To date, I have seven travel articles at JapanTourist. Six of them are kaiju-related.
They appear to have been well-received by readers. The administrators are pleased with them as they provide a different "take" on tourist attractions in Japan. For the baby-boomer generation, their first exposure to Japan and Japanese culture had been through monster movies such as Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra and others.
Information on the monster locations/landmarks are provided in The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan.
Here's a list of the articles with links to each:
Tsukiji Central Wholesale Market
Tokyo Tower, The Monster Magnet
Shibuya: Where Monsters Meet
Fukuoka Tower
Lucky Dragon No. 5
Ginza-Hibiya's Monster Connection
Rodan's Saikai Bridge
