What is Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens? This video, titled "Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens – Area Information|Video Website|Machi Log," introduces Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens, a wooden, European-style building that was built more than 120 years ago in 1896 (year 29 of Meiji), for the founder of Mitsubishi, Hisaya Iwasaki. Due to the dissolution of the zaibatsu, as directed by SCAP after the war, the Iwasaki Family residence was requisitioned and they lost much of the buildings and garden; however it was later returned to the Japanese government. Presently, there are 3 buildings left, the Western-style building (main building), the billiard room, and the Japanese-style building. They are designated as important cultural properties. The building itself was designed by the Englishman, Josiah Conder. An authentic, wooden, Western-style 2 story building with a basement was very rare at the time and it is said to have eventually had a large influence on modern day Japanese housing. All of the Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens is open to the public as a metropolitan garden, and there is also a café there so it's teeming with people during lunchtime or seasons in which you can see the cherry blossoms and autumn foliage. The elegant Western-style building is also used for filming many TV dramas and movies thanks to its beautiful appearance. The Highlights of Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens Source :YouTube screenshot There are so many points of interest at Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens that we couldn't possibly cover them in one go. The architecture of the semi-Western mansion representing the wealthy of the Meiji era (1868-1912) immediately after the opening of the country, is considered to be a very modern style even by present-day standards. When you enter the house, the decorations, including vines wrapping around the wooden columns, catch one's eyes immediately. This particular design is called Jacobian-style architecture and was very popular in 19th century England. This can be seen from 1:10 in the video. The wooden billiards room is designed in the style of a Swiss mountain hut, which was rare in Japan at that time. The Japanese-style building, which was used by Hisaya Iwasaki, was decorated with screen paintings by the great Japanese artist, Masakuni Hashimoto. The billiards room can be seen at 1:58, and the Japanese-style building can be seen at 2:33 in the video. Finally, the greatest highlight of Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens is the rose garden that colors the entire lawn. In autumn, the Autumn Festival is held, and the scent of its roses fill the entire Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens, captivating the many visitors. On the other hand, the serene Japanese-style garden has the look of a traditional Japanese garden, with garden stones, lanterns, and artificial miniature hills. At tea ceremonies, you can enjoy tea and Japanese confectioneries while enjoying the scenic nature of the seasons at the beautiful Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens. The Tumultuous History of Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens Source :YouTube screenshot Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens is located at Ikenohata 1-chome, Taito-ku, Tokyo, where the residence of the Takada Domain was located in the Edo period (1603-1868). After the Meiji Restoration, due to the abolition of feudal domains and the establishment of prefectures in 1871, the Takada Domain was dissolved and it became the property of the former Maizuru clan governor, Sukeshige Makino. However, it was bought by Yataro Iwasaki who was part of a zaibatsu, and the 3rd generation head of that family, Hisaya Iwasaki, built Kyu-Iwasaki-tei. After the war, the zaibatsu were dissolved by SCAP, the building became government controlled, and was managed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. It is indeed a monument that has survived a tumultuous history to the present day. Summary of Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens Photo:Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens, the foundation of Japan's modern architecture, is currently undergoing restoration work on the lawn and is partly off-limits as of April 2020. Tours are still taking place; however, so why not visit Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens and get a taste of Japanese history?

