The morning begins with a ride on the Usuzan Ropeway to enjoy the views from Mount Usu, an active volcano, which has erupted four times in the past 100 years, most recently in the year 2000. Mt. Usu is a 737-meter high active volcano that was formed to the south of Lake Toya, Hokkaido, about 20,000 years ago. At the foot of the mountain, rose Showa-shinzan, a Special Natural Monument of Japan, during the period from 1943 to 1945. The two mountains are protected as part of Shikotsu-Toya National Park. Mount Usu and Lake Toya joined the Global Geopark Network as “Toya Caldera and Usu Volcano Geopark,” which is one of the three Global Geoparks in Japan. The 106-passenger gondola brings you close to the volcano's summit. The upper station's observation deck offers panoramic views of Lake Toya and neighboring Showa Shinzan. From a second observation deck a short walk away, there are views of the ocean and Mount Usu's largest crater, which was formed in an eruption in 1977. Have you ever seen a bear standing up and waving at you? Well, you can see them here at the Show-shinzan Bear Ranch where we will be visiting next. Brown bears are the largest species of animals in Hokkaido and worshiped by Ainu, the native Hokkaido people, as the God. There are approximately 2,000 brown bears in Hokkaido and the number reported to be on the decline. There are approximately 100 bears being bred here of various ages. At the bear ranch souvenir shop, a couple of popular items are bear oil, which is used for dry skin as well as treating small sores and horse oil cream. Lunch is next, Japanese lunch at a local restaurant. This afternoon we are off to Lake Toya, part of the Shikotsu-Toya National Park. In addition to the lake itself, the Toyako region features hot springs and an active volcano, Mt. Usu. As if the landscape in Hokkaido couldn’t get any more beautiful, the natural beauty of Lake Toya will not soon be forgotten. As you walk around the lake, enjoy the views of Nakajima Islands and Mount Yotei in the distance. The Lake Toya area is incredibly beautiful, and especially during the fall when the leaves are changing to shades of yellow and orange Once here we are off to enjoy a boat cruise on the lake. Lake Toya is an ice-free lake, it never freezes, even in winter when the temperature falls quite drastically. There is a little island called Nakano-shima in the middle of the lake, and on it is the Toya-ko Lake Forest Museum, which is a part of the sightseeing boat route. Trout and smelt fishing are very popular sports in and around the lake. Next, a visit to the popular Kombukan Kelp Shop and Museum. In Japan, konbu is only gathered in Hokkaido and Touhoku. Long ago, konbu was gathered in Hokkaido and shipped all over the country using a water route called "Konbu Road". A total of 120,000 tons is produced every year within the country. 95% of that amount is gathered along the coastal lines of Hokkaido. In Japan, there are 45 different species of konbu. This facility has a planetarium-like movie theater, museum and a shop that sells a variety of kelp products.

    Search Search Go S’porean Harvard scholar & equity fund associate takes to Tokyo streets as Japan’s 1st foreign oiran The most elegant performer there, if we do say so ourselves. By Yeo Kaiqi | 22 hours 184 Here’s something cool that you might not have heard about that happened late last month. While all of us were busy getting mad about the presidential (s)election, Singaporean Rachel Leng was getting out there and making a name for us in a pretty interesting way. According to The Japan News, one of Japan’s five national newspapers, the 27-year-old was selected to perform as one of five oiran of the annual Shinagawa Shukuba Matsuri festival, an annual cultural event held in Tokyo, Japan. Here she is, second from the left: Photo via Rachel Leng’s Facebook post Advertisement You can see her walking elegantly down the street in super high wooden platform clogs here. In this video in particular, she demonstrates a distinctive style called “soto hachimonji”, in which the walker’s feet trace a sideways arc on the ground: But first, what’s an oiran, and what’s this festival? An oiran is a Japanese prostitute who was very popular and highly regarded mostly for her beauty — not to be confused with the better-known term geisha, who is very skilled in song, dance, playing an instrument, and otherwise entertaining guests. Leng appears in the “Oiran Dochu”, one of the main attractions of the Shinagawa Shukuba Matsuri, which celebrates the history of Shinagawa during the Edo period and its role in making Tokyo the city it is today, by re- creating the din and bustle of the Shinagawa ward back then.

