Hello international friends. It’s nice weather today. I’ve recommended many workshops in Kumamoto before. I work at Kawashiri elementary school now. Kawashiri has lots traditional buildings and shops and places, like shrine, temple, Japanese sweet shop, 刃物 cutlery shop, and 瑞鷹 ZUIYOU (famous Sake maker), 銭湯sentou(traditional spa) ,,,more. Now, 3rd grade students study about their school’s, their town environment as social subject. You also might see lots students go around the town to see, to search with line this week. Even in 30 munites walk, you can find many interesting, historical places. If you are afraid where you should go, you may go to 工芸会館 Kougeiaikan at first. It also tells and shows many traditional products. During your short trip, you might see lots local trains and Sinkansen easily. I hope you enjoy the small traditional town!!ーAtsuko(Ü)
