Echizen / Kaga 越前 / 加賀 Tojinbo Cliffs

Echizen Fukui Fukui City is the capital city of Fukui Prefecture. The prefectural buildings are located on the ruins of Fukui Castle where the EchizenMatsudaira family, the lords of Fukui domain, lived during the Edo period (1603-1867). Now, stone walls and moats remain, and cherry trees along the moats draw many cherry blossomviewers in spring.

Eihei-ji Temple is the head temple of the Buddhist Soto sect and has 15,000 branch

temples all over the country. Zen priest Dogen established Eihei-ji in 1244. Large and small buildings stand in the about 330,000 square meter precincts, surrounded by 700-year-old sugi cedar trees. Even now, more than 100 people seek to enter the temple for training every year and those accepted are engaged in hard training. Zen teaches that the Buddhist law is revealed in the everyday manners of a person.

Thus, all activities including eating, cleaning, bathing and face-washing are important in addition to the practice of zazen. Especially, cleaning is a very important training because it

You can personally experience the practice of zazen (reservations are required). In front of the temple, there are ryokan, restaurants which serve shojin vegetable cuisine and Eihei-ji soba, shops selling sesame tofu, and souvenir shops.

Echizen has long been known for Echizen Washi (Japanese paper manufactured in Fukui), which has a 1,500-year history. The Fukui domain issued the first paper money circulated in

The ruins of Fukui Catsle

Echizen Takeningyo no Sato

Echizen Washi no Sato

Takefu Knife Village

local administrations in 1666. It was made with Echizen Washi and it is said to be the oldest paper money still in existence in Japan. Echizen developed as a production area of high quality paper and its production volume of hand-made paper is still the largest in Japan. Although the paper is beautiful and has a soft texture, it is strong and it is said to last for even a 1,000 years. At Echizen Washi no Sato you can try your hand at making Japanese paper.

As Echizen has heavy snow during winter, it is blessed with sturdy bamboos which withstand the tough cold. Using these bamboos, local people have made baskets, flower vases and other everyday household goods. After WWII, they started to make bamboo dolls from left-over bamboos after making the more traditional products. Now the bamboo dolls are a new local specialty. At Echizen Takeningyo no Sato you can visit ateliers and also can experience making bamboo dolls.

Echizen uchi-hamono cutlery is known for its casting technique. Heated steel is strongly and repeatedly beaten many times to forge a knife. (“Uchi” means “beat” or “strike” and “hamono” means “edged tool.”) This technique has been passed down for 700 years. Cuttingedge design knives produced with this technique were selected as a MoMA (Museum of Modern Art, New York) permanent collection.

At Takefu Knife Village you can see old-style blacksmiths working and also experience making a letter opener. Please see an animated video on our website (www.att-japan.net).

Tojinbo Cliffs / Awara Onsen Tojinbo, a series of steep cliffs along a 1-km coastline, is one of the weirdest sites in Japan.

Gigantic rock pillars tower like forbidding walls – or monsters. You will surely freeze when you look down at the sea from a 25-meter high cliff.

The landscape of this type of rock formation is geologically rare and can be seen at only three places in the world. Sightseeing boats are enjoyable and sunset over the edge of the horizon is a must-see. In wintertime, you can see “wave flowers”; on extremely cold and windy days,

Wave flowers

Streets of Ono

Nihon Genki Gekijo (Katayamazu Onsen)

waves breaking on the rocks become like soap bubbles and the bubbles drift in the air on the cold wind currents.

To the south of Tojinbo, there is fishing port Mikuni, a port famous for catching of Echizengani crab, sweet shrimp and buri (yellow tail).

Awara Onsen is nearby. With a history dating back to 1883, it is a relatively new hot spring town, but is known as one of the largest hot spring towns in the Hokuriku area and has been a favored spot of literary figures.

Ono / Katsuyama Ono is called “Little Kyoto” in Hokuriku because of not only its atmosphere but also its neat grid streets like Kyoto, which were made by Kanamori Nagachika, the first lord of EchizenOno Castle. Reconstructed Echizen-Ono Castle, historic sites and buildings, retro shops and beautiful springs are worth seeing and you can tour on foot.

More than 80 percent of dinosaur fossils in Japan have been found around Katsuyama, and Japan’s first dinosaur museum opened there in 2000. It displays replicas and skeletal preparations of dinosaurs. You can enjoy “discovering” fossils at a square. Rocks of the sites where dinosaur fossils were actually found are placed there.

Yamashiro Onsen

Kaga Onsen-kyo There are four famous and time-honored spas in Kaga Onsen-kyo.

Katayamazu Onsen Located near Lake Shibayama-gata, Katayamazu Onsen has modern spa hotels and the resort atmosphere leaves nothing to be desired. Meanwhile, sounds of drums and shamisen played by geigi (geisha) can be heard in the back streets. The hot spring was discovered some 350 years ago, but the spa town was not built until 1882. Since then, the town has developed as a spa resort.

Nearby Nihon Genki Gekijo is a theaterstyle entertainment park opened in July 2009.

In the reproduced traditional town, all people from children to adults can enjoy comedy shows staged by Yoshimoto, a famous entertainment company in Osaka, various other shows, and throwing shuriken knives.

Awazu Onsen

Awara Onsen

Yunokuni no Mori (Awazu Onsen)

Awazu Onsen is the oldest spa town in Kaga Onsen-kyo, established in 718 AD. High priest Taicho, the first person to stand on the top of sacred Mount Hakusan, found the spa. Ryokan Hoshi was built in the same year and is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest accommodation in the world. The current owner is the 46th generation.