Introducing the Outstanding Craftsmanship of Tokyo Some-Komon! The Delicate Designs of These Kimono and Obi Are Carefully Handmade by Artisans
Traditional Crafts- 423 plays
- YouTube
An Introductory Video on "Tokyo Some-Komon," a Traditional Japanese Craft This video, titled "手技TEWAZA「東京染小紋」tokyo some komon dyeing/伝統工芸 青山スクエア Japan traditional crafts Aoyama Square," was released by "Traditional Crafts Aoyama Square." Tokyo Some-Komon, the traditional Japanese craft introduced this time, may be more familiar to those living in Tokyo or the Tokyo metropolitan area. A Closer Look at Tokyo Some-Komon, a Traditional Japanese Craft Source :YouTube screenshot Tokyo Some-Komon is a traditional craft that encompasses a wide range of items, from luxury garments, such as kimono and obi, to everyday items such as furoshiki and folding fans. Clothes and kimonos made via the outstanding artisanship and carefully hand-dyed not only on pure silk and cotton but also on handmade Japanese paper, have been highly valued as works of art; and many Tokyo Some-Komon craftsmen have been awarded the Order of Culture. The raw materials used for dyeing include astringent persimmon juice, which has antibacterial and deodorizing properties. Since each piece is handmade by craftsmen, it cannot be mass-produced. There are some workshops where you can experience Tokyo Some-Komon, so consider giving these a visit. "Komon" is a small pattern drawn on the paper stencil which can be seen from 0:26 in the video. The history of Tokyo Some-Komon dates back to the Muromachi Period (1336-1573) and spread during the Edo Period (1603-1868). Dyeing craftsmen gathered in Edo (today Tokyo) to compete with their techniques, and because the crafts popularity blossomed in Edo, it was nicknamed Edo Komon. The Making of Tokyo Some-Komon Source :YouTube screenshot [Step 1: Making the Paper Pattern] The stencil is made of handmade Japanese paper laminated with astringent persimmon. Ise-katagami (made in Suzuka, Mie) is used for Tokyo Some-Komon. On the paper pattern, starch is applied to the parts that will not be colored when dyeing. When the starch is washed off after dyeing is completed, the parts covered with starch will remain white, creating beautiful patterns. After applying the starch, the pattern is dried. [Step 2: Colored Paste] (Video: 1:03 ~) Colored starch is formulated by mixing salt with glutinous rice and rice bran and steaming it, and then kneading the color with dye. Since the color and finished color of the dye are different, the formulation requires a high level of craftsmanship. [Step 3: Stenciling] (Video: 2:01 ~) Colored paste is applied to the fabric with a spatula. This work is sometimes called "shigoki." [Step 4: Steaming] Before the colored paste dries, it is folded into layers and placed in a steaming box to steam it. From here it is steamed for 15 to 30 minutes while the temperature is gradually raised so that the base color will settle into the material easily. [Step 5: Washing] (Video: 3:04 ~) The steamed fabric is then transferred to a water tank and rinsed with groundwater and sawdust to soften the paste. In the past, many dye artisans in Japan were located along rivers because it was convenient for washing fabrics. Source :YouTube screenshot [Step 6: Finishing] (Video: 3:16 ~) Having been washed with water, the fabric is placed in a spin drier, dried, then finely colored, thus completing the piece. Summary of Tokyo Some-Komon Source :YouTube screenshot It's no exaggeration to say that the main characteristic of Tokyo Some-Komon is the density of the Komon designs. Seen from a distance, it looks like a solid color, but as you get closer, you can see the intricate patterns, which has led to pieces made with Tokyo Some-Komon being referred to as works of art. From the Muromachi Period to the Edo Period, Japan had a samurai society, and its culture was simple. For this reason, it is believed that at first glance, a plain small pattern was preferred rather than the ostentatious patterns found in yukata and Kyoyuzen (silk fabrics made in Kyoto). Looking closer, the fashionable and luxurious dyeing techniques would have been loved by the people of Edo. It can be seen in literature and cultural heritages of the Edo period that the culture of Tokyo Some-Komon had become prevalent in formal samurai wear. Also, Tokyo Some-Komon expanded from samurai to the culture of the common people from the middle of the Edo period (around 1700 to 1800). Daily necessities brimming with a playful spirit, such as Tokyo Some-Komon kimono and furoshiki, not only for men but also for women's semi-formal wear, have become very popular. Tokyo Some-Komon was designated as a National Traditional Craft by the former Minister of Economy, Trade, and Industry in 1974. Today, the craftsmanship is used and loved in a wide range of fields such as scarves, lampshades, and traditional handicrafts using handmade Japanese paper.

