Amidst the sound of the waterwheel, what is being carefully prepared is a cedar incense stick made by Komamura Seimei-do, which has been made for over 100 years since the Meiji Era. What makes it unique is that Komamura Seimei-do is the only company in Ibaraki Prefecture that makes incense sticks using waterwheels. It takes about 40 hours to slowly grind the dried cedar leaves, which are more than 50 years old, to prevent the fragrance of the cedar from escaping. Spring water from Mt. Tsukuba is the only other ingredient combined with the ground cedar leaves. The incense sticks are 100% additive-free and derived from nature in Ibaraki. Many buyers are fascinated by the elegant fragrance that makes you feel as if you're bathing in a forest and come to experience the work or visit the factory. -

Capibara Hot Springs Video Introduction at Saitama Children's Animal Nature Park in Higashimatsuyama City, Saitama Prefecture Capybaras are the largest members of the rodent family, and the video 「みんなで入浴 カピバラ温泉~桶風呂~始めました! 2017.12.5(埼玉県こども動物自然公園 公式/SaitamaChildrensZoo official )capybara onsen』, created by 「埼玉県こども動物自然公園(SaitamaChildrensZoo)」compiles scenes of capybaras enjoying bathing in the hot springs. These scenes of six capybaras considerately entering the hot springs together will warm your heart. The video has also become popular, not only among the Japanese, but also with people from overseas. The Capybaras Introduced in the Video, and Why They’re in the Hot Springs Photo:Capybaras Capybaras are members of the rodent family, and can be found from Panama in South America, all the way to Northeast Argentina. With calm and gentle personalities, capybaras are also popular as pets, and are the largest members of the rodent family, growing up to 106 to 134 centimeters. Males weigh around 77 to 141 pounds, while females weigh around 81 to 145 kilograms. Being proficient swimmers, capybaras tend to escape to the water once they sense approaching danger. They can remain underwater for up to 5 minutes. Although the water is their shelter and haven, due to their warm natural habitat, capybaras are weak to the cold. As a countermeasure to combat cold winters, the “Capybara Hot Springs” was created. The Capybara Hot Springs and the Saitama Children's Zoo Source :YouTube screenshot The Saitama Children's Zoo holds a “Capybara Hot Springs” event every year. The event lasts from November through March, with the location being at the Capybara/Wallaby enclosure. Pools built to look like rock baths are filled with water warmed to a suitable temperature by the sun. Besides the unique springs such as the yuzu bath, a waterfall bath and tub bath are also prepared. The video begins with five capybaras heading towards the hot springs. Of the five, three enter the bath with floating yuzu, one makes for the smaller tub bath, and the last heads for the waterfall bath. Without any jostling or competition for space, the atmosphere is calm and peaceful. From 1:22 in the video, another capybara appears. The scene of this capybara unobtrusively lowering itself backside-first into the yuzu bath is extremely heartwarming. From 1:43 in the video, the capybara in the waterfall bath can be seen wiping its face, and from 1:53 is seen staring peacefully into space, contently settling into the water. The fact that these capybaras act just like little humans will bring a smile to your face. In the Saitama Children's Zoo, you can enjoy viewing the capybaras while warming your feet in the foot baths. Why not stop by and enjoy the relaxing hot springs together with the capybaras? Saitama Children's Zoo Photo:Saitama Children's Zoo Saitama Children's Zoo is a spacious park located in Saitama Prefecture, Higashi-Matsuyama City in Japan's Kanto region (関東地方・埼玉県東松山市, Kanto-chiho・Saitama-ken Higashi-matsuyama-shi). Besides the zoo, the park also boasts the "Children’s Castle" (こどもの城, Kodomo no jo) as well as a large playground (みんなの広場, Minna no hiroba) where children can run around and play. In the playground is the “Adventure Forest Athletics” area (冒険の森アスレチック, Bouken-no-mori asurechikku) as well as the “Shabu-shabu Pond” (じゃぶじゃぶ池, Shabu-shabu ike) with water activites.

