"Ise Katagami" is used for dyeing kimonos. It is a traditional craft technique that has been passed down in Suzuka City, Mie Prefecture for over a thousand years. ``Ise Katagami'' is made by a craftsman called a katagami, who uses a chisel to carve intricate patterns and designs onto durable Japanese paper. It is surprising that more than 900 patterns are carved into a single inch (approximately 3cm) corner using a very fine piece of material. This time, we will be dyeing postcards using a pattern carved by Chiaki Imazaka, a traditional craftsman. Why not dye it in your favorite color, create an original postcard, and send it to your loved ones with a message? We also have 6 different designs of this year's zodiac signs, ``Dragon'' and ``Seahorse.'' We recommend sending it to a loved one or to yourself as a memento of your trip to Tokyo.

It is a one-day canoe tour of Ogawa called "clear stream of miracle". As a river where canoeing is possible, the water of the river is really clear and transparent. It flows slowly, and it does not feel much stress because it is repeated so favorably. The width of the river is narrow, and it is safe because it can land on the nearby riverside immediately when it is overturned or tired. Even beginners can enjoy canoeing fun. What is the secret of "the miracle clear stream"? It is in the formation of a river. Looking at the surrounding mountains, it looks like 60% of evergreen trees, 20% of broadleaf trees and 20% of cedar trees. When I planted cedar in Japan, I think it was not planted because there was no soil. So the mountain is kept healthy. If you look closely, there are many small swamps in the river, but usually you can not see water on the surface. I think it is probably going underground and welling up. So this river is a gathering of spring water! You can see many fish from the top of the canoe. It seems that the fish species is the best in Japan when combined with the mainstream of Kitagawa! Certainly 246 types? I wonder if it was? That is a rich river. We will not go canoeing since September, when it will be a traditional fishing with sweetfish which will be traditional sweetfish fishing. Because it causes trouble to the fisherman. It is limited to the period from April to August.