Experience the Large Weeping Cherry Blossoms at Joenji Temple in All Their Beauty in the Metropolis of Shinjuku, Tokyo! Enjoy Beautiful Cherry Blossoms Lit up to "Sakura Sakura," a Japanese Folk Song!

Joenji Temple, a Hidden Gem for Cherry Blossom Viewing in the Skyscraper District of Nishi-Shinjuku This video, titled "[Sakura] Joenji Temple - Tokyo - 常圓寺 - 4K Ultra HD," was uploaded by "TokyoStreetView - Japan The Beautiful." There are places to view cherry blossoms in Tokyo, and Joenji Temple, located in Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku, Tokyo, in Japan's Kanto region, is one of them. The area around the cherry blossoms is lined with high-rise office buildings and luxury hotels, and the weeping cherry blossom standing majestically in the midst of the metropolitan skyscrapers is a hidden gem for viewing cherry blossoms. From 0:08 in the video, the cherry blossoms can be seen lit up at night, a sight that will make you forget that you're in the middle of a city. Surprisingly, there are many temples and shrines in the Shinjuku area, and once you begin to look for them, you'll find many power spots where the hustle and bustle of the city seems to disappear. The temple shown in the video, Joenji Temple, is located along the busy Ome-Kaido (Ome Highway), but once you set foot on the approach, you'll feel as though you've stepped into another world. Joenji Temple – The History of Shinjuku’s Hidden Gem for Cherry Blossom Viewing Photo:Weeping cherry blossoms at Joenji Temple, Shinjuku, Tokyo Joenji Temple is located just six minutes from Shinjuku Station on foot, and is said to have a history dating back 600 years. The temple was moved from Hatagaya, Shibuya, to its current location in Nishi-Shinjuku on September 13, 1585. The precincts of the temple are approximately 1,100 tsubo (~3,600 Sq. m) in size, and include the main hall, the soshi-do (founder's hall), a large study, Naka-mon Gate, the bell tower hall, the storehouse, and other halls. The large weeping cherry tree that appears in the video is planted near the temple gate, and when it is in full bloom, the cherry blossoms can be seen from the Ome Kaido that runs beside Joenji Temple, attracting many visitors every year. The large weeping cherry tree has been called one of the "Three Trees of Edo" and "One Hundred Cherry Trees of Edo" since the Edo period (1603-1868). Unfortunately, during WW2, most of the temple was destroyed by air raids, but in 1952, thanks to the contributions of the temple's parishioners, the temple was rebuilt after the war. Since Joenji is a Nichiren-Shu temple and its scripture is the Lotus Sutra, the Shoin (temple office) also serves as the Joenji Institute of Nichiren Buddhism, and there are gravesites of historical figures such as Tsutsui Masanori (a historical site designated by Shinjuku Ward) on the temple grounds. The current head priest is Genichi Oikawa, who inherited the Triratna from the 40th head priest of Joenji. Sakura, Sakura – A Traditional Japanese Folk Song Photo:Someiyoshino cherry blossoms The background music used in the video is the folk song "Sakura, Sakura," which any Japanese person knows. (It is commonly known in Japanese as simply "Sakura"). There is a theory that this song was originally written as a Koto exercise, but the author is unknown. It was not until the Meiji Period (1868-1912 A.D.) that the song was popularized as "Sakura Sakura," and in the Showa Period (1926-1989) it was selected as a song for elementary school music lessons. In addition, there are two versions of the lyrics, one written in the Meiji Period (the lyrics used in this video) and the other revised in 1941. The 1941 version seems to be the one adopted in most school education today. The lyrics can be translated as follows: Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, In fields, mountains and villages As far as the eye can see. Is it mist, or clouds? Fragrant in the rising sun. Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, Flowers in full bloom. Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, Across the spring sky, As far as the eye can see. Is it mist, or clouds? Fragrant in the air. Come now, come now, Let's go and see them. (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sakura_Sakura#Lyrics) The best time to see and see the weeping cherry blossoms at Joenji Temple in Shinjuku The highlight of Joenji's cherry blossoms is "Daishidare-zakura," which usually reaches its peak from late March, but in 2023, it bloomed earlier than usual on March 19th for 4 minutes and was in full bloom on March 19th.