Kakusen-kei Valley (Yamanaka Onsen)

At Yunokuni no Mori, you can experience making Japanese paper or soba buckwheat noodles, and applying gold leaf. Making dorayaki, a Japanese sweet consisting of two small pancakelike patties wrapped around a filling of sweet red bean paste, is a popular attraction, too.

Yamashiro Onsen Yamashiro Onsen is located on the foot of the hill. Its origin dates back to over 1,300 years ago when monk Gyoki, who established Yakuoin Onsen-ji Temple, discovered the spa.

A number of poets and artists have visited and stayed there: haiku poet Matsuo Basho; Kitaoji Rosanjin, who is renowned as an artist and cook; and Yamashita Kiyoshi, who is known as a wandering painter. The center of the town is a large public bath called Soyu and venerable ryokan are gathered around it. Hot spring water gushes forth at Gensen Park. You can enjoy drinking the water as well having a foot bath.

Yamanaka Onsen Yamanaka Onsen spa town is located along the Daishoji-gawa River in the mountain, surrounded by beautiful scenery. It is said that this spa was found by monk Gyoki 1,300 years ago. Along

with the spa, the local Yamanaka lacquerware is well known throughout Japan. Enjoy walking in Kakusen-kei Valley, a picturesque valley that Matsuo Basho was much impressed with.

Foot of Mount Hakusan Mount Hakusan is one of the Three Most Notable Mountains in Japan along with Mount Fuji, Shizuoka and Yamanashi prefectures, and Tateyama, Toyama prefecture. It has three peaks: 2,702 meter Gozenho in the center, and Onanjiho and Tsurugamine. It is also known as a sacred mountain. Its virgin beech forests are full of wild animals, including black bears, Japanese monkeys, and Japanese serows. In the sky, 150 kinds of wild birds like golden eagles and accentors fly. The mountain is also famous for its alpine plants.

Hakusanhime Shrine is located in Tsurugi town at the foot of the mountain. Known as the leading shrine in Kaga, it is the head shrine of Hakuksan Shrine, which has 3,000 branch shrines across the country. This area is one of the heaviest snowfall areas in Japan, and it experiences several meters of snow in winter. With abundant nature – sometimes severe – this area is good for outdoor leisure activities such as bird watching, hiking, camping and skiing.

Kanazawa Kanazawa is an old town sandwiched between the Sai-gawa and Asano-gawa rivers. It is the center of the Kaga area. In 1583, Maeda Toshiie moved into Kanazawa Castle as the lord of Kaga domain. From the time of the Edo government’s establishment in 1603, the Maeda family encouraged development of art and culture, so Kanazawa flourished as a castle town of the af-

fluent Kaga domain. Kanazawa is still renowned as a town home to traditional crafts including Kutani-yaki porcelain ware and Kaga Yuzen dyeing and other traditional arts and crafts.

Sightseeing In the center of the town is Kenrokuen, designated one of the Three Great Gardens of Japan, along with Kairakuen in Mito, Ibaraki prefecture, and Korakuen in Okayama, Okayama prefecture. In wintertime, you can see the unique and beautiful scenery of yuki-tsuri, in which about 800 pine trees are supported by umbrella-like ropes to protect branches against the heavy snow. Across the road to the north, there is Kanazawa Castle Park. Ishikawa-mon Gate, Sanjukken-nagaya House and Hishiyagura Tower are impressive remnants of olden times and well worth seeing. Kanazawa Castle Park and Kenrokuen are to be lit up during February 5th-7th and 11th-14th in 2010.

Seisonkaku, built by the Maeda family in 1863 is a building in a rare fusion of two differing architectural styles: sukiya-like-shoin style and shoin style. Each room is decorated with eye-catching colors like red or ultramarine. The building is stately but also has an elegant feel.

The 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa was designed by world famous architects Sejima Kazuyo and Nishizawa Ryue, who have designed museums and buildings in Europe and the U.S. Seeing the round shaped “越前打”刀具是延續了700年的鑄造技術所製作而 成的，運用這鑄造技術及最尖端潮流的設計所製成的 菜刀還被選定為紐約近代美術館的永久收藏品之一。 在武生刀具之鄉可以參觀鐵匠鑄造鐵器時，利用古法 將高溫加熱過後的鐵塊邊敲打邊延伸成形的景象。還 可以體驗如何製作紙刀。您可以在(www.att-japan.net) 網站上看到相關動畫介紹。 東尋坊‧蘆原溫泉 東尋坊是個沿著海岸邊高高聳立著的長達1公里的懸 崖。擁有日本第一奇景勝地之盛名。整片岩壁看起來像 是許多巨大的石柱連接而成，站在離海面高達25公尺 的懸崖峭壁上會讓人感到腳底發麻。這裡的奇岩在地 質學上來說也是非常的珍貴，據說包括東尋坊在內，世 界上只有三個地方才有。還可以乘船遊覽，這裏的落入 水平線的夕陽美景也很有名。當冬季天氣又冷又波濤洶 湧的時候，可以欣賞到海水濺灑拍打在岩石上變成的白 色泡沫，被寒風吹得四處飛舞的「浪之花」奇景。 從東尋坊往南下的話，有個叫做三國的漁港，因為這 裏可捕獲到越前螃蟹及甜蝦，還有寒鰤魚(青甘)而聞名。 一直以來受到許多文人墨客喜愛的蘆原溫泉離這裡也 很近。這個溫泉啟用於1883年，算是比較新的溫泉，不 過為北陸地區最大規模的溫泉街區而廣為人知。 大野 / 勝山 大野有北陸小京都之稱。是由第一代越前大野城主-金 森長近模仿京都建築而蓋的城邑都市，所以像是棋盤 般的街道井然有秩。遊客可漫步參觀已恢復原貌了的 越前大野城，史蹟及歷史性的建築，懷舊復古的商店及 湧泉等。 日本的恐龍化石有8成以上都是在勝山這個地方發 現的，在2000年日本第一家恐龍博物館在此誕生。展 示了各種恐龍的復原模型及恐龍骨骼標本等。此外還 可以用化石發掘現場的石頭體驗發掘化石的樂趣。

