Koshien High School Baseball
[An article of Tokyo-explorer] August in Osaka, for many, means just one thing – "Koshien High School Baseball" – a huge baseball tournament that somehow makes the head of mid-summer all the more bearable.Comparable in some forms to the English FA Cup in that every high school in the nation, if they happen to have a baseball team, has a chance to progress to the final, the annual National High School Baseball Tournament to give it its proper title is held at the home of the Hanshi ..

Christmas Tree Illuminated on Fukuoka Tower
Nearby is the Yahoo Dome, which is a huge baseball stadium, Marizon, which is a wedding ceremony institution, Cruise shaped JAL hotel, and sea.Out of seaside towers in Japan, Fukuoka Tower is the highest, made of half mirrors(that's why it spurkles during daytime, too), and is 234 m high (Observation floor is 123 m high).

The Street of Kyoto (1) ; Shijo-dori
Of course old Kyoto is beautiful, but if you would like to experience and understand about modern Kyoto, you should walk in the center of Kyoto city.Shijo-KarasumaThis time I walked along the Shijo-dori (dori means street) in which Kyoto people who are men and women of all ages go to-and-fro for strolling, shopping and dining.

Mo' Momiji, Mo' Momiji, Mo' MOMIJI!
Today I treated myself with a quick rip over to 2 of the finest locations in this town we call Kyoto and, yes indeed folks, the fall colors (Koya) were busting out everywhere. Both spots are an absolute down-to-the-soles-of-your-feet pleasure and both are easy on the pocketbook. As in gratis, no charge, like 100% FREE, you know? All you have to do is walk in and enjoy the timeless nature of the Ancient Capitol and for the most part you'll have plenty of elbow room at either place wi ..

A Slow Walking tour of the Neighborhood For all you Kyoto lovers out there (and who among us doesn't love the Ancient Capitol?) here is a brief look at my lovely new surroundings, located on the borderline between Shogoin and Okazaki. I had a day off the slave recently and decided to take an ever so leisurely stroll around to see what I could see, see? Come along. So it's out the door and a 5 minute walk to the Konbini (convenience store) to load up on nikuman then straight to the popu ..

Hanshin Tigers at the Koshien Baseball Stadium
Believe it or not, we were able to enter the Stadium --without need for any tickets! Why? There were high school teams playing! It was huge!! What was interesting was that the outside of the building was covered with vines!! I loved the vine-y look.I thought that we would only be able to stroll on the outside, but not only were we only able to enter the stadium, but we were even allowed entry into the museum (no entrance fees charged but it is closed right now) of the Hanshin Tigers which has th ..