If you're interested in diving but aren't very familiar with it, be sure to check out the diving you can do in Ito, Chiba in the video! Are There Sharks in Tokyo and Chiba? There are a variety of different sharks in both Tokyo and Chiba. Some sharks you can find in Tokyo are houndsharks, sawsharks, angelsharks, etc. Additionally, in Chiba there are shortfin mako sharks, salmon sharks, thresher sharks, and many more varieties. Going on the shark diving tour in Ito is the best way to see sharks near Tokyo, but there are also other diving spots in Japan where you can go shark diving. Ito, Chiba Prefecture – A Popular Diving Spot Close to Tokyo! Ito, Chiba, in the Kanto region, is known as the southernmost diving spot in Japan's Kanto region. Divers from all over the world gather here to enjoy the diving spots of the Boso Peninsula. Ito is also known as a shark diving spot. You can see schools of sharks from up close. In addition to sharks, Ito is also a fascinating diving spot where you can see sunfish, nudibranchs, and a variety of other marine creatures up close. The Various Marine Life You Can See in Ito, Chiba Photo:Banded houndsharks and red stingrays One of the greatest attractions of diving is to be able to see sea creatures swimming in the sea up close. As mentioned above, in Ito and the Tateyama area, you can see beautiful coral reefs as well as various types of creatures up close. You can enjoy the marine world of Ito through an unforgettable diving experience. [Video] 4:55 - Coral Reef [Marine Life in Ito, Chiba] Here are some of the sea creatures you may encounter in the sea of Ito. ・Short barbeled velvetchins ・Longtooth groupers ・Banded houndsharks ・Goniobranchus tinctorius (sea slug) ・Red stingrays ・Dorid nudibranchs (sea slug) ・Striped boarfish ・Asian sheepshead wrasse ・Spotted white sea slugs ・Sun fish Tateyama Shark Scramble – The Main Attraction in Ito, Chiba! Photo:A group of banded hounsharks Tateyama Shark Scramble is attracting a lot of attention in the Tateyama/Ito area. Tateyama Shark Scramble refers to the phenomenon when more than 100 sharks can be seen swimming in a whirlpool in the ocean. It's also known as the "Shark Tornado." Ito was originally called Shark City because of the large number of sharks that inhabit the area. However, serious damage was caused by the large number of sharks. The problem was that the sharks ate the fish caught by fisherman, who were left with insufficient catches. The local fishing cooperative wanted to somehow solve this problem, so they consulted a man named Mr. Shiota, who provides diving services in Ito. As a result, a shark guiding operation was launched in 2009 which successfully kept sharks away from captured fish. As a result of these efforts, Okimaene, a dive point in Ito, Chiba, is now attracting attention from all over the world as a spot where you can swim with sharks. Underwater Bird Watching in Ito, Chiba? Photo:A Japanese cormorant Underwater bird watching might sound like a fever dream, but it's actually something that can be enjoyed in the Tateyama and Ito areas in winter. During the winter you can see Japanese cormorants diving into the ocean. This bird is native to Japan, Korea, and other parts of East Asia. Its body is 84-92 cm in length and it's generally greenish-black with a yellow beak. In addition to the cormorants that originally inhabit the Tateyama/Ito area, some cormorants come to Ito from other areas for the winter. In winter, the water temperature drops and the cormorants cannot catch fish in the shallows, so they dive into the water to catch fish. You can watch them catch fish underwater when diving. Another attraction of diving in Tateyama and Ito is that you can experience underwater bird watching of sea cormorants only in winter. When Is the Best Season to Go Diving in Ito, Chiba? Photo:Diving Diving is possible throughout the year in the Tateyama/Ito area in Chiba, and from late August