  • PICTURES of the FLOATING WORLD an Exploration of the World of the Yoshiwara, 吉原
    Cherry Blossom in the Yoshiwara by Yoshikazu PICTURES OF THE FLOATING WORLD An exploration of the world of the Yoshiwara, 吉原 PICTURES OF THE FLOATING WORLD In the nightless city Floating free from life’s cares Picture memories Haiku Keith Oram INTRODUCTION Japanese woodblock prints that recorded the Ukiyo, the ‘Floating World’ of the Yoshiwara of Edo city were so numerous that during the nineteenth century they were used to wrap ceramics exported to Europe. This practice provided some European artists with their first proper encounter with these beautifully created images. The impact on western art of their bold colours and sensuous line was quite significant influencing many artists of the avant gard. The story of those prints, however, began much earlier in the seventeenth century. First a little background history. The battle of Sekigahara in 1600 and the fall of Osaka in 1615 allowed Tokugawa Ieyasu to gain complete control of Japan. He had been made Shogun, supreme military leader, in 1603, but the fall of Osaka was the final action that gave him complete control. Almost his first act was to move the capital from Kyoto, the realm of the Emperor, to Edo, now Tokyo. This backwater town, now the new capital, grew very quickly into a large town. Tokugawa Iemitsu, Shogun 1623-51, required the daimyo of Japan, local rulers and warlords, to remain in Edo every other year, but when they returned to their fiefs he made them leave their families in the capital. This ‘hostage’ style management, sankin tokai, helped to maintain the peace. The other affect was that the daimyo needed to build large homes in Edo for their families.

  • Extreme Japan
    Extreme Japan At its roots, Japan has two deities who represent opposite extremes – Amaterasu, a Nigitama (peaceful spirit), and Susanoo, an Aratama (wrathful spirit). The dichotomy can be seen reflected in various areas of the culture. There is Kinkaku-ji (the Golden Pavilion) to represent the Kitayama culture, and Ginkaku-ji (the Silver Pavilion) to represent the Higashiyama culture. Kabuki has its wagoto (gentle style) and aragoto (bravura style). There are the thatched huts of wabicha (frugal tea ceremony) as opposed to the golden tea ceremony houses. Japan can be punk – flashy and noisy. Or, it can be bluesy – deep and tranquil. Add to flash, the kabuki way. Subtract to refine, the wabi way. Just don’t hold back - go to the extreme.Either way, it’s Japan.

    Japón: Identidad, identidades (III) ISSN: 2254- 8300 LAS MUJERES DE YOSHIWARA: PLACER, POBREZA Y LUJO EN EL JAPÓN FEUDAL Carmen Álvarez González-Jubete Master Oficial en Estudios de Asia Oriental (Universidad de Granada) [email protected] Federico Fco. Pérez Garrido Máster en Asia Oriental/Estudios Japoneses (Universidad de Salamanca) [email protected] Resumen: La historia y la literatura japonesa están repletas de arquetipos masculinos que reflejan la evolución cultural y política de este país asiático: la tradición encarnada en el valiente samurái fiel a su señor, el difícil proceso de ruptura que sobrevino sobre escritores e intelectuales a partir de la época Meiji, o la vida anodina del oficinista dedicado en cuerpo y alma a su trabajo. En contraposición a esta variedad de perfiles masculinos, la figura femenina que nos ha sido transmitida presenta un rol aparentemente estático e inmutable en el tiempo: delicadas geishas sirviendo té, lolitas sonrientes posando para una foto, madres y esposas entregadas a la crianza y educación de sus hijos. La imagen de la mujer parece circunscribirse al espacio doméstico y estético de la historia japonesa. Sin embargo, si nos alejamos voluntariamente de estas imágenes tradicionales y ahondamos en la historia, se pueden descubrir otros modelos femeninos: mujeres fuertes que tuvieron que sobrevivir en un ambiente social hostil, y que jugaron un papel central en la vida cultural y política de la época. Dentro de la cultura de la armonía y la perfección, se encontraban las llamadas oiran: mujeres que ejercieron su actividad en el ya desaparecido barrio de placer de Yoshiwara, en la antigua Edo.
