, located in Harajuku, Tokyo, is a bustling pedestrian-only street known for its fashion boutiques, cafés, and restaurants. In the recording, made in late October 2024, you can hear the sounds of footsteps, lively conversations, and a mix of languages. This constant flow of people and linguistic diversity reveals the dynamic nature of the street, where the coexistence of so many languages in one place evokes the idea of a contemporary Tower of Babel — a place where different cultures intersect and connect. Recorded by Gus - On Collector.
