However, the dragon god living in the Tadami River came to steal the jewel back.

The Takechi Maru – A Concrete Ship Built During WW2 This video, titled "Takechi Maru - The Guardian of the Sea in Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima: A Concrete Ship From the End of WW2" (広島県呉市安浦町、海の守り神:終戦間際のコンクリート船、武智丸), was uploaded by "K Nishiyama" (K西山). It introduces the "Takechi Maru," a concrete ship in Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima in Japan's Chugoku Region. The Takechi Maru is a wartime cargo ship that was built by the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. A total of five of these ships were planned to be built during the same period, but two of them remain in the fishing port of Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima. The Takechi Maru is now used as a breakwater to protect the residents of the seaside area. Enjoy the powerful, historical atmosphere of the ship in the video! Feel the Grandeur and History of the Takechi Maru! Photo：The concrete ship, Takechi Maru The Takechi Maru measures 64.5 meters long and weighs 800 tons, making it a large cargo ship at 980 tons deadweight. It can be seen from 0:10 in the video. The Takechi Maru now serves as a breakwater off Mitsuguchi in the town of Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima. It is said that a civil engineering company owner in Osaka named "Shojiro Takechi" once had a strong desire to build a ship. After various building plans were devised, two docks were constructed in Takasago, Hyogo. The two docks were named "Takechi Shipyard" after Shojiro Takechi. Then, in 1944, the "Takechi Maru No. 1" was completed. Due to its structure, it was heavier than steel ships, and its disadvantage was that it could not carry as much cargo. However, it was as strong and sturdy as the steel ships and carried military supplies as a cargo ship. The "Takechi Maru No. 2," which was completed later, was deployed to Yokosuka as a cargo ship for military supplies, and served as a transport ship during the devastation of WW2. The Takechi Maru Following WW2 Photo：The concrete ship, Takechi Maru After World War II, the Takechi Maru No. 1 was sold to the Port of Kure and the Takechi Maru No. 2 was sold to the Port of Osaka. At the time, there was no breakwater at the Yasuura Fishing Port in Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima, and so the plan was to repurpose the Takechi Maru No. 1 and No. 2 as breakwaters. And, as can be seen in the video, they have been doing just that. At the time, the price of steel bars and other metals skyrocketed, and the Takechi Maru No. 1 and No. 2 were stripped of most of their steel parts. As a result, only the concrete hulls of the ships remained, and they became the "concrete ships" that we know today. The Takechi Maru as a Tourist Attraction! Experience the History of Japan! Photo：A person fishing After such history, the Takechi Maru still exists at the Yasuura Fishing Port in Yasuura, Kure, Hiroshima. Many tourists visit the area to see the powerful and majestic Takechi Maru. The Takechi Maru can be seen just off Mitsuguchi Pier (三津口桟橋) in Kure, Hiroshima. It is easily accessible, making it an excellent place to travel for sightseeing. Nearby, there are also breweries that make delicious Hiroshima sake, so you can enjoy locally brewed flavors as well. Furthermore, you can enjoy sightseeing at Kaizu Shrine (海津神社) and Nezaki Shrine (子崎神社). The area between the Takechi Maru and Mitsukuchi Pier is also known as one of the best fishing spots for horse mackerel and sardines. In Ondo, also in Kure, Hiroshima, there is another concrete ship, but this one is deteriorating rapidly and visitors should be careful when visiting it. The town of Yasuura in Kure, Hiroshima, where the Takechi Maru is located, is a place where you can experience history firsthand. Check out Kure Port, Maizuru Port, and Iwo Jima to learn about the history of Japan. Summary of the Takechi Maru, a Ship Reborn as Breakwater In the town of Yasuura in Kure, Hiroshima, the Takechi Maru is a beloved guardian of the sea. Having experienced the devastation of war in WW2, it now serves to protect the people of Kure, Hiroshima as a breakwater. Its power and grandeur will give you a sense of the technology and craftsmanship of the time. Be sure to check out this 2-minute video to get a sense of the history of the Takechi Maru. 【TripAdvisor】Takechi Maru https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g1022430-d10839037-Reviews-Concrete_Ship_Takechimaru-Kure_Hiroshima_Prefecture_Chugoku.html

Video introduction of Nakano Broadway in Nakano Ward, Tokyo This video, titled "【Nakano, Tokyo】Walking around Nakano Broadway（【中野 東京】中野ブロードウェイを散策）," allows you to experience the famous out-of-the-way tourist destination in Nakano Ward (中野区, Nakanoku), Tokyo: Nakano Broadway.

