Colorful Rebellion, World Clock Art Installation, MOSHI MOSHI BOX in Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan

            The MOSHI MOSHI BOX Harajuku Tourist Information Center 原宿観光案内所 officially closed its doors in January 2019.
 
Since opening in 2015, the MOSHI MOSHI BOX (MMB) has always striven to provide tourist information and aid to sightseers in Harajuku, especially foreign visitors to Japan, by offering official multilingual maps from the Shibuya Tourism Association, guidance in multiple languages, foreign money exchange, baggage storage and more. This enabled the MMB to become recognised as a landmark of Harajuku overseas that is used by countless tourists.

Colorful Rebellion, World Time Clock by Sebastian Masuda.

What has attracted remarkable attention at the MMB is the huge World Clock that decorates the outside of the building. Created by Sebastian Masuda, the clock became a popular photo spot amongst tourists in Harajuku. Many people have posted photos of themselves next to the clock on social media, making it become a monument that symbolises Harajuku culture. There have been many calls for the clock to be preserved, though MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON, unfortunately, confirmed that it would be disassembled — though they couldn’t confirm a date.