Kutani-yaki is a representative Japanese colorful porcelain with five bright colors: blue, green, purple, red and yellow. A craftsman, Goto Saijiro, learned pottery-making at Arita in Kyushu, a place famous for its Arita-yaki porcelain, and then built a kiln at Kutani, Ishikawa Prefecture in the mid-17th century. This original Kutani-yaki (Ko-Kutani) stopped being produced suddenly about 50 years later, but after a century-long hiatus Kutani-yaki production started up once again. The gorgeous and colorful porcelain is much favored by ceramics buffs.

As warriors in Kanazawa were encouraged to enjoy the tea ceremony, confectioneries used in the tea ceremony have long been a familiar part of the lives of local people. There are a lot of confectionery shops and you can try your hand at making a confection at Ishikawa Prefectural Kashi Bunka Kaikan (confectionery culture hall).

Most of the gold leaf made in Japan are produced in Kanazawa, and used for decoration of traditional craft works such as lacquerware, folding screens, and Buddhist altars. Aburatorigami, or oil blotting paper, is collaterally produced during the process of making gold leaf.

It, too, is a Kanazawa specialty.

roasted crab are tasty, but fresh raw crab is highly recommended. Oroshi-soba, or buckwheat noodles topped with grated radish, dried bonito flakes, and leek pieces is another popular food of Echizen. Regarding confectionery, why not try habutae-mochi? It is a fine and thin sweet with a silk-touch texture.

Kanazawa has Kanazawa Port 8 km west of the town. At the east side of the town, a range of mountains marks the border between Ishikawa and Toyama prefectures. As a result, Kanazawa is blessed with food ingredients from both the sea and land. Fostered by these ingredients and the warrior culture of the Kaga domain, sophisticated Kaga dishes were created. In addition, various types of dishes using abundant seasonal ingredients are also tasty. Omicho Market, near Kanazawa Station, has been bustling since days of old as the “kitchen of Kanazawa.” There are as many as 180 shops such as fish, meat, and vegetable shops and restaurants. If you are a newcomer to sushi, kaiten-sushi, or a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant, is recommended. There are dozens of kaiten-sushi shops in the town, including shops at Kanazawa Station and Omicho Market.

美味 代表越前地區冬季美味的就非越前螃蟹莫屬了。無 論是水煮或是燒烤都很好吃，還可以生吃味道鮮美。 加入白蘿蔔泥、柴魚片及蔥的蘿蔔泥蕎麥麵也是越前 有名的美味。這裏的小點心特色為口感細緻又嫩薄，像 是絲綢一般的甜點。 距離金澤市區西側約8公里左右有個金澤港，在市區 東邊是形成跟富山縣的分隔界限的延綿不絕的山脈， 因此金澤飽受山珍海味的大自然恩惠。運用這些天然 食材加上加賀藩的武家文化所孕育出的優雅高尚的加 賀料理。其他還可享用各種善用了四季應時食材的美 味佳餚。位於金澤站附近的近江町市場，從以前就像 是金澤的廚房一樣氣氛熱絡。這裏有賣新鮮魚類、肉 類、青菜及餐飲店等多達180家店面。如果想吃美味壽 司的話，可以選擇迴轉壽司店比較適合生手上路。迴轉 壽司店很多，包括金澤站及近江町市場等，市區裏到處 都有而且不管哪裏都很好吃。

There are bustling malls near Kamata Station, and you can enjoy shopping and eating there.

Onsen hot springs – even in Tokyo metropolis The “Oeshiki” ritual ceremony Senzoku-Ike pond

Senzoku-ike Pond Start at Senzoku Station on the Tokyu Ikegami Line. In Japanese, “Senzoku” means “washing the feet.” It is named thus because famous priest Nichiren (1222-1282) stopped at the pond to wash his feet while on his way to Hitachi-no-yu hot springs in Hitachi (now Ibaraki Prefecture) for medical care. There is a pine tree called “Kesakake matsu,” on which he hung his kesa, or robe. People come to see cherry blossoms in spring, beautiful greenery in summer, colorful leaves in autumn, and migrant birds in winter.

Some people enjoy boating. There is a stream from the pond, which is called Senzoku-nagare.

Along the stream, there is a 1.5 km promenade that is famous for its beautiful cherry blossoms.

The brook flows into the Nomi River. If you walk along the river to the south, you can reach Ikegami Baien, a plum garden. You can also reach the plum garden by train (on the Tokyu Ikegami Line) or by bus (from Senzoku-ike to Ikegami).

Ikegami Ikegami Baien is a former residence and atelier of Ito Shinsui (1898-1972), a painter of Japanese paintings. In early spring, 150 white ume trees and 200 red ume trees gorgeously bloom.