It has become particularly famous for its subculture, which attracts huge numbers of foreign tourists visiting Tokyo. It is known as "the mecca of subculture", "post-Akihabara" and so on. In this article, we will introduce Nakano Broadway in detail alongside the video. What Is Nakano Broadway? And What Does Is Look Like? Source :YouTube screenshot Nakano Broadway is a commercial complex constructed at the end of Nakano Sun Mall Shopping Center (中野サンモール商店街, Nakano Sun Mall Shotengai) in 1966, which combined a shopping center with housing. The lower floors are dedicated to the use as a shopping center and the floors above are for housing. You can actually live in Nakano Broadway as some rooms are up for rent, although it is a bit pricey due to its location.

Take a step in and a chaotic world in a different dimension greets you! Around 300 shops squeeze inside the building. They specialize in manga, anime, figures, toys, and recently, 3D printers and Bitcoin. Curious as to why Nakano Broadway came to be known as the epicenter of pop culture and subculture? A company called "Mandarake," which played a major role in bringing Nakano Broadway to the world stage, was a particularly important stakeholder in regards to this. What Is Mandarake? Photo：Nakano Broadway, Mandarake Mandarake, which inextricably shares history with Nakano Broadway, started as a secondhand bookshop. At first, its specialization didn’t match the surrounding environment, but it became exceedingly popular as many Otaku, more interested in subculture than in pop culture, visited the place partly due to its location. Soon, the company Mandarake was founded. It gained a lot of fans by contributing to the permeation of subculture through launching many new shops inside Nakano Broadway dedicated to manga and anime for popular demand, and figures, diorama, video games and gaming arcades for hard core fans. As a result, it has grown to be known today as "the mecca of subculture," and a stunning number of foreign customers visit every day, thanks to the global popularity of otaku culture. Walking around and visiting the many different shops is certainly exciting, but you can even sell your own goods using the "rental showcase" system. Mandarake can be seen throughout the video, so if you’re interested, be sure to check it out.

This video, titled "Matsumoto Castle - 松本城 - 4K Ultra HD," was released by "TokyoStreetView - Japan The Beautiful." Unlike other castles in Japan, Matsumoto Castle is not built on a hill or mountain plateau, but on flat ground. Originally built as Fukashi Castle in the Warring States period (1467-1568) by the Shinano Protectorate of Ogasawara City, Matsumoto Castle once fell during the invasion of Takeda City in Kai Province. However, it was later rebuilt and is now one of the most beloved castles in Japan. The castle tower was built by Naomasa Matsudaira, the feudal lord at that time, and it is the only existing national treasure with a moon viewing tower in Japan. Many events are held in the nearby Matsumoto Castle Park throughout the year, so we recommend visiting during these events.

Video introduction of "Basketball Street" in Shibuya Center Street, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo This article focuses on one of the landmarks of Shibuya, "Basketball street"（渋谷の象徴的な通り”バスケットボールストリート”に着目。渋谷駅前交差点からセンター街を散策）. The 4K video navigates us through the famous pedestrian walkway starting from Shibuya Scramble. Shibuya features many shopping attractions such as Inokashira street, Bunkamura street or the Dougenzaka area which is always crammed with people, from shoppers, to teenagers, to tourists. Among them, Basketball street is the central hub for the teenage fashion culture known as "Shibuya Kei"(loosely translated as Shibuya style). The Features of Shibuya Center-Gai Basketball Street Photo：Shibuya Center Street Main Street Shibuya Center-gai Basketball street is a shopping street located in Udagawacho, Shibuya. Walking across the Shibuya Scramble after passing through the hustle and bustle of Shibuya Station Hachiko Exit, you are greeted by the entrance archway of Center-gai Basketball street. In 2011, the main street of Shibuya Center-gai was renamed to Basketball street as part of public safety improvement efforts. The main reason of the name change was to refresh the stereotype associated with the area where juvenile delinquents (known as "Teamer" or "Ganguro") used to roam around in groups. The new name reflects the local aim to develop an ideal, healthy hangout for the youth. The name, however, hasn't really taken off even among Japanese people yet. How to Enjoy Shibuya Center-Gai Basketball Street Photo：109 Shibuya Center-gai Basketball street is probably the busiest street in Japan. Many fashion department stores are lined up in the neighborhood, such as 109, Seibu Department Store, Parco and Tokyu hands. The street consists of a strange mix of shops like fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's, eateries including the ones specialized in ramen or bubble tea, big record stores like TSUTAYA, and entertainment spots catering to teenagers like arcades or photo booth machine stores (known as purikura machines). The Shibuya Scramble appears at the beginning of the video, and from 0:47, viewers are taken to Shibuya Center-gai Basketball street that runs between TSUTAYA and Taiseido Bookstore. Although 9 years has passed since the street was renamed, the entrance archway sign in the video still displays the old name, "Shibuya Center-gai". The video takes for a ride through the lively street. Events at Shibuya Center-Gai Basketball Street!

Public bathhouses have long been popular with the public, and from the Edo period (1603 to 1863) onward, they flourished as a social gathering place for the common people.

