MAP, About Hometown



About the previous blog, this is a map I painted.
The distance of Tokyo and Toyama where I was born is about 400km, =250miles.

I wrote about my hometown last month. blog title:Go back hometown







This is a festival poster at my hometown, Takaoka city, Toyama Prefecture.
It holds on May 1 every year.

Some big decorated old cars(this picture) go on a main street of Takaoka. One of famous Samurais, Toyotomi Hideyoshi gave them to Maeda Samurai who gaverend there about 400 years ago.

There is many food stands called "yatai" there. Many children and parents are enjoyable. And for teenager, it is a good date place.

I also remember the date there... Nothing!

When I was a high school student, I went to this festival with many school mates. It's good memory.
