Traveling the Yodo River upward from the Osaka Bay through the narrow area between Mt. Tenno, the famous warfield of Battle of Yamazaki that determined the future of this country, and Mt. Otoko, the home of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine, one of the three major hachimangu shrines in Japan, the city sits where three rivers of the Katsura, the Uji and the Kizu merge and form the Yodo River. On west, Kyoto Nishiyama Mountain Range including Mt. Oshio lays and the Katsura River runs on our east. We share three boundaries with Kyoto city - the northern and western boundaries with Nishikyo-ku, and the eastern boundary with Minami-ku and Fushimi-ku. Across the southern boundary is Nagaokakyo city abutting Oyamazaki-cho which is the neighbor of Osaka Prefecture. The city is approximiately 2km from east to west and approximiately 4km from south to north covering the 7.72km2 area. This makes us the third smallest city in Japan after Warabi city and Komae city.

  • Kyoto Et L'ouest Du Pays Sur Ce Circuit En Particulier
    JRPASSES.COM Circuit des marcheurs flâneurs Ce circuit vous emmènera au cœur du Japon que j'aime faire partager. Nous pourrions, certes, rester un mois à sillonner le pays mais le parcours que je vous ai créé représente mon idéal du Japon en train. Vous verrez tour à tour ses jardins, ses céramiques, ses temples et sanctuaires les plus représentatifs mais aussi des lieux magiques hantés par les kamis. Peut-être trouverez-vous étrange de ne pas aller à Tokyo. Rien ne vous empêche de prolonger votre séjour sur place et de céder à la tentation. J'ai préféré me concentrer sur Kyoto et l'ouest du pays sur ce circuit en particulier. Votre accompagnateur Je m'appelle Frédérick. Je suis accompagnateur dans le tourisme d'affaire et écrivain. J'ai découvert le Japon tout d'abord à travers les arts martiaux il y a une trentaine d'années ; puis naturellement je me suis intéressé à sa culture et enfin à sa langue et sa littérature. Dans un voyage, j'aime la marche à pied et les visites mais aussi le contact avec les gens, un partage des cultures souvent fugace mais inoubliable. Je pense que cette façon d'aborder un pays se révèle un bon moyen d'immersion pour le découvrir de l'intérieur et non depuis un aquarium en forme de car qui ne permet qu'un aperçu superficiel. Ce n'est, certes pas en 13 jours que vous aurez vu le Japon sous toutes ses facettes, mais je vous promets un voyage authentique qui vous ouvrira les yeux et le cœur sur une civilisation riches de contrastes.

    History and Culture of Uji Green Tea Tea Drinking Culture The various tea drinking cultures around the world can be roughly classified into the following types: the black tea culture (fermented tea) in the United Kingdom; semi-fermented tea culture, including oolong tea, in China; and the green tea culture in Japan. All of these types of tea originated in China. In accordance with the consumer tastes and preferences of each country, the quality of tea has improved and different drinking methods have been devised, resulting in the formation of diverse tea drinking cultures. In the United Kingdom, people have long enjoyed black tea by adding milk, sugar or flavoring agents, and in various other ways. This has led to a variety of styles within black tea culture, including various tea-serving utensils and settings. Concerning green tea, matcha tea (powdered green tea) was introduced to Japan towards the end of the 12th century. Through the invention of the oishita (covered) cultivation method, matcha tea was refined to have a richer taste and a deep green color. The production and consumption of matcha tea were promoted by the rulers of the time, and the culture of the tea ceremony flourished mainly among the warrior class. Meanwhile, a method of making sencha tea (non-powdered green tea) was developed in Ujitawara in the 18th century. In addition to its refreshing flavor as well as astringency and bitterness, sencha tea features a savory taste imparted by an amino acid. Sencha tea became widely popular, creating a tea drinking culture for the literati and common people alike.

  • The Effect of a New Intercity Expressway Based On
    THE EFFECT OF A NEW INTERCITY EXPRESSWAY BASED ON TRAVEL TIME RELIABILITY USING ETC DATA Hiroki YAMAZAKI†・ Nobuhiro UNO‡・ Fumitaka KURAUCHI§ † Assistant Professor, Academic Center for Computing and Media Studies, Kyoto University (Yoshida-honmachi, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto-shi, 606-8501, Japan, +81-(0)75-753-7436, [email protected]) ‡ Associate Professor, Graduate School of Management, Kyoto University (Kyoto-Daigaku Katsura C-Cluster, Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto-shi, 615-8540, Japan) § Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Gifu University (1-1 Yanagido, Gifu-shi, 501-1193, Japan) This paper describes a method of evaluating the level of service of road networks, based on the average travel time and travel time reliability using electronic toll collection (ETC) data. We focused on the variance in travel time under normal circumstances; thus, traffic accidents were removed from the database, and any effect of individual vehicle preference was excluded. We evaluated the travel time distribution based on the average travel time from ETC data for each 15-min interval. The level of service in an actual intercity highway network was analyzed using the proposed method. This analysis showed that the level of service fluctuated according to the road section analyzed, the month, and the time of day. These findings were confirmed by the shape of the cumulative distribution and indices of average travel time and travel time reliability. Using the evaluation method described here, the analysis also confirmed the change in travel time distribution between major interchanges after the opening of a new intercity highway route. Because a great change in the traffic conditions occurred, we analyzed the relationship between traffic demand and the level of service using detector data.
