ハートから愛降り注ぐ 恋のパワースポット「長沢の滝」
ハート形の岩穴から愛が降り注ぐようだ。高知県津野町芳生野乙の長沢の滝。「恋のパワースポット」として町がＰＲしている。
滝は高さ約３４メートル。自然に削られた岩穴から白い水が流れ落ちる。恋愛成就を願うカップルや中高年の夫婦が車で訪れる。水量が少ない冬は木立のなかでハート形がくっきり見える。
町によると、スキー場もある天狗高原のふもとにある滝周辺は例年１１月には雪が降るため、車で近づきにくいという。今年は１２月に入っても暖かい日が多く、クリスマス連休も穏やかな天候が続いている。ただ年末は寒気が強まる予報が出ており、ハートの滝を鑑賞できる時は限られそうだ。

Japan Vlog #12 'Making' Okonomiyaki
Me and Marin decided to eat Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き) in Aeon Mall, Imaike, Nagoya.
It's a traditional Japanese food that is sometimes called Japanese Pancake or Japanese Pizza. It's a savory dish that is a bit more like an omelette or frittata than a pancake and it's made with okonomiyaki flour, eggs, cabbage, pork (bacon), shrimp or other seafood, and topped with a variety of condiments like sweet sauce (Okonomi Sauce), mayonnaise, dried seaweed and dried fish flakes.

Autumn Fujiwara Festival Hiraizumi Chusonji Motsuji Kagura Dance Shishi Odori Deer Dance Ennen no Ma
Autumn Fujiwara Festival Hiraizumi Chusonji Motsuji Kagura Dance Shishi-Odori (Deer Dance) Ennen-no-Mai (Longevity Dance) Chusonji Noh by Kari Gröhn karigrohncom Fuziwara Autumn Festival Hiraizumi 平泉
In the 12th century, the Fujiwara family used their economic strength and political abilities to create a magnificent aristocratic culture in northern Japan. But their close relationship with Minamoto no Yoshitsune (1159-1189) resulted in the family’s ruin. Yoshitsune was getting estranged with his half brother Shogun Yoritomo after their allied force destroyed the Heike. He fled and asked the Fujiwaras for help. The family could not reject Yoshitsune, which incurred Yoritomo’s wrath. The Shogun attacked the Fujiwaras with overwhelming military power. Thus the prosperity that lasted three generations came to end in 1189. The magnificent buildings and structures in Hiraizumi were reduced to ashes except the Golden Hall of Chusonji temple built in 1124. The oldest Buddhist garden of paradise in Japan is in front of the Motsuji temple.
Shishi Odori (Deer Dance) There is a variety of shishi odori throughout Japan. Shishi odori in Hiraizumi is a deer dance. Dancers wear shishi-gashira (deer mask) decorated with antlers and incorporate deer’s behaviour into the energetic dance. Shishi odori was originally performed as a type of wake. When a hunter killed a deer, its vengeful spirit had to be pacified. Shishi is translated as lion but it also refers to a deer or dog with magical properties and the power to repel evil spirits. Shishi-mai (lion dance) is part of the New Year’s festival, when shishigashira performers visit each home in the neighbourhood to cast charms against evil spirits and diseases while receiving offerings. Shishigashira is placed near a newborn baby boy because the lion's magic is believed to protect the boy from evil spirits and misfortune. A pair of shishi traditionally stands outside the gates of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples.
Ennen-no-Mai (Longevity Dance) Most solemn and mystic is a dance of an old woman with white hair. In the dancer’s soundless slow movements there is a unique rhythm which makes the audience forget the passing of time. Ennen-no-mai dance at Motsuji Temple is dedicated to the god Matarajin. It was the past-meeting banquet held by priests at temples after the ceremonial reading of sutras. Literally ennen means long life, and it was presented to remove all evil and to pray for a long life and happiness.