Introducing the Pewtersmiths of Japan This video, titled "Japan Handicraft Encyclopedia - Suzukou" (ニッポン手仕事図鑑 × 錫光), was uploaded by "Japan Handicraft Encyclopedia" (ニッポン手仕事図鑑). The art of using tin and lead to produce sake sets, chaki for tea, and various other containers, is a tradition said to have been passed down in Japan for centuries. This time we'll introduce the pewtersmiths of Suzukou, a long-established pewter shop. Suzukou is a workshop run by pewtersmiths Keiichi Nakamura and Takayuki Yoyama. At Suzukou, pewtersmiths manufacture new pewter products while reminiscing over the memory of their ancestors. Experience the beauty of their traditional craft in the video! What Exactly is a Pewtersmith? Source :YouTube screenshot A pewtersmith is a craftsman who uses tin or lead as a material to make tokkuri (sake bottles), flower pots, tea pots, and more. The use of tin and lead gives the product a mild flavor and excellent temperature retention properties, both hot and cold. In addition, tin is resistant to corrosion and does not attract moisture, making it a material that is pleasant to the touch. The products made by pewtersmiths can be used for many years, and this is a profession that is known to produce products that will last a lifetime. Suzukou – The Workshop of a Master Pewtersmith Source :YouTube screenshot It's believed that pewtersmithing was introduced from China about 1,200 to 1,300 years ago, during the Asuka and Nara periods (~592 to 794 AD). Established in 1987, the workshop "Suzukou," located in Kawaguchi, Saitama, was granted the honor of producing a water-dropper as a gift to Fumihito, Prince Akishino, and has been manufacturing products while following in the footsteps of its predecessor, Kozan Nakamura, famous as a master craftsman of our time, and collaborating with many craftsmen from different industries. As a workshop for the next generation, "Suzukou" is a place where tradition is respected and new things are born. Today, it attracts the attention of many people throughout Japan. Keiichi Nakamura - A Pewtersmith Who Insists on Working by Hand Source :YouTube screenshot Keiichi Nakamura was working as a company employee until he inherited his father's pewtersmithing business, which led him to be the craftsman he is today. From the interview, you can feel his strong feelings towards his craft with each word he speaks. He believes that his father's title of "a master craftsman of our time" will serve as a catalyst for the birth of new pewtersmiths in the future and allow them to connect the past and present. In the video, you can see the beautiful pewter products made by hand by Keiichi Nakamura. They're truly works of art. Summary of the Pewtersmiths of Suzukou Source :YouTube screenshot This video introduced an interview with the pewtersmiths of Suzukou. After listening to the interview, we hope you've come to appreciate the beautiful craft and are considering trying it out for yourself! Or at the very least, have come to appreciate traditional Japanese crafts.

If you watch the video, you'll be surprised by the natural beauty of greenery that you couldn't possibly attribute to Tokyo. Akiruno is recommended as a place to relax and get away from the crowds. This article introduces sightseeing spots in Akiruno where you can enjoy nature, history, culture and delicious food. More About Akiruno, Tokyo Source :YouTube screenshot Akiruno, Tokyo is a place rich with nature, about 40 to 50 km west of central Tokyo. With a population of about 80,600 (March, 2020), the climate is colder than in central Tokyo, and the altitude is high, so the area is not so hot in the summer. Akigawa and Itsukaichi merged in 1995 to form Akiruno. The name of the city is derived from the fact that "Akiru Shrine" was located in the former town of Itsukaichi. It is a recommended travel destination for those who are tired of urban life, and has places such as instagram spots and stylish cafes that can be seen in the video. Photo:Yozawa River Speaking of Akiruno's symbol, the clear stream Akigawa, the largest tributary of the Tama River, definitely comes to mind. It flows about 20 km from Hinohara Village to Akiruno, and the surrounding scenery is superb. You can see various landscapes depending on the season, such as fresh greenery in the spring and autumn leaves in the fall. In addition, Ishibune Bridge in the Akigawa Valley is one of the places to see when you go to Akiruno. It is a must-go-to location for checking out the scenery of the river and the autumn leaves that you can see from the top of Ishibune Bridge. The lush nature of Akigawa and the surrounding area can be seen at 0:12 in this video. Akiruno is also famous for Shiroyama. Shiroyama in the Togura district, is a mountain that used to be called "Togura Castle". From the top of Shiroyama, if the weather is nice, you can see the city center, and you will be impressed by the superb view. Since the altitude is not high and it is a gentle mountain trail, it is also a recommended route for beginners climbing and hiking. In addition, "Yamasaki no Oukashi," "Itsukaichi Basin," "Otake Limestone Cave," and "Akirudai Park" are other recommended scenic spots. Information About Recommended Sightseeing Spots in Akiruno, Tokyo Source :YouTube screenshot One of the recommended spots when visiting Akiruno is Seotonoyu. Seotonoyu, located near the Akigawa Valley, is a popular hot spring facility surrounded by greenery. The quality of the hot spring is highly talked about, and its modern interior is also very popular. It is a must-visit place when visiting Akiruno. Other recommended sightseeing spots include Kotoku Temple, Daihigan Temple, Ryushuin Temple, Fukazawa Small Art Museum, Akigawabashi River Park Barbecue Land, and Tokyo Summerland. Also, if you want to enjoy gourmet food in Akiruno, we recommend Kurochaya, where you can eat exquisite Japanese food. Cuisine using river fish such as sweetfish and the famous Tama Yuzu cider are popular. You can also enjoy the atmosphere at an old house. There is also a place in the garden where you can view the bamboo forest. The video also introduces plenty of these local gourmets from 1:37.