to early September, the water is warm enough to dive in a wetsuit. Shark schools can be seen throughout the year, but some species and scenes can only be seen at certain times of the year. ・January to March: Underwater bird watching The water is crystal clear and the cormorants can be seen diving up to 20 meters below the surface. ・June-August: You can view the courtship ritual of the longtooth grouper from up close. ・Autumn - Winter: You can see powerful scenes of large fish attacking their prey. How to Get to Ito, Chiba Since it's only a two-hour bus ride from Tokyo, visitors can enjoy diving on a day trip. There are also restaurants in the area, with the seafood restaurant "Gyoko Shokudo Daibo" being particularly popular for its delicious seafood and hamayaki (a style of cooking where the entire fish is skewered and cooked whole over a grill). While the Tateyama/Ito area is popular for diving, it's also a great place for sightseeing and fishing, as there are many fishing ports, restaurants, guest houses, and hotels, some of which have open-air baths with a view of the sea.

Creating Edo Moku-Chokoku Wood Carvings Source :YouTube screenshot Traditionally, zelkova, cherry, and cypress wood are used for the sculptures. To match the intended design, a sketch is carved into the wood using a saw. Following that, using a chisel and a mallet, excess parts of the wood are chipped away. This process is called "arabori" (荒彫り, rough carving). In the video, Kishimoto is in the "fine carving" (中彫り, nakabori) stage. During this stage, the pattern is further developed using a chisel and carving knife. Intricate details are carved with the utmost care to create an exquisite product. There are various types of chisels and carving knives, and the craftsmen skillfully make use of 200-300 types. Other woodworking tools such as planes are used as well. Kishimoto treasures his tools to the utmost, and never neglects their care. This dedication of the craftsmen is what protects the tradition of Edo Moku-Chokoku wood carving. The History of Edo Moku-Chokoku Wood Carving Photo:Nikko Toshogu Shrine in Tochigi Prefecture, a World Heritage Site Edo Moku-Chokoku wood carving dates back to Edo Period Japan (1603-1868), when the Tokugawa Shogunate was at the height of its power. Distinguished craftsmen from all over Japan gathered in Edo as part of their official attendance service (参勤交代). They competed to best one another in terms of skill, and thus, Edo Moku-Chokoku wood carving was born. Yomei Gate at Nikko Toshogu Shrine (日光東照宮の陽明門), a World Heritage Site, is a masterpiece created through the combined efforts of these craftsmen. Eventually, from among the carpenters who carved as part of their service, "domiya horishi" (堂宮彫師) and "shaji chokokushi" (社寺彫刻師) who specialized in the carving of temples and shrines, emerged. In contrast to Buddhist masters who used chisels and small knives to carve Buddhist statues, these craftsmen developed a way of carving that didn't require the use of small knives. This led to the development of Edo Moku-Chokoku wood carving. Their works include architectural carvings, parade floats, and portable shrines. You can also see the works of Edo Moku-Chokoku wood carving at the shrines and temples that are also Cultural Properties of Japan. During the Meiji Period (1868-1912), besides traditional Japanese methods, craftsmen began exploring Western forms of carving and sculpting. There are actually Edo Moku-Chokoku carvings in the interior of the Western-style National Diet Building (国会記事堂). Kishimoto Tadao was involved in this as well, creating a fusion of Japanese and Western culture. In the video, Kishimoto states, "Doing my job and making customers happy. That's what makes it all worth the effort." Summary of Edo Moku-Chokoku Wood Carving Source :YouTube screenshot For many decades, craftsmen such as Kishimoto have been protecting the traditional culture and crafts of Japan.
