This temple’s rock garden was designed to represent the beach where a teenager was killed in single combat. His death is one of the most famous in Japanese history. His killer renounced his samurai life soon after and became a Buddhist monk. This place has some serious education going on…any guesses?
You’ve most likely been to this site, but the building shown here is only sometimes open! Where in Hyogo can you find this painted ceiling?
I’ll give you two hints for this one: it’s not in Tokyo, and it’s not the Goblin Kingdom…as far as I know -I WAS pretty broke and pretty lost when I found this place. Where am I? What’s going on?!
With the season changing, you may have noticed certain things on your commute to school or had them pointed out to you by your Japanese friends or coworkers. What I’m talking about is Nature – which is pretty hard to miss when you live in a country whose culture respects and celebrates nature with all four seasons. Some of you HS ALTs had the pleasure (or pain) of reading a selected few student essays on “Japanese Strong Points.â€
If you run around Japan long enough you’re bound to see or hear about this store, but in this photo it’s the building itself that’s important. What used to be here before American-man-size clothing? (that’s your hint >:D)
Where in Hyogo can you find these scores of immobile soldiers standing at attention?

Thanks for guessing! This one may be kind of tough, apparently.. if no one gets it by the 15th, we’ll put up another hint!
Hi just found this nice website, though not an ALT would like to chance an answer
Kanzaki-cho, Shiso-shi and surrounding areas?
Pin-pon! Shiso-shi it is. How did you know?
