Heart beating

‘仍想结婚的女人‘这剧情，扣人心弦。女主角背景被嫌弃，作了明智的选择却往往是泪水往里吞的局势。。。 心疼。

主人翁事事顺利时， 我也乐在其中。心情被它牵引着。。。

Wrapped up for growth

Even without leaves, these trees are enchanting.

When bound together, they look interesting.

Where's the idea of 'ugliness' in nature? Totally absent!

Building Love

Fell in love with these structures made of straw and wood. NO glue or nails! No cement!


Can stand earthquake, strong wind and snow! But very very susceptible to fire.

Such a beauty in the snow...

Even the drain looks superb

Even the water droplets from the eaves of the roof at Shirakawago is enchanting! The carps in the drains were beautiful. Aiyo... so enchanting. So glad that we stayed over at a traditional Thatched roof house (which many tourists do not attempt).

wish Fulfilled

I've always wanted to visit a world heritage site.

My first is SHIRAKAWAGO, JAPAN!

On 14 Mar 2010, Sunday, I reached 白川谷(shirakawago) with my travelmates. And we were enchanted. Living in one of the thatched roof houses was an experience indeed.

At dinner, the lady of the house played the samisen and introduced very traditional instruments to us. Frankly, I didn't even know they existed!

Night was tough as the paper thin walls are cold for us tropical folks. It didn't help that the heater switches itself off every now and then.

Staying over gave us photographs without other tourists as background and we saw a million stars!
