08:56Thank you for coming.
08:58First of all, you have to choose a word.

09:26I'll explain the procedure.
09:30First, you copy the pattern you chose with carbon paper.
09:38Next, you use a brush and paint.
09:45For example, this is a Monjyaki dotei.
09:50At this stage, you just need to make the outline clear.
09:55Then you paint it.
10:01It's very three-dimensional.
10:03Yes.
10:04This is the highest level of the Taikyoku-no-koma.
10:11There are three steps to writing.
10:14First, you start with the draft.
10:25It's OK.
10:29There aren't many squares.
10:31So, you just do it like this.
10:34If you make a mistake, you can correct it as many times as you want.
10:39The second step is to make the outline clear.
10:47Lastly, you pour the paint into the outline.
11:01It's important to make the outline clear.
11:07When you start drawing, you use a brush, right?

12:06There is a rare Ukiyo-e museum in Tendo.

12:13In 1997, the Hiroshige Museum was built in Tendo
12:17as a result of the relationship between
12:20Bakumatsu and Utagawa Hiroshige.
12:29The Hiroshige Museum exhibits Ukiyo-e paintings and
12:34Niku-shitsu paintings of Hiroshige on various themes.
12:46This time, we exhibited the travel of Tokaido and the landscape of Mizube.

12:56and the landscape of Ukiyo-e paintings of Hiroshige.
13:10The distinctive features were expanded and displayed in an easy-to-understand manner.

13:31Japan Tour of the Beautiful Scenery
13:34This time, we traveled around Yamagata City, Yamagata Prefecture.
13:38Next, we visited the beautiful scenery of the Mogami River,
13:42Oe-machi.
13:50The Aterazawa-Tateyama-jo Shiseki Park is commonly known as the best park in Japan.
14:01I was always curious about the origin of the best park in Japan,
14:06and it was written here.
14:08In the early days of the Shogunate, when road construction was underway,
14:12when construction workers passed this road,
14:15they said,
14:17this is the best park in Japan.
14:20From there, they began to greet each other,
14:23saying, let's go to the best park in Japan.
14:27What does it look like?
14:29The best park in Japan!
14:31It's a wonderful view.
14:35It's just my personal impression.
14:39But it's beautiful.
14:43The Mogami River, which is 229 km long,
14:48is a place where you can enjoy a magnificent view of the river.
14:54In the 9th year of Heisei, the Mogami River was chosen as a viewpoint
14:59because of its beautiful view.
15:04You can take pictures in the beautiful Mogami River.
15:07It's also a park with a mosaic.
15:13You can enjoy with your friends in the Mogami River.
15:16It's a park where you can enjoy the scenery of Mogami river.
15:20It's a wonder for tourists.
15:23It was the best place for a trip.
15:26It's a famous place for a good day.
15:29It's a wonderful view.
15:31Oe-machi is the birthplace of the former Mogamigawa-kō-eki.
15:41You can learn about its history at the History Museum.
15:47Inside the Saitō-kei-no-Omoya, which flourished as a merchant of Aoso during the Edo period,
16:03there are kimonos and orikis made in Aoso.
16:17Aoso is the birthplace of the Iraku-saka, which grows in the mountains and fields.
16:31It was used as a high-class kimono, such as narasarashi, oji, and chijimi-e,
16:37kamishimo, and fuyū-kaikyū.
16:53In the Edo period, when the Mogamigawa-kō-eki was flourishing,
16:57Aoso was transported to various places, and it is said that Tomi was built on this land.
17:20In addition, there are many old agricultural and civil goods, such as urushiro and yo-san, displayed.
17:50As a photo spot, we head to the waterfall, which is very popular.
18:13Midare-gawa-keikoku is a power spot in Higashine City, which is full of miracles.
18:25The Anaba-spot, Sekiyama-Ōtaki, is a place where you can feel the scent of the flowing water.
18:43The height of the waterfall is about 10 meters, and the width is about 15 meters.
18:50The charm of this place is the beauty of the water flowing like a waterfall on a giant semicircular rock.
19:20How was your trip to Yamagata Prefecture, a beautiful place in Japan?
19:48Well, I was able to go around various historical sites.
19:52Well, where should I go next?
19:56What? You're not going to tell me a joke?
19:59Well, I can't help it.
20:02Actually, I didn't think it was a good idea, so I went to Yamagata Prefecture in Tsumiso.
20:08Yes, is it like this?
20:11Well, where should I go next?
20:14Well, I'm glad to hear that it's popular.
20:32The beauty of Japan that goes around in one hand for a beautiful moment.
20:38There was a beautiful culture inherited in Yamagata Prefecture.
