	Tokyo/Odaiba - Wikitravel
		Odaiba (お台場) is a large artificial island in Tokyo, Japan, featuring many hypermodern and just plain strange buildings memorably described as the result of an acid-soaked pre-schooler's architecture class.
		Odaiba was originally constructed in 1853 by the Tokugawa shogunate as a series of 6 fortresses in order to protect Tokyo from attack by sea, the primary threat being Commodore Matthew Perry's Black Ships, which had arrived in the same year.
		The Japanese economy was riding high, and Odaiba was to be a showcase as futuristic living, built at a cost of over $10 billion.
