Enka star Jero performing at the Uchinada Peaceful World Kite Festival on May 4th, 2008. Includes interview by reporter from Ishikawa Television. (I would translate the interview, but there's so much surrounding noise that I can't hear what they're saying.)Cameras were not allowed at this event, so I had to do my best to conceal mine while still getting a decent video. Sorry for the lack of quality, I tried my best. Also, the camera picked up the surrounding people's voices, which were annoyingly loud. JERO Performs at...

Eu, Kio, Natalia, Andre, Silvia (Dolly) dando uma volta em Nikko (na provincia de Tochigi), no fim de semana.Muito frio nesse dia, pena que o tempo estava fechado, nublado. Linda a ponte na Entrada da Montanha, a agua muito limpa, clara. Outubro, 2005Driving down Mt. Tsubakuro. A very cold day! Red Leaves, Autumn Colors, Wonderful place to go and enjoy the Nature!Shinkyō (神橋). This much-photographed red bridge separates the shrines from the town of Nikko. In feudal times, only the shogun was permitted to cross the bridge, and even today it's barred from pedestrian traffic — although there's a 4-lane highway rumbling right past. After scaffolding in 2004, the bridge can now be admired in full again. Shinkyo -the sacred bridge-Vermilion lacquered sacred bridge; the beautiful Shinkyo is worth enough to decorate the entrance of sanctuary Nikko. The Shinkyo is also called Yamasugeno-jabashi, which means snake bridge of sedge. This bridge belongs to Futarasan Shrine and is designated as an important cultural property. In addition, Shinkyo was registered as the World Heritage in December 1999.Shinkyo is 28 meters long, 7.4 meters wide, and located 10.6 meters above the river. Ten main pillars are built on the rail, and top of each pillar is decorated. Opposite side of the bridge girder is black lacquered, while whole other parts are vermilion lacquered.Establishment of Shinkyo is full of mystery, but is respected as a sacred bridge. Shinkyo was rebuilt in 1636 and became today's appearance. After that, Shinkyo had been opened to only Generals and messengers from the imperial court. Instead, temporary bridge was opened to ordinary people.Shinkyo opened its door to the general public in 1973 for the purpose of preparing upcoming event. The event was held in 1982 for the celebration of the1200th anniversary that Mt. Nantai was enshrined in 782. Shinkyo has had a big reforming period since 1997. Shinkyo is the oldest bridge in Japan in terms of drawbridge style built over the gorge. Also, Shinkyo is known as one of the finest three bridges (Kintaikyo Bridge in Yamaguchi prefecture, Saruhashi Bridge in Yamanashi pref.) in Japan. Nikko - Shinkyo...
Depois de descermos a montanha, uma passada pelo grande lago Chuzenji e o Torii de Nikko.Lake Chuzenji is located in the Nikko National Park, which sits on the prefectures of Tochigi, Gunma and Fukushima. The area is particularily scenic and popular during the koyo (autumn leaves) season.The lake is 161m deep and was created by an erruption of Mount Nantai (2482m), a sacred volcano which god is enshrined in Futarasan-jinja (see below). The Chuzenji Onsen is one of the most popular hotspring resorts with Tokyo residents, aside from Hakone and the Izu Peninsula.You can walk around the lake, take boat tours or hike from the Ryuzu Falls at the north-western end of the lake to Yumoto Onsen (about 3 hours).Watch out for the monkeys as they love to snatch anything they can from unwary tourists, like handbags, cameras or wallets. They can also be aggressive, so keep your distance and do not try to feed them or attract their attention. Nikko, Japan -The...

Aproveitamos a subida na montanha Akechidaira para passear de Teleferico.Pena que, pelo horario, ja estava escurecendo... os detalhes da vista nao puderam ser capturados pela camera. A vista eh divina. Ao longe, as cachoeiras... a cidade, o lago.Altura aproximada: 2500 m acima do nivel do mar.The Akechidaira Ropeway started its operation in 1933, and ended in 1943. However, business started again in 1950. It takes 3 minutes from Akechidaira plateau to observatory. Also, it goes up to an altitude of 1473 meters. There will be the path, which extends to the Lake Chuzenji after you passed the observatory. It takes you an hour and half to arrive the Lake Chuzenji. You will find a red tower after 20 minutes walk, and there will be a good view around there. In addition, that area is the best place to see pink azalea. Nikko, Japan -...

Liz and Dave came to visit us in Japan and I decided the best way to record our vacation would be to tape everything we did for no more than two seconds. I wasn't very sure how it would come out and some takes had to be longer than two seconds, but I think the end result is effective. Cindy and I traveled from our home towns in Fukushima prefecture on Tuesday, March 20th to Tokyo, where we met Liz and Dave at the hostel. The next day we went to Kyoto to do some sightseeing for a few days. Then we went to Himeji Castle in Hyogo prefecture. We followed that up with a trip to Koyasan - a Buddhist retreat - for one night. Our last full day together we spent traveling by train back to Tokyo. Liz and Dave left Japan on March 26th.Highlights of our trip : We visited Kyoto Tower, Sanjusangen-do temple, Kiyomizu temple, Rokuon-ji temple (more commonly known as From Tokyo to...
