開智国際日本語学校(Kaichi International School of Japanese)
Dec. 5, 2022
[English/Japanese] Across the street from the school is Koujiya Hachioji, a store specializing in rice koji. Rice koji is rice malt, which is made by propagating fungi on cooked rice, and is used in a variety of Japanese dishes. It was very cold in Hachioji today, so I ordered a rice koji smoothie hot. The gentle sweetness made my cold body feel warm and refreshed. In Japan, both adults and children often drink amazake, which is made from rice malt, in winter. When I tell this story to foreign students, they are surprised and say, "Children drink sake, too? They are surprised. Amazake is sake, but some amazake is alcohol-free. Please give it a try.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce "Kafe" post "Kifune Shrine in Kyoto". The contrast between the rows of vermilion lanterns and the green is impressive. "Kifune Shrine" is an old shrine rich in nature located in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, Kansai region. It has the benefits of wish fulfillment and matchmaking, and is a popular tourist spot as one of Kyoto's leading power spots. You can also enjoy the superb scenery of the four seasons, such as the autumn leaves of the main shrine and the fantastic lanterns and snowy scenery lining the approach. The annual festival "Kifune Matsuri", which is known as a summer tradition, is an event that is crowded with Shinto rituals, mikoshi pilgrimages, and invitational mochi sprinkling. The powerful Izumo Kagura is also one of the highlights. Except for Shinto rituals, general worshippers can also participate. The fortune draw of Kifune Shrine, which enshrines the god of water, has a unique reputation for its "water fortune telling" in which letters appear when floating on the sacred water. In addition, there are two types of red seals, "Kifune Shrine" and "Okumiya", and the red seal of Kifune Shrine can be written directly by the head of the Goshuin, but the red seal of the Okumiya is only written down. ◆Kifune Shrine◆ 【Access】 ・Car About 40 minutes north of Kyoto Station about 18 km About 50 minutes north of Meishin Expressway Higashi IC about 20km 【Access from Kyoto Station】 ・ Train transfer + bus Time required: about 1 hour Transfer → Kyoto Station to Tofukuji Station on the JR Nara Line→ transfer to Demachiyanagi Station on the Keihan Main Line and Ohto Line→ get off at Kifuneguchi Station on the Eizan Railway Kurama Line, and walk from Kyoto Bus "Kifuneguchi Ekimae" bus stop → "Kifune" bus stop. ・Subway + Bus Time required: about 1 hour Transfer to Kokusaikaikan Station on the Karasuma Line → Kyoto Station→ get off at Kifuneguchi bus stop on the Kyoto Bus bound for Kifuneguchi and Kurama, and walk from Kifuneguchi Ekimae Bus Stop → Kifune Bus Stop.

[English/Japanese] Illumination at Hachioji Station. There were people stopping to take pictures and meeting others. The school is located at Nishi-Hachioji Station next to Hachioji Station, but students often use Hachioji Station for their part-time jobs. It is the illumination of Hachioji Station.
