Akashi Global City Revisited
IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE: I would like to apologize if some entries (Vanilla... -> Shipping...) lack images. I will no longer update/reupload those images because it is too many... Please understand. Hahahaha. Also, I could not locate some of the pics that I used in my hard drive which makes things worse. Anyhow, rest assured that the following entries after this will no longer use photobucket to avoid such hassle.

Helloooooooooooooo! *waves cheerfully*

The annoying blond is here.
Oh well, as promised, I came back to update this cj. Hmm, I hope you are not really getting tired me and all my randomness. Otherwise, I will really cry. ![]()
Well, well, well. Anyhow. Nothing has been really much up to be anticipated for this week, this is quite an old news but I still want to share it. Can you believe it, this guy actually survived the vote of no confidence??? Oh god, what is happening to Teiko's politics. I think I might need to go for a break.

Now, let us not stick to much into that otherwise I might go berserk mode again! So for this weeks update, hmm, let me think, what was that again? Nah, wait... Eh... Oh yeah, I'm taking you to my office. No jokes, no witty bits just windows. Eh? Never mind what I just said. So yeah, I'm taking you to my office which is *rumbles pocket to find business card*, on Akashi Global District *continued rumpling of pocket*. Oh god nevermind! Let's just take a tour around Akashi Global District, that would be better! ![]()
So how many of you remembered this image? This was taken a few months back then.

Akashi Global City (February)
Now, this place have totally undergone a metamorphosis.

Akashi Global City (February)
Hey, I can see my office now!
Anyhow, I still don't remember the address. Ministry of Internal and External Communication (MICE) had just recently moved here and I'm still quite unsure of the road names. So let me grab this map... Uh where is it.. *sigh* Oh it's here.

Map of Akashi Global City.
As you can see this place has totally gone wild! So where do we start walking? Nah, never mind. Here are some cool places to hangout and to see in Akashi Global City.
This shrine is the heart of Akashi Global City and that building to the left is my office. Nyahaha. How can I ever forget this address. This might be the result of overworking or I'm just plainly stupid. Well whatever suits the weather.

Ministry of Internal and External Communications Office and AGC Shrine.
A few walk from my office you will be able to see Metropolitan Mall. Oh those good box-type malls you see in nearly every district in Teiko. Well, Metro Mall is the largest mall chain the country (so far).

Metro Mall @ Akashi Global District
Well Metro Mall is the one of the four major retail districts in Akashi Global City. I think this place is really saturated with malls but as of the recent count, Kamizaki has now a total population of 165,000 (estimate), making it the most populous district in Teiko Metropolitan Area.
Here are some few landmarks around this side Akashi Global City.

Grand hotel is to the left, and that building in the right is the HQ of Teiko Airways, currently the second tallest building in the vicinity.

Mandarin Oriental AGC (right) and National Archives and Peyton-Stepford-Troy Embassy (left)

GT Center, home of Teiko's Sumala Banking Corporation (TSBC), Teiko's fourth largest bank. I personally love to see building from my office, it looks cool with all those wavy sides. ![]()

Now this one is closer to my office, the first flagship stand alone store of Debenhams in Teiko.

Another mall in AGC, this one is for those who are looking for al fresco dining and luxury, beat me to it, you're looking for Louis Vuitton? Hermes? Givenchy? They all have them here, that is why I don't often visit this place! ![]()
Ok so those are some major landmarks on the eastern side of Akashi Global City. Now, moving more to the west, we can see some developments too but on a much shorter scale, I mean literally, the buildings are way too short, I guess balance of probability?
The most prominent place is Lifestyle District. It is the newest hangout place for youth and those feeling youth. ![]()

Main building of the compound housing shops, restaurants and night bars.
Another landmark in this side of the land development is the Asiatown IT Park. It's called asiatown because it really looks like so Asian. ![]()

Asiatown IT Park facing the Teiko Interstate. Toyota dealership can be seen on the lower right.

Currently this is the latest project in this area, a strip of restaurants and shops called CityWalk. So far only three restos have opened yet.

CityWalk, the first retail development of Sumimoto Properties, a land development giant specializing in residential properties.
To finally cap this off, here are some few more noticeable developments around the whole area.

The Residences @ Akashi Global City, the first highrise residential development in the vicinity.

LTU Arena, the largest stadium to be constructed in Teiko to date. I heard I'm going to have a concert here, oops, just kidding, I'm not even a singer but I love karaoke, I'll invite you too sometime.

Health care? Not a problem in AGC. Teiko Medical Center, a world-class hospital run by the government and is free for all (of course unless you aren't paying your tax!) ![]()

Education? Not a problem either.
Well as you can see, Akashi Global City has really been constructed to fulfill its purpose - a feat of civic transformation in the heart of Teiko.

Akashi Global City - "The Home of the Passionate Minds"
Now, why in hell am I even endorsing this place? Heh, must be because I work here. Anyhow, here is just one reason to consider when living here. If you look closely to the map, in the upper left is the Imperial Palace, the official residence of the Teiko premier. As long as you can handle living close to a politician, then why not? ![]()

But don't worry here is an view that will surely make you want to live in this place.

Row houses along Park Avenue overlooking norther AGC, to the upper left is Teiko Japanese School and to the far right is AGC business hub.
Well I hope you like the travel around Akashi Global City, for information, the whole place is actually not developed yet. Around 30% of the place is still barren, I wonder when will buildings rise in those areas. Now, I better get to work or else you know what will happen.
I hope to see you again in the coming episodes, Ja mata!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE UNDYING SUPPORT, SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
TEiKO. IT'S MORE FUN HERE!
