Shimbashi Clock

After our visit to the Tsukiji Fish Market on April 2, we walk about 20 minutes to see the Shimbashi Clock.  This is a very large outdoor cuckoo style clock that gives an almost 4 minute performance thru-out the day at 10 am, noon, 3, 6, & 8 pm.  This clock reminds us of a "Tim Burton" style (The Nightmare Before Christmas).  There are so many moving parts on this clock, it's hard to watch it all.  Go to this link and watch the video of the performance.  www.youtube.com/watch?v=lm0ZIjzqXlU
