Wow, it's awesome watching these cups come together. I love watching videos of craftsmanship like this. Don't see a lot of this anywhere else these days. Japan always has the coolest traditional crafts too. I really enjoy sake so I should consider getting one of these probably. I'd also like to get some Edo Kiriko as well, but they're a bit more pricey and I'm really pick about which one I want lol. I love seeing all the specialized tools used in each craft too. Some you can just tell that there's no other possible use and you can get an idea of just how much knowledge has been handed down to reach this point. Really awesome stuff

Yoshinosugi goupon made by traditional craftsmen of Okeya Kondo in Kyoto, Japan, is a work of art! A video introduction to crafts from Yoshino-cho, Nara Prefecture, that make sake taste great!

What a great photo of Heian Jingu. I haven't had the chance to visit this one in Kyoto unfortunately, too entranced by Kiyomizudera I suppose. I really need to check out Heian Jingu though, I always enjoy seeing photos of it. I really love how open the courtyard is and seeing the large torii gate is always cool as well. I'd really like to take a stroll through the garden here as well, it's supposed to be pretty incredible from what I've heard. Really tranquil no doubt. I know there are some ponds or at least one pond, I'm not sure if it has any koi in it though, Although I'm sure there are as most gardens seems to have them, plus they're really beautiful so it'd be a shame not to have them. I knew there was a festival here that's supposed to be really awesome but couldn't remember the name so I had to look it up. The Reisai Festival - Supposed to be really great for seeing Geiko and Maiko and hearing some traditional instruments like the shamisen
