Hi,

Today I added some pictures. They are all taken in the last few weeks, which I enjoyed very much.

Actually these are the final pictures. The site has reached full capacity. I hope anyway that through this site I could give you an idea about Japan..

Have a merry Easter!

Greetings

The cherry blossom (桜 or 櫻 sakura) is Japan’s unofficial national flower. It has been celebrated for many centuries and takes a very prominent position in Japanese culture.

Today, after a 10 day visit, my twin brother went back to Sri Lanka. Because I had to work during the week, he had to see most of Tokyo and Kyoto alone. Yet, at night and in the weekends we enjoyed time together. Thanks to his curiosity I discovered and rediscovered the potential of places as Yoyogi and Ueno park and Yokohama City and its ferry terminal..
