You obviously have it out for new york. This was between La and Ny and you bring up asian cities. What did that have to do with anything. People from tokyo and shanghai will be just as amazed as people from iowa. Time square is a collection of entertainment, food, shopping etc. Theres simply no comparison to it, anywhere in the world. To say it is ordinary just gives ya hate away. Nobody in their right mind would say ts was ordinary unless they were just trying to be differant. Thats laughable. I dont care how many similar areas asia has. None of them are better or as famous. So its not even worth mentioning
La live still has some ways to go before we could even mention it in the same sentence. But i think their on to something
I have not been to both so I am sure I am as uninformed as most.
I probably have a little better idea since I have been to at least one of them though.
As a native New Yorker i found no reason at all to go to Times Square.
Times Square is for tourists, if you live in NYC I am sure you find almost no reason to go there.
A better comparison would perhaps be Hollywood, or at least the corner of Hollywood and Highland; that seems kind of like a (admittedly much smaller) version of Times Square and, currently at least, seems to have more in common with Times Square than does LA Live (including the gentrification element and name recognition factor)
No Shibuya is very similar busy and entertainment district in Tokyo. I don't know if it's called Shibuya terminal. But it is called Shibuya.
Shibuya. Lol, it sounds almost Italian. Shi-buya lotsa pasta for da dinner!
