Especially, Kenneth is a great man, and he could converse in about 50 languages.
He said a great words that "When you lose a language, you lose a culture, intellecttual wealth, a work of art. It's like dropping a bomb on a museum, the Louvre."

Ooedo-Onsen-Monogatari(大江戸温泉物語)

Ooedo-Onsen-Monogatari, located in the popular Daiba area, opened in 2003 as Tokyo’s first and only onsen (hot springs) theme park. Inside the building, constructed in traditional Japanese style, there are baths fed by natural hot springs pumped from 1,400 meters underground, open-air baths perfect for enjoying fine weather or starry night skies, a foot bath set in a large Japanese-style garden, and plenty of other bathing facilities. There is also a re-creation of a traditional street from the days when Tokyo was called Edo to offer visitors an authentic onsen experience that is sure to be one of the highlights of their trip to Japan.

I think there is a good place for a tour or a day trip.

Rekijyo

I have not update my blog for a long time,I am sorry.

Today,I want to introduce you a new word in Japanese.
It's "Rekijyo". Do you kown it???

The term rekijyo,or "history girls",is used in the Japanese media to describe women from their late teens to mid twenties are stuling themselves on a bygone era and taking a tenewed interest in history.

Historical sites and re-enactments are becoming increasingly popular with the women eager to capture a sense of theia country's past.

The interest may be a backlash to the emergence of a group called"herbivorous men"who are gentle, foppish and unaggressive, prompting some young women to seek out at least the notion of the historical equivalent of the traditional male action hero.