A Look at Japan's Sumo Wrestling "Sumo Match - Tokyo - 相撲" is a video produced by TokyoStreetView – Japan The Beautiful, featuring Japan’s national sport! Sumo is a traditional martial art loved by the masses since old times in Japan. As the matches are held internationally, the sport has many overseas fans and is capturing the world’s attention. Matches between top wrestlers in the sumo rankings such as Yokozuna or Ozeki, are very spectacular and spectators can fully enjoy the thrilling matches. The video features footage of a match between sekitori (a sumo ranking) during the New Year’s tournament held in January 2017. Check out Japan’s spectacular sport - sumo wrestling! About Sumo – Japan’s National Sport Photo：Sumo Wrestling The first written record of sumo in Japan is said to be found in a Shinto document called Kojiki. Sumo matches used to be held as rituals and festivals dedicated to the deities and was mostly loved by nobles. After gaining popularity among the masses during the Edo period (1603 – 1868 AD), sumo has been enjoyed as a form of entertainment and sport in Japan. Today, matches are held both nationwide and internationally and many Japanese and foreigners enjoy it. The manners and conventions rooted in the rituals are passed down and given special importance even in modern sumo wrestling. The Excitement of Sumo Source :YouTube screenshot As the national sport of Japan, sumo wrestling starts from matches between low-ranking wrestlers, and matches between makuuchi (senior-grade wrestlers) are held in the evening. Honbasho refers to the official tournaments that decide the rankings and rewards of the wrestlers and six tournaments are organized throughout the year: the first tournament in January (Tokyo), the spring tournament in March (Osaka), the summer tournament in May (Tokyo), the Nagoya tournament in July, the autumn tournament in September (Tokyo), and finally, the Kyushu tournament in November (Fukuoka). Many Japanese people have probably watched the official tournaments aired on NHK (the national broadcaster in Japan). Some may have a stiff image of the national sport, but that's not true at all. Spectators can enter the venue at any time and watch the match in a relaxed manner while eating and drinking. Matches between senior-grade wrestlers are a must-watch and you'll surely get excited watching the spectacular matches between well-built wrestlers. Spectators get excited during matches, especially when a maegashira (the lowest grade of the highest ranking sumo class) wins against a yokozuna (the highest ranking sumo class) champion, as well as in deciding matches. Tickets and information of those exciting sumo wrestling matches are available on the official website of Nihon Sumo Kyokai. The Flow of a Sumo Match Source :YouTube screenshot As you can see at 0:22 in the video, wrestlers step into the ring with their colorful ornamental aprons before a match. As businesses can offer rewards to support wrestlers, the “reward banners” with the names of those businesses go around the ring as you can see at 3:14 in the video. With the company names printed on the program of the matches and publicly announced, those businesses play a similar role to sponsors in other sports. Before a match, a ritual called "chirichouzu" is held. You can see this at 3:08 and 7:52 in the video. This is a declaration "to fight fair and square without any weapons." Source :YouTube screenshot Next, the wrestler creates distance from the opponent, bends forward, and places his hands on the ground. This is called "shikiri" (仕切り). Then, with the signal of the referee, the wrestlers push each other. This is called "tachiai" (立合い). This series of events can be seen in the video. There are different means of attacking, such as thrusts, slapping, and body strikes. Kimarite (決まり手, winning move) refers to the move that the opponent is defeated by. Punching and grabbing the opponent's hair are prohibited moves in sumo. Summary of Japan’s National Sport Photo：Sumo "Sumo Match - Tokyo - 相撲," produced by TokyoStreetView – Japan The Beautiful, features conventions before matches and match footage of Japan’s national sport. From the cultural aspect of sumo that originates from Japanese Shinto to the spectacular matches, the video shows the sport at its best. Sumo is a fascinating martial art that a wide range of people including those who are interested in Japanese culture and martial arts lovers can enjoy! 【Official Website】Nihon Sumo Kyokai Official Website http://www.sumo.or.jp/En/

The History of Zuiryuji Temple Photo：Sanmon gate at Zuiryuji Temple, Toyama Prefecture Zuiryuji Temple was built during the Kamakura period (1185 AD - 1333 AD) by the second generation Kaga domain feudal lord Toshinaga Maeda (前田利長). The temple was later named "Zuiryuin" (瑞龍院) by the third generation Kaga domain feudal lord Toshitsune Maeda (前田利常). The three main buildings of the temple: Sanmon Gate (山門), Butsuden (仏殿) and Hodo (法堂)), are built in a straight line (each one behind the other) in a beautiful symmetrical design. The current Sanmon Gate, seen at 0:28 in the video, was once destroyed by fire and rebuilt in the Edo period (1603 AD - 1868 AD). Major repairs were made during the Showa (昭和) and Heisei periods (平成) and Zuiryuji temple was officially registered as a national treasure in 1997.
