I saw the news that said Sakuras (Cherry blossoms) in Tokyo are blooming, so today I would like to share some pictures I took in Saga last year, and introduce some facts about Sakura.

In Japan every year the public will track “Sakura zensen”（桜前線） which is indicating to when Sakura would bloom and via weather forecast to tell the exact date.

So what is the Sakura zensen’s function? Why should Japanese everyone be concerned about this?

It is HANAMI(花見)!!

Japanese love to view Sakura with sake or beer right sit under the Sakura tree. They would have a party with fellow workers, classmates, relatives or even the boss in company.

If you visit Japan in April. You would find that there are always so many people gathering in the park. I really love this culture in Japan and I’ve done it once.lol

SAGA

1th April, 2010

I started my new life in a different country. The country which is in the urban and have polite culture, and fresh air. I love this country so much that although after I came back to my country-Taiwan, I can’t make me to stop reminding of it.

The country is-SAGA!!

So, where is SAGA? It’s in the North of Kyushu in Japan. It is next to the biggest city, also the most comfortable city to live-Fukuoka. Even though Saga is not really a city, but because it is next to the big city, so we can live in this country conveniently.

So, I love my daily life in SAGA, where I’ve been lived in for one year.

And I would like to share many things about Japan happened in SAGA .
