Default Japanese Architecture

I was wondering if and the Mid-A members know of any Japanese Architecture in the area (castles, arches, statues, etc)? I was hoping to get a few shots of my car in front of it but I don’t know where to go. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Thank you,
Ken

China Town in DC = total fial, you want China town, just hang out at any Chinese restaurants and you'll be around more Chinese people then if you go to China Town.

Maybe you can sneak your car into there.

On the contrary - We've got much love for your Z!

Jon was just pointing out the irony about someone suggesting you go to the Chinatown arch when you were looking for Japanese architecture!

This is your car right? Yeah I wasn't hating on the car, but if you want a true JDM themed shoot, the best thing I could recommend is to wait until Spring time next year and get some shots of your car in front of the cherry blossoms down near the tidal basin or something. You would have to get down on Independence Ave. EARLY in the morning during the week, in order to get shots of your car on the side(or in the middle if you're bold enough) of the road.

Hope this helps.
