They are made of <i>mochi </i>rice, <i>anko </i>(<i>azuki </i>bean paste) and natural ingredients. <i>Wa </i>refers to Japanese things, and <i>gashi </i>(<i>kashi</i>) means confections. Making <i>wagashi </i>is an art that involves the five senses. The taste and texture are unique. The colours and designs usually represent images from nature. I took these photos in a <i>wagashi-ya</i> in Noda-shi. Every single day they would change the products on their shelves, depending on the temperature, light, seasonal details hardly visible to the common passer-by. The aroma is subtle.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This is a special place in the Shinto religion. The
two rocks are located in the sea off Futami in Mie Prefecture, and they are
joined by a rope of rice straw called <i>shimenawa</i>.
They represent the union of the Shinto deities Izanagi and Izanami. The bigger
rock is the male. And the rope weighs more than a tonne. It is
beautiful to see the sun rising between them. Even Mount Fuji can be seen in
the distance. The shrine nearby is dedicated to Miketsu, the food goddess. There
are many statues of frogs around the shrine. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

ornamental. <i>Koi</i> has been bred in Japan since the 1820s. The red-and-white
pattern is called <i>Kohaku</i>. <i>Koi</i> is a homophone for a word that means love or
affection, so the fish is a symbol of love and friendship in Japan. They can
live for 50 to 100 years.</span> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Korakuen is a famous landscape garden in Okayama. It
is one of the three most known gardens of Japan. The beautiful Okayama Castle is just nearby. On the day when I went there, I met nine couples of brides and grooms - all taking wedding photos in this superbly designed park. Just some photos for you to feel the atmosphere, and my apologies for a long gap in posting here. I know some of you are checking daily for updates. I will again post more often from now on.

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In Japan it is common to sign any document with a
tiny stamp instead of using a pen. The signing space on the Japanese documents
is usually small because this personal name stamp is used. It is called a <i>hanko</i>.
Or <i>inkan</i>. Or maybe the tool is called a <i>hanko</i>, and the stamp
itself (applied on paper) is the <i>inkan</i>. It is quite the same thing. There
are so many types of <i>hanko</i>. It can be made of wood or metal, it comes even
in red or green, it is round or square. Maybe the square ones are used more in
business environment, and the round ones are less official and more โpersonal.โ
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Everybody in Japan is likely to have at least one
such stamp. Some people have more than one <i>inkan</i>. As far as I know, one
must register their <i>inkan</i> in order to use it officially. Of course, the surname
written in kanji is there. I have heard of foreigners who live in Japan even
for years without having an <i>inkan</i>. Such โabnormalitiesโ are
understandable with foreigners. :-p Then, there are <i>inkan</i> written in
<i>katakana </i>for foreigners โ it is such a welcoming feeling towards foreigners in
Japan in general. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The price varies according to the material it is
made of. I have read about an <i>inkan</i> made of mammoth tusk that costs more
than 1 million yen. ^ ^ Though the average price is about 20 euro. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

They can be found in all the tourist spots, museums, shops, train stations, even some unexpected places. I have 100s of them and these are some randomly chosen examples. During one trip I met a Japanese man who would carry his notebook along everywhere. There were more than 2,000 stamps in it at that time. ^ ^<br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">It is located 30 km north of Kyoto. There are about 250
thatched-roof houses and many of them are old dwellings where people still live. A
visit here is a chance to experience the traditional feel of rural Japan. There
is a museum as well, and also a shop selling delicious rice bread. I love the shape of these roofs, I am grateful to the friends who took me there. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

a reservation made well in advance by mail. There are about 120 varieties of
moss in its garden. Before visiting the garden, it is obligatory to</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> participate to the <i>shakyo </i>โ copying of Buddhist
scriptures. It remains an unforgettable memory for me. Though I have talked about it earlier, I am uploading new photos tonight. Moss has a special place in Japanese culture and I remember having seen one episode of "Begin Japanology" dedicated to it. Moss is <i>koke </i>in Japanese, hence the name <i>Kokedera</i>. Moss gardens are so refined. Because I love moss, one very special friend made the booking and offered me the incredible chance to visit such a wonderful place. I am so grateful. </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">ใฉใใใใใใจใใใใใพใใใ</span></span></div>

I knew from a distance it is one sculpture by Rodin, unmistakably his from any angle. He is of course much appreciated even in Japan, same as elsewhere. The Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art exhibits 32 of the artist's bronzes. </div>

Japanese ice cream is particularly tasty. And it comes in so many flavours. An interesting one was the lavender ice cream in Hokkaido. The Furano lavender field may explain that. (^_^)<br />
<br />
This is a shop near the Hanshin Earthquake Museum on Awaji Island. <i>Biwa </i>or loquat is sometimes called the Japanese medlar or the Japanese plum. The fruit is small, 3-5 cm long. The leaves are dried to make <i>biwa cha</i>, recommended for a beautiful skin.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In January I mentioned the restaurant in Tono in a
couple of posts. It is located in a village designated as natural cultural
property and local dishes can be enjoyed inside, the <i>hittsumi </i>soup included.
It is an old building, with a thick roof and a rustic atmosphere inside. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
