As summer wanes, the old Harajuku Station quietly marks the passage of time. Its wooden structure exudes warmth, briefly capturing the hearts of those who pass by. On a sun-drenched afternoon, the path in front buzzes with laughter from young people clad in vibrant outfits, their energy reminiscent of fleeting youth. Leaning against the station's walls, the mingling scents of cedar and the overcast sky evoke a bittersweet nostalgia. The calls of cicadas resonate, reviving memories of days gone by. When autumn breezes begin to tint the surrounding maple leaves red, a deeper sense of nostalgia settles in. As night falls, warm light spills from the station’s windows, illuminating the streets, while the gentle ticking of the station clock creates a feeling of suspended time. This wooden station is not merely a transit hub but a nurturing presence that envelops the memories of its visitors, enriching their hearts with echoes of the past. This is one of the hundred summers that the old Harajuku Station has quietly witnessed, where the comforting scent of wood remains rooted in the air, calling forth dreams of yesteryears.
