Theme day: sister city

Kyoto, Japan

Of Kyoto's sister cities: Boston in U.S., Prague in Czech, Zagreb in Croatia, Kiev in Ukraine, Cologne in Germany, Xi'an in China and other cities, I choose Florence in Italy. This box contains a soup and is sold at the oldest pharmacy in the world, Officina profumo farmaceutica di S. M. Novella in Firence, but I bought it at its branch at Kyoto. The froth is silky and the scent is absolutely elegant and I love it.

The theme day: metal, copper container for tea leaves

The theme day: metal, copper container for tea leaves, Kyoto

This is a new copper green tea container and I bought it in Kyoto. The texture feels very smooth and uber-nice. Time passing will make the surface modest, with austere elegance.

The master of cleaning, at Shisendo Temple, at Kyoto

The master of cleaning, at Shisendo Temple, at Kyoto
This is a garden of a temple, with the wave pattern on the sand surface. The sense of the excessive clean comes from Shintoism, although this is not in shrine but temple.

The theme day: a sign "No...": No stepping forward

The theme day: a sign
It is very very long time no writing and updating because I was busy a little bit....

As the same picture as the post in Nov., 2006, , this is put in a garden and shows "keep away". Just putting on the tiny stone on a stepping stone is the modest way to urge people to do so.

June 2008 Theme Day: My corner local shop, in Kyoto, Japan

At the entrance of traditional shops and restaurants in Kyoto is such cloth, called noren, hung. Most of traditional wooden buildings have sliding doors at the entrance and the cloth goes very well with the door. The clothes have a purpose and if the cloth is hung, it shows that a shop is open.