Let’s move on to Ikegami Honmon-ji Temple. Nichiren died in Ikegami in 1282.

Later, the precincts were donated to the temple and became the Ikegami Honmon-ji Temple.

Climb 96 stone steps and you will find a bell tower, a big hall, and other buildings. The fivestory pagoda, built in 1608, is the oldest such tower in the Kanto region. The Shotoen garden was made by Kobori Enshu, a gardener who was famous for producing the garden of Katsura

洗足池 從東急池上線的洗足站出發，洗足池當初是由於日蓮 上人(1222-1282)為了療養疾病，在前往常陸的溫泉途 中曾經路經此地，在池子內洗腳而得其名。有棵袈裟 掛松據說就是當時上人將他的袈裟吊掛於此。這裏春 天可以賞櫻，夏天綠意盎然，秋天紅葉美景，冬天則是 候鳥飛來聚集之地，還可以乘坐小船遊池。由洗足池 流出的水注入了洗足流裏。沿著1.5公里長的漫步人行 道種植了許多櫻花樹，一到春天櫻花盛開，美輪美奐。 而河流將流入吞川中。再往南走就會到達池上梅園。 用走的也是能到，不過可以乘坐都營公車或是東急池 上線，可從洗足池前往池上。

Five-story pagoda of Ikegami Hommon-ji Temple

Imperial Villa in Kyoto. Though it is usually not possible to see the garden, it is open to the public for a couple of days in September every year. The “Oeshiki” ritual ceremony, in which people commemorate the spirit of Nichiren, is held annually for three days from October 11th through 13th. As many as 300,000 people flock to see the event on the evening of the 12th.

If you want to buy a souvenir, kuzumochi, or arrowroot cake, is ideal. You can buy it at shops around the temple. Visiting the seven temples of the Seven Gods of Good Fortune is also a popular activity.

Next, let’s go to Kamata. If you are a good walker, you can reach Kamata on foot by walking about 2 km alongside the Nomi River. Or, if you prefer to go by train, Kamata is the second station from Ikegami on the Tokyu Ikegami Line, and it takes about three minutes.

This area is also known for Onsen (hot springs) that have black water. Leaves which are buried under the ground dissolve into groundwater and the water becomes black. Some pubic bathhouses house hot spring baths, so why not enjoy a soak and relax your body after walking?

Kamata is the most famous downtown and commercial area in the southern part of Tokyo, as well as a center of the Keihin industrial district. During the early 20th century, there were many manufacturers here that produced westernized products. A Japanese typewriter factory was built, and subsequently other leading companies of the day – including Okura Toen (Okura Art China), a ceramic maker worldfamous for its high-end ceramics, and Kagami Crystal, which produced Japan’s first crystal glass – were established in Kamata.

In 1920, Shochiku Kamata film studio opened and Kamata turned into a town with a modern atmosphere. Director Ozu Yasujiro worked there in his youth. This studio closed to move in 1936, and a diorama in the basement of Ota City Hall (Apriko) shows what it was like in those days.

～應該繼承的「日本傳統精神」～

工匠 The Craftsman - A Reflection of the Japanese Spirit © All photos by MASAO AOKI

apan is a cornucopia of traditional craftsmanship. At the same time it is a treasure house of the most advanced technologies.

And now traditional and modern technologies are being brought closer to emerge as one entity.

Rigorous efforts to realize such attempts are very much being seen in modern Japan, making it one of the important characteristics of Japanese technology.

Glimpses of true Japan can be seen more closely when you learn something about the artistry of skill and expression and, the way of living and philosophy of, the Japanese craftspeople.

Japanese traditional craftsmanship: It is a technology of craft making born out of and, shaped from sympathetic feelings toward life in nature …

In Japan a blacksmith would say ‘iron is a living thing,’ a potter would say ‘earth is a living thing,’ while a lacquer worker would say ‘lacquer is a living thing.’

In modern technological thinking, the self cuts itself apart from nature and assumes omnipotence. It then looks at nature as an objective body from which resources are to be taken for its own good. It may be said that modern technology is rooted in such tendencies.

Contrary to this, the technology of traditional craftsmanship does not accept the concept of “man vs. nature,” but takes on a more mutual and friendly relationship in which man and nature sympathize with each other or sometimes even co-mingle.

Woodsmen who are experienced and fully equipped with traditional technology of wood cutting of forests are able to know the history of growth and health of each tree just by touching it. They can exactly judge which tree can or cannot be cut by merely looking at clusters of trees in a forest. Such judgment of those experienced woodsmen determines the future of the trees and whether or not the area would become spirited forests again.

Ability to hear voices of nature Those experts of traditional technology in old days may surely have had “an ability to hear voices of natural living things.”

Though modern Japanese people do not have such extraordinary ability, you will find so many expressions in Japanese language treating nature as an equal to humans such as, “the trees are whispering” or “the wind is calling.”

The technical term for such expressions is called personification. However Japanese craftsmen are not personifying nature but rather treating it as their equal.

It can be said that the mentality of ancient men since time unknown may have been preserved in traditional craftsmanship.

10 att. JAPAN Jan-Feb/2010

How technology is to be treated in the future Advancement in modern industrial technologies have brought a wide range of material richness, however it has also spread public hazards such as environmental destruction, seriously threatening the very existence of natural life that very well includes human life.

It may well be interpreted that such dangerous situations have occurred as a result of dismissing this ability to listen to nature as being “non-scientific.” We humans have given in to this one-sided view and treated nature as merely an object to be exploited by humans to be used for industrial purposes.

When we think of future technology and its relationship to man, we should once again think thoroughly as to how Japanese craftsmen have inherited this ability to hear voices from nature and that we should certainly give vital importance to human sustenance with technology in the future.

In “att.JAPAN,” prominent Japanese traditional craftsman will be occasionally introduced.

，同時也是個最先進 日本是個傳統技術的寶庫 的高科技寶庫。現在這兩種系統的技術將要 漸漸地合為一體了。目前以這樣的動向為目標的活 動特別活躍，也是個日本的一大特徵。 只要學會日本工匠們的技藝、表情和哲理，就會 加深理解其中的奧秘。

日本還仍然保持著傳統的技藝。 那就是和自然產生共鳴的製造技術―。 在日本，有的鐵匠說：鐵是活的!有的陶瓷工匠說： 土壤本身是個生物。還有的漆匠說：漆也是個生靈。 從現代技術的觀點來看，首先要把自己當成主 宰，從自然分離開來，然後隨便從作為客體的自 然，把對人類有用的東西奪過來。一般近代技術都 會有這樣的傾向。 基本上，工匠們都會有父子相傳的技藝。按照他 們的說法，自己和自然的關係，可以說是不像近代 思想那樣主人和客人總是對立的，而是有時能互 相進行交流，有時能成為一體的緊密對等關系。 從森林裏把木材砍伐出來時，具有傳統技術的 樵夫們，一碰到樹皮就會知道那棵樹的成長狀況， 甚至連哪棵樹有沒有病都察覺得到。他還可以一看 到樹林，立刻就能判斷出哪棵樹該砍，哪棵樹不得 砍下。由他們的判斷來決定能不能完好無損地復 原森林狀態。

聽得到自然呼喚的功能

Reference literature: SHOKUNIN - TSUTAETAI NIHON NO “TAMASHII” (The Craftsman - A Reflection of the Japanese Spirit) / S.B.B Edition, Sankosha This book reveals how outstanding Japanese craftsmen maintain and develop their traditional craftsmanship of world repute through interviews with them; the book is a precious one.

我相信過去深知傳統技藝的工匠們，肯定都會“聽 得到自然呼喚的功能” 。雖然現代日本人已經失去 了這種能力，但是，在日語當中還有宛如把自然當 成人類的說法，比如說樹木在喃喃細語啊，風在呼 喚我等等。 如此般說法叫做擬人法。但工匠們不單單是把 自然擬人化，而是完全把自己和自然一視同仁。 不少的工匠們到現在也還保留著古人的想法，也

就是說人和自然無意識的融為一體。

未來應有的技術狀態 現代工業發展確實讓我們的生活豐富多彩，但是 還同時產生了不少環境汙染等嚴重的公害問題，不 僅包括人類，還使所有的生命體陷入困境。那也許 是大自然對人類的懲罰吧。因為把「能聽得到自然 呼喚的能力」當成非科學的廢物而打算排除它，或 只靠人類的判斷而為所欲為，結果把自然當成加工 的對象，因此自然才會報復人類吧! 要研究今後未來應有的技術狀態時，應該還要 把工匠們保留至今的「聽得到自然呼喚的功能」重 新思考一下。我可以斷言，這個問題以後一定會成 為最重要的研究課題。 我們今後還會不定期在att.JAPAN裡，將發揚優良 傳統的工匠們介紹給大家。

Yokohama Walking

– Cruising in the sky above Yokohama –

橫濱散步 - 橫濱 空中漫步 -

Y

okohama is known for its beautiful night view, so seeing the town of Yokohama from the vantage point of a helicopter in the sky is sure to be fun.

Helicopter cruising excursions depart from and land in the Minato Mirai 21 area. Minato Mirai heliport is adjacent to Rinko Park, and it takes about 10 minutes to get from Minato Mirai Station on Minato Mirai Line. As you approach the heliport, you will begin to hear the roar of a helicopter and your anticipation will gradually increase.

After checking in, just place your baggage in a locker and wait for your flight to take off. As the helicopter noise increases, you will be able to see the helicopter returning from its previous flight, and it will shortly thereafter arrive at the heliport. The movement of the rotor blades creates a strong wind around the helicopter.

Following instructions from the staff, board the helicopter and fasten your seatbelt. The flight will now begin.

After lightly hovering, the helicopter rises in the direction of the sky above the sea. It then turns around, and a breathtakingly sweeping night view of Minato Mirai opens up. The

big Ferris wheel in Yokohama Cosmo World sparkles, as do Yokohama Landmark Tower and the nearby skyscrapers. Below, you can see various boats and vessels in Yokohama Bay and the illuminated Yokohama Bay Bridge. You can also see brilliant lines of cars on the bridge and expressways. Haneda Airport shines in the distance and the lights of Umihotaru, a rest area of Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line on Tokyo Bay, can be seen far away. This is a superb night view.

The helicopter makes an approximately 10-minute flight at an altitude of 500-600 meters, while the pilot introduces must-see places. Explanations in English are available, but please request this service when placing your reservation.

There are other flight plans available, including a 5-minute “Twilight course,” which starts at sunset and enables you to see the town as it starts twinkling in the dusk, and a 20-minute “Private course,” in which you can reserve the helicopter for you and your group. Taking advantages of these various options, you can enjoy flying here many times across different seasons, times and courses. Enjoy helicopter cruising in Yokohama!

Yamashiro Onsen

山代溫泉

K

aga Onsen-kyo area in Ishikawa Prefecture is noted for its fine hot springs, and Yamashiro Onsen is one of them. Yamashiro Onsen has a long history: more than 1,300 years ago, high priest Gyoki was on his way to sacred mountain Hakusan for training when he found a wounded crow, which cured its damaged wing in a puddle. He soaked his hand in the water and found it a hot spring.

The crow was the legendary “Yatagarasu,” which is said to have been a sacred bird that led Emperor Jinmu.

Yamashiro Onsen is also known as being a hot spring that was loved by Kitaoji Rosanjin (1883-1959), a multi-talented person who was renowned as a painter, potter, calligrapher, lacquerware artist, cook, and gourmet.

Rosanzin, who created some 200,000 pieces of pottery during his life, became interested in making pottery there and created works using Yatagarasu as a motif.

“Soyu” is a symbol of Yamashiro Onsen.

Soyu is a public bath which has been used since the time when each ryokan did not have its own bath. The Soyu building was re-opened in August 2009 and anyone can enjoy a casual soak in the bath here. Half-boiled eggs called “Onsen tamago”, which are made by soaking eggs in hot springs for eight hours, are sold at a Soyu shop. As many as 1,000 eggs are sold every day!

Ryokan, Japanese-style hotels, stand around the Soyu. Gensen Park adjacent to Soyu is a unique place in Yamashiro Onsen, and hot water gushes forth from the spring. You can enjoy soaking your feet in a foot bath with no charge,

and the water from the source can be drunk.

Of course, you should not drink too much.

Drink less than one cup at a time, and drink it slowly as if chewing. Yakuoin Onsen-ji Temple was established by Gyoki for protection of the Onsen, and many mountain ascetics used to gather there as it was a training center for esoteric Buddhism.

The Hokurikku area, including Ishikawa Prefecture, is one of the most ingredient-rich areas in Japan. Here you can eat delicious Japanese food that makes use of fresh seafood such as crabs, northern pink prawn and yellowtails from the Sea of Japan, as well as vegetables and fruits from arable lands that have good water and soil. You can also enjoy golfing and skiing in this area, and it's easy to visit the nearby Tateyama/Kurobe, Kanazawa, Eihei-ji Temple and Tojinbo for sightseeing.

山代溫泉是溫泉勝地石川縣加賀溫泉鄉之一。其 歷史悠久，據今超過1300年前，高僧行基前往靈峰白 山修行途中，看到在熱水中療養翅膀傷口的烏鴉。伸 手一探居然是溫泉水。那隻烏鴉就叫八尺烏，是傳說 中幫神武天皇引路的三腳神鳥。 山代溫泉也因北大路魯山人(1883-1959)而聞名， 此人身兼畫家、陶藝家、書法家、漆藝家、料理家、美 食家等。一生製作約有20萬件陶瓷器的魯山人，是在 山代開啟陶藝創作，留下許多八尺烏相關的作品。 總湯(設於旅館外的公共浴場)是山代溫泉的象徵。 在旅館內尚未設有室內浴池的年代，總湯是所謂的公 共澡堂，即使現在也是大家享受溫泉的好地方。新的 總湯在2009年8月正式啟用。總湯的商店有賣浸泡在 源泉8小時的溫泉蛋，一天居然可賣上1000多個!! 總湯四周蓋有旅館，將總湯團團圍住。總湯一旁即 是源泉公園，是山代溫泉的發源地，源泉源源不斷地 湧出，還可免費泡腳。源泉亦可飲用。最好一次以一杯 輕輕地、慢慢地一口一口咀嚼般地飲用。藥王院溫泉 寺是行基為了保護溫泉所創立的，曾經是密教的主要 道場，聚集很多修行者。 北陸地區富有許多日本稀少珍貴的食材，可以品嘗 到螃蟹、北國紅蝦、鰤魚等豐富且新鮮的日本海魚貝 類，以及使用良好水質與土壤孕育出的蔬菜與水果所 做成的日本料理。除了可享受鄰近的高爾夫與滑雪之 外，亦是通往立山黑部、金澤、永平寺、東尋坊等的觀 光據點，是相當便利的溫泉聖地。

How to bathe in an Onsen ///////////// 溫泉入浴方法 up to your waist, followed by chest, then neck. In doing so your body will slowly get used to the water temperature. Do not put the towel into the water. You may see people fold and put it on their heads, now you know why - it doesn’t belong in the water. You may also put it on the side of the tub.

First of all you will have to completely undress. Clothes are to be taken off in the dressing room (known as the datsui-jo in Japanese).

Other than your birthday suit, you may bring one small towel or washcloth to the bathing area for washing with. Do not make the mistake of changing into and going in your bathing suit! It is not allowed.

Once in the bathing area, rinse off with hot water before getting into the onsen. At some places there will be a stone tub by the entrance, at others you may be able to wash with soap, bucket and using a tap, and at other you will have to take the water directly from the onsen itself (In Japanese this is called kakeh-yu). Kakeh-yu can be done with a small bowl or bucket (sometimes with a handle). Hot water is drawn from the tub or tap and poured over the entire body to rinse thoroughly. This is considered one of the most important points of onsen manners.

3

After you have completely rinsed, it’s time to get into the hot tub.

It’s best to get in slowly at first. Get in slowly up to your knees, then

One dip is usually no more than 10 minutes. As there are mineral elements in the water, longer exposure is not only relaxing, but allows the body to soak up more of those minerals. Getting in at least 2 to 3 times a day is reasonable.

Where tap and washing stalls are available, switching from wash stall to tub and back is up to you. Do so at will. Never bring the soap or suds into the tub!

6 7

Some hot springs provide more than one tub, such as the rotenburo (outdoor onsen). Switching from bath to bath may also be done freely.

8

Once out of the onsen, dry off with a towel. Taking a nap is effective; bathing in a hotspring takes quite some physical energy.

When your body is hot and you are totally relaxed, taking a shower is entirely up to you, although may be a waste of the onsen’s mineral healing properties. Leaving them to soak in may be better for your skin.

1 2

首先在更衣室卸下衣服。只有小毛巾或是浴巾可以帶進 入浴場所。 ＃穿泳衣入浴是禁止的，請注意！

在洗澡的地方：首先入溫泉池前，先用熱水將身體沖洗 乾淨。不同的溫泉有不同的入浴方式；有的入口的旁邊 有溫泉池，有的有肥皂和桶子可以盥洗的地方，也有的用桶 子直接從溫泉池取水。從溫泉池或是水龍頭取水將身體沖 洗乾淨是最重要的。

3

洗澡後入溫泉池。剛開始將半身、胸部以下泡在水裡。 由膝蓋順著腰、胸到肩慢慢地習慣。請不要將毛巾帶進 溫泉池內。可將毛巾褶好放在頭上或是放在溫泉池邊。

4

入浴時間以一次十分鐘為適當。因為含有礦物質，適當 的入浴時間不但可以放鬆而且還可以吸收礦物質。一天 的入浴次數以2-3次為佳。

5 6 7

如果有盥洗的地方，來回於溫泉池和盥洗的地方幾次也 是不錯的。 ＃請不要將肥皂帶入溫泉池內。

8

從溫泉池出來用毛巾把身體擦乾。睡個午覺對身體也 很好。溫泉有恢復體力的效果。

像露天溫泉〈戶外的溫泉〉等，有的有好幾個溫泉池。 可以自由來回使用。 足夠暖和又覺得輕鬆後就起來吧！ 因為溫泉的礦物質 殘留在身體上，沖不沖澡依個人喜好。

親子煮 Oyako-ni

Chicken cooked with egg

Ingredients (serves 4) 2 tablespoons sugar 1 tablespoon mirin 1 cup Japanese soup stock 1 1/8 cups (7.6 fl oz/225 ml) water 5 cm (2 inch) piece of kelp (kombu) 3/4 cup dried bonito (kezuribushi, or katsuobushi)

Preparations: To prepare the Japanese soup stock (dashi), first make a slit in the kelp. In a pot, soak the kelp in 1 1/8 cups (7.6 fl oz /225 ml) of water for at least 60 minutes. Place the pot over the heat until it is about to boil, and then remove the kelp. In the same pot, add the 3/4 of a cup of dried bonito, then remove from the heat and leave to cool. Strain and retain the liquid.

3. Heat the sauce until it is boiling, and then place the onion slices in the pan.

4. Place the chicken and shiitake mushrooms on top of the onion slices.

5. Mix the eggs roughly in a bowl.

② ① ④

③

Directions: 1. ①Slice the chicken into 1 cm (0.4 inch) thick pieces. ②Slice the onion into 2 mm (0.1 inch) thick pieces. ③Cut away the root clusters from the shiitake mushrooms, and separate the caps and stalks. Slice the shiitake mushroom caps into 2 mm (0.1 inch) thick slices.

Slice the shiitake mushroom stalks into 2 mm (0.1 inch) thick round slices. ④Cut the trefoils into 3 cm (1.2 inch) long pieces. Set the leaves to one side.

6. When the chicken turns white, pour the eggs over the chicken and vegetables, and cook for about 2 minutes until the egg is soft-boiled.

2. In a frying pan or shallow pot, mix the Japanese soup stock, soy sauce, sugar, and mirin.

For more details, go to http://www.att-japan.net/recipe/

7. Sprinkle the trefoil leaves over the eggs.

Use a turner (fish slice) to serve the dish.

Tips: It is recommended that you do not completely mix the whites and yolks of the eggs. Half-mixed eggs enhance the flavor of the dish.

The oyako-ni can be served atop boiled rice in a bowl, forming a popular Japanese dish called "oyako-don."

Chicken thigh meat is recommended for its good flavor and the juiciness of its skin. If you prefer a low-fat recipe, skinless thigh, breast, and breast fillet (sasami) are recommended as alternatives.

Japanese Liquid Measures: 1 cup = 200ml = 6.76 fl oz 1 tablespoon = 15ml = 0.5 fl oz 1 teaspoon = 5ml = 0.16 fl oz

Tourist Information Transportation / 交通

Rail Japan is covered in a rail network that reaches to almost every corner of the archipelago. Most are owned and run by the Japan Railway (JR) system and the world famous “Shinkansen” bullet train is of course one of the fastest and most enjoyable forms of land transport anywhere -- the distance between Tokyo and Osaka being covered in just 2hrs 30 mins on the fastest line.

Japan Rail Pass Japan Rail Pass allows you to use the whole JR system (including the Shinkansen) but is only sold outside Japan. 28,300 yen gets you a full 7 day ticket (adults).

For more info, check the Japan Rail Pass website: http://japanrailpass.net

Bus Long-distance buses in Japan are run by numerous companies including JR. Buses are generally more economic than traveling by plane or train but do take longer and can be affected by traffic jams at busy times of the day or night.

Local buses run all over Japan as well as in the major cities and sometimes English instructions or stop announcements are used but this is not the case everywhere. We would recommend you ask drivers to remind you of where you must disembark prior to setting off.

Tourist Information

Taxis Japanese taxis can be found at the exit to every train station in the country or alternatively hailed on the streets. The red sign visible through the windshield of the car: “空車” (kusha) means it is vacant and available for hire but when the sign reads “賃走” (chinso), it is unavailable. The back door on the left side will open and close automatically so be careful not to stand too close! (All the other doors are operated manually) Rates vary depending on the taxi company but usually start at a fixed rate of 710 yen (in Tokyo) for the first two kilometers.

26 att. JAPAN Jan-Feb/2010

The rate system is shown inside the taxi and receipts can be issued.

accepted on JR lines, subways and most other railways and buses.

鐵路 日本的鐵路網相當發達，從日本國內到各處幾乎利用鐵路可到 達，主要有JR(Japan Railway Co., Ltd., 日本旅客鐵路)運行 著，在這當中藉由世界上也很有名的「新幹線」之移動，一定會 是日本旅行中最印象深刻的活動之一。東京─大阪間最快是2 個小時30分。

The Tokyo Furii Kippu (東京フリーきっぷ) (http:// www.jreast.co.jp/e/pass/) is available for use on JR lines (inside Tokyo’s 23 wards), subways, and the Toei Bus service for one whole day -- ending at midnight -- at a charge of 1,580 yen.

JAPAN RAIL PASS(日本鐵路旅遊券)是可利用包含新幹 線的日本全國的JR，只有在日本國外才有販賣，一個大人一週間 ¥28300。詳情請看JAPAN RAIL PASS的網站 http://www.japanrailpass.net

在東京，大阪等大都市的交通系統被充分的整備，如果使用電 車或是地下鐵的話可到達任何地方，如果不想浪費為了購買車 票而排隊的時間，建議您利用預付費卡。

巴士 包含JR，有許多公司提供長距離巴士的運行，一般來說比藉由 飛機和鐵路的旅行較具經濟性，但是所花的時間比較長，也 較容易受交通阻塞的影響。 主要的都市、城鎮可利用公車線路，最近雖然英語的表示和 廣播也逐漸增加，但是為了確實地到達目的地，建議您事先拜 託駕駛員，請駕駛員到達目的地時通知一下。 計程車 除了可搭乘等候在車站前的計程車外，在路上也可叫到計程 車。計程車能不能搭乘，可藉由車窗前部分的表示來判斷。顯 示「空車」的時候，表示無人乘坐，可搭乘。出現「賃走」時表 示已經有別的乘客搭乘了。車子左後方的車門會自動打開與關 閉，所以要注意一下不要靠的太近被車門撞到(其他的車門用手 打開與關閉)。車費根據計程車公司而有所不同，但是一般起 跳710日圓(最初的2公里)，車資的體制告示在車內裡，也可拿 到收據。

Getting Around in Tokyo / 東京的交通 In big cities, such as Tokyo and Osaka, the under and over ground train system is well organized and highly efficient accessing any and all parts of the cities. To avoid wasting time lining up for tickets and working out how to use the machines in different stations, it is highly recommended to purchase pre-paid cards.

Transportation cards/useful tickets If planning to stay in Japan for a longer period why not try using IC cards? (500 yen deposit returned when returning the card) Simply touch the card on a rectangular pad beside the ticket gate and the fare used is automatically deducted from the value of the card. In Tokyo the cards are known as Suica or PASMO and are

划算的交通卡 如果預定在日本逗留一些時間的話，不妨試試看IC卡吧！(購入 時要付¥500的保證金，將卡歸還時，保證金會退還給您。)在 剪票機旁的讀取機上觸摸一下，運費會從卡上自動被扣取。在 東京地區Suica和PASMO兩者除了JR線、地下鐵、其他大部分 的私鐵之外，也可搭乘巴士。 如果使用Tokyo Furii Kippu(www.jreast.co.jp/e/pass/)的 話，可在一天內無限制乘坐JR(東京23區內)加上地下鐵、都營 巴士，一張票¥1580。

Getting Around in Osaka / 關西的交通

Transportation cards/useful tickets

In the Kansai (Osaka) area ICOCA or PiTaPa is available IC cards similar to Suica / PASMO. The Kansai Thru Pass (スルッと関西 ) (http:// www.surutto.com/) offers a similar service to the Tokyo Furii Kippu in Kansai and enables subway, railway (bar JR lines), and bus use throughout the Kansai area. Price - 3,800 yen for 2 days or 5,000 yen for 3 days. 在關西(大阪)地區有ICOCA和PiTaPa兩種IC卡扮演著跟Suica/ PASMO同樣的角色。 KANSAI THRU PASS(www.surutto.com)能夠自由乘坐關 西地區的地下鐵、私鐵(JR線除外)及巴士。2日乘車卡¥3800、 3日乘車卡¥5000。

Tourist Information Money / 貨幣 Credit cards are widely used in urban areas in Japan but personal cheques are usually not seen as part of everyday financial transactions.

Furthermore, most shops, restaurants, or public service facilities will not accept foreign currency or travelers cheques. 在日本雖然信用卡在都市廣泛普及，但是支票在一般日常生活 中無法被利用。還有，在許多的商店或是餐廳、公共設施裡不 接受外國貨幣和旅行支票的付款，要注意。

Money Exchange Exchanging non-Japanese currency for yen can be carried out at international airports, and most major banks. At the airports exchanging Japanese yen into foreign currency is also possible.

Operating hours are usually 6:30am-11:00pm.
