「俳句で巡る四季：季語を通して自然を楽しむ」

Momo

Hello! A blogger who conveys the charms of Japan to the world、モモです！今日は私の大好きな趣味、俳句についてお話ししようと思います。「俳句/haiku」は、5・7・5の17音からなる短い詩で、自然や季節の変化、人々の感情を表現することが特徴です。その中でも特に大切なのが「季語/kigo」という言葉。季語は、その詩がどの季節に詠まれたのかを示す言葉で、俳句を読む上で欠かせない要素となっています。季語は日本の四季を反映していて、どの季節にも特徴的な言葉がたくさんあります。Today is、春・夏・秋・冬それぞれの季節にちなんだ季語をいくつかご紹介したいと思います。Well then、さっそく始めましょう！ 1. 春の季語 ・初桜（はつざくら/hatuzakura）春の訪れを感じさせる最初の桜の花。初桜は、春の始まりを象徴する花として、非常に重要な季語です。寒さを乗り越えて、最初に咲く桜の花は、新たな命が芽吹く瞬間を感じさせてくれます。・春雨（はるさめ/harusame）春に降る柔らかな雨、春雨も季語としてよく使われます。春雨はしっとりとした優しいイメージを与え、暖かさとともに心地よい季節の訪れを感じさせてくれます。・鶯笛（うぐいすぶえ/uguisubue）春にさえずる鶯の鳴き声を「鶯笛」と呼びます。鶯の鳴き声は、春を告げるメロディとして、古くから俳句に詠まれています。その美しいさえずりは、春の風物詩として親しまれています。 2. 夏の季語 ・蛍（ほたる/hotaru）夏の夜を彩る蛍の光。暗闇の中でぽっと光る蛍は、幻想的で儚い存在です。夏の風物詩として多くの俳句に登場します。・蝉（せみ/semi）夏の昼間に聞こえる蝉の鳴き声も夏の風物詩のひとつ。蝉の鳴き声は、日本の夏の暑さを象徴する音として、暑い夏を思い起こさせます。・花火（はなび/hanabi）夏の夜空に広がる花火は、夏の夜の風物詩です。華やかで、儚い光の瞬間が、夏の短い期間を美しく表現しています。 3. 秋の季語 ・紅葉（こうよう/kouyou）秋に木々が色づく紅葉は、日本の秋の風物詩として知られています。赤や黄色に染まる葉が、秋の深まりを感じさせてくれます。・月見（つきみ/tukimi）秋の夜、満月を眺めながら楽しむ月見。月見は秋の風物詩で、秋の夜の静けさと美しさを表現するのにぴったりなテーマです。・栗（くり/kuri）秋に収穫される栗も秋の季語です。栗を使ったお菓子や料理は、秋の味覚として日本の家庭で親しまれています。 4. 冬の季語 ・雪晴（ゆきばれ/yukibare）雪が降った後の晴れた空を「雪晴」と呼びます。雪に覆われた景色が、澄み切った空とともに美しく輝く様子は、冬ならではの風景です。静かな雪景色の後に広がる晴れやかな空が、心に温かさをもたらしてくれます。・霜の花（しものはな/simonohana）冬の寒い朝、霜が花のように枝や草に付き、まるで花が咲いたかのような美しい光景が広がります。霜の花は、寒さの中にも美しさを見出す日本の冬の風物詩です。・初雪（はつゆき/hatuyuki）冬の最初の雪、初雪も美しい季語です。初雪が降ると、冬が始まったことを実感する瞬間として、多くの俳句に登場します。 5. さいごに 季語はその季節の特徴を短い言葉で表現しており、俳句を深く味わうためには欠かせない存在です。季語を通して、四季折々の自然や風景を感じ、心が豊かになるような気がします。lastly、私が最近読んだ俳句を一つ紹介しますね。 「春の風　桜吹雪に　揺れるかな」/「harunokaze　sakurahubukini　yurerukana」 春風に舞い散る桜の花びらが、風に揺れている情景を描いた一篇です。桜の花が散る瞬間の儚さと、春風の心地よさが感じられて、とても美しいなと思いました。

古今和歌集 巻一：春上 1～10首の魅力 『古今和歌集』巻一「春上」には、日本の春の訪れを繊細に表現した和歌が並びます。ここでは1～10首の和歌を紹介し、それぞれの魅力や翻訳では伝わらない日本語の美しさを解説します。 　第１首　在原元方（ありわらのもとかた） 和歌:　年のうちに　　春は来にけり　ひととせを　　こそとやいはむ　　ことしとやいはむローマ字読み:Toshi no uchi ni　haru wa kinikeri　Hitotose o　koso to ya iwamu　kotoshi to ya iwamu 意味:年の途中に春が来てしまった。この一年を去年と呼ぶべきか、それとも今年と呼ぶべきか迷ってしまう。background:正月を迎えた際の新年の感覚と、日本の旧暦での「春の始まり」を結びつけた和歌です。暦の移ろいと春の到来の新鮮さが表現されています。Good things that cannot be conveyed in translation:「去年」「今年」といった時間概念の揺れや、音の響きが織りなす韻律の美しさは、日本語の特性が存分に活かされています。 　第２首　紀貫之（きのつらゆき） 和歌:　袖ひちて　　むすびし水の　　こほれるを　　春立つけふの　　　風や解くらむローマ字読み:Sode hichite　musubishi mizu no　kooreru o　Haru tatsu kyou no　kaze ya tokuramu 意味:袖を濡らして掬った水が凍っている。それを今日立つ春の風が解かしてくれるのだろうか。background:冬から春への移行期を、具体的な「凍った水」というイメージで描写しています。自然の移ろいを繊細に感じ取る日本人の感性が現れています。Good things that cannot be conveyed in translation:「袖ひちて」の具体性や、「風が解かす」という擬人化表現が、感情と自然を密接に結びつけています。 　第３首　二条の后（にじょうのきさき） 和歌:　雪の内に　　　春は来にけり　　鶯の　　　　凍れる涙　　　今や解くらむローマ字読み:Yuki no uchi ni　haru wa kinikeri　uguisu no　Kooreru namida　ima ya tokuramu 意味:雪の中に春が来た。鶯の凍った涙も、今まさに解けようとしているのだろうか。background:雪と鶯の対比を通じて、冬から春への変化を象徴的に描いています。Good things that cannot be conveyed in translation:「鶯の涙」という表現が、日本語ならではの繊細な感覚を象徴しています。 　第４首　読人不知（よみびとしらず） 和歌:　梅が枝に　来ゐる鶯　　　春かけて　　鳴けども今だ　　　雪は降りつつローマ字読み:Umegae ni　kiiru uguisu　haru kakete　Nake domo imada　yuki wa furitsutsu 意味:梅の枝に止まる鶯が春を告げて鳴いているが、まだ雪が降り続いている。background:梅と鶯という春の象徴的な取り合わせに、冬の雪を加えた対比的な構図が特徴です。Good things that cannot be conveyed in translation:「春かけて鳴けども」という継続性の表現が、春の到来の儚さを際立たせます。素性法師（そせいほうし） 　第５首　読人不知（よみびとしらず） 和歌:　春たてば　　花とや見らむ　　　白雪の　　　かかれる枝に　　　鶯そ鳴くローマ字読み:Haru...

思わず訪れたくなる！日本のサスティナブルツーリズムの魅力と体験談

世界中で注目を集める『サスティナブルツーリズム』。this is、観光地の自然環境や文化を守りながら、地域社会に貢献する観光の形です。The background is、気候変動や環境破壊が進む中で、観光による負担を軽減しつつ持続可能な発展を目指すという目的があります。for example、観光客が増えすぎることで地域資源が枯渇したり、住民の生活に悪影響が出る「オーバーツーリズム」の問題が世界的に深刻な事態となっています。 サスティナブルツーリズムは、このような課題を解決しながら旅行者に豊かな体験を提供するもの。多くの旅行者が「旅を通じて地球に優しくありたい」と考えるようになり、関心が高まっています。In this article、私「ペンシルケース」が実際に体験した日本のサスティナブルツーリズムの素晴らしい実例をご紹介します！ 白川村——世界遺産を未来へつなぐレスポンブル・ツーリズム 岐阜県の白川村は、1995年12月にユネスコの世界遺産に認定された、合掌造りの家々が立ち並ぶ美しい村です。When I first visited、静寂さと歴史的な雰囲気に圧倒されました。but、人気観光地ゆえに、訪れる観光客の混雑やマナー問題は深刻です。 そこで村では、観光客に文化や生活を尊重する行動を促すマナー啓発や、混雑予想カレンダーを提供しています。特に混雑予想カレンダーを活用し、訪問者が事前にピーク時間を避けることで、快適な観光体験ができるよう配慮されています。Also、一部の日程では入場制限を設けることで、観光客の集中を分散させ、住民の生活環境を守る工夫がなされています。moreover、予約制やチケット制を導入することで、計画的な観光を促進し、よりスムーズで快適な観光体験を提供する取り組みも進められています。それによって混雑のピークを避けることで観光客の満足度を高めつつ、住民の日常生活への影響を最小限に抑える工夫がされています。 私が白川村で印象に残ったのは、地元の方々の温かいもてなしと、観光地としての責任感でした。地元ガイドさんから聞いた「観光で村が救われたけど、守る努力も必要なんです」という言葉は心に響きました。 なぜ人気？ みなかみ町——自然と共生する冒険 群馬県のみなかみ町は、アウトドア好きにはたまらない場所です。ラフティングやハイキングを楽しみながら、自然環境の保護意識を高める仕組みが整っています。 Also、温泉地としても知られ、地元の源泉を活用したエコフレンドリーな温泉施設が多く存在します。観光客は、自然に優しい取り組みを実践する宿泊施設に滞在しながら、地元の食材を使った郷土料理を味わうこともできます。moreover、伝統工芸や農業体験を通じて、地域文化に触れる機会も提供されています。こうした多面的なサスティナブルツーリズムの取り組みが、みなかみ町の魅力をさらに引き立てています。 私もラフティングに挑戦し、大自然の迫力を肌で感じました。地元のガイドさんが「川の清流を守るためにゴミを持ち帰ることの重要性」や「観光が環境保全にどう繋がるのか」を話してくれました。その熱意が観光の価値を深めてくれます。 なぜ人気？ 上勝町——ごみゼロのまちが魅せる未来 徳島県の上勝町は、2003年にゼロ・ウェイストを掲げている日本初の自治体です。When you visit、リサイクルステーションや地元産素材を活用したカフェなど、循環型社会の最先端を体験できます。 私もここでリサイクル体験をし、ゴミを細かく分別するプロセスや地域住民の努力を直接学びました。観光客がリサイクルに参加できる仕組みは、自分自身の生活にも役立つ学びが多いです。「観光が地域の持続可能性に貢献できる」という新しい視点を学んだ貴重な時間でした。 なぜ人気？ 釜石市——生きた博物館を歩く 岩手県の釜石市は、市全体を“オープンフィールドミュージアム”として活用するユニークな取り組みを行っています。2018年には日本初の「世界の持続可能な観光地100選」に選出され、その後も連続して選ばれています。Also、2019年には「グリーン・デスティネーションズ・アワード」のブロンズ賞を受賞し、2022年にはシルバー賞を獲得するなど、国際的にも評価を受けています。 釜石市には震災からの復興をテーマに、地域の自然や文化を体験できるプログラムが豊富です。for example、被災地ガイドツアーでは、現地の住民が震災時の経験や復興の歩みを直接語ってくれます。Also、漁業体験プログラムでは地元の漁師とともに新鮮な海産物を収穫し、その場で味わうこともできます。これらのプログラムを通じて、観光客は復興への努力を肌で感じ、地域の生活と深く関わることができます。 When I visited、地元の漁師さんから「津波で全てを失ったけれど、復興を支えてくれる観光客が私たちの希望です」と語られたことが印象的でした。復興の歩みを体験できる観光プログラムや、地元の新鮮な海産物を楽しむ機会もあり、観光客として深いつながりを感じました。 なぜ人気？ 美瑛町——自然と農業の調和を楽しむ 北海道の美瑛町は、どこまでも続く丘陵とカラフルな花畑で有名です。but、その美しい景観の裏には、持続可能な農業への努力があります。2023年4月には「美瑛町持続可能な観光目的地実現条例」を施行し、観光と環境保全の両立を目指した取り組みを強化しています。Also、同年にはUNWTO（国連世界観光機関）から「ベスト・ツーリズム・ビレッジ」に認定され、世界的にも持続可能な観光地として評価されました。 私も農業体験に参加し、地元の農家さんから「農薬を抑えた環境配慮型の農業」や「景観保全の重要性」について直接学びました。Also、地元の新鮮な食材を使った料理は格別で、農業と観光がどのように結びついているかを実感しました。 なぜ人気？ コメントであなたの意見を聞かせてください！ この記事を読んで、どの観光地に興味を持ちましたか？例えば、「釜石市の漁業体験プログラムに参加してみたい」や「美瑛町で農業体験をしてみたい」など、具体的に教えていただけると嬉しいです！また、実際に訪れたことがある方は、その体験や印象をぜひシェアしてください。サスティナブルツーリズムを通じて感じたことや、他のおすすめの観光地も教えていただけると大変参考になります！ この記事をブックマークして、お友達にもシェアしてくださいね。日本の美しい観光地を未来へつなぐため、一緒に行動を始めましょう！

京都の魔法に包まれる！あなたも行きたくなる伝統祭り4選

Hello、ペンシルケースです！ 京都と聞いて思い浮かべるのは、古き良き街並みや豊かな歴史ではありませんか？でも、ちょっと待ってください！その魅力を最大限に味わうなら、実は「お祭り」という魔法の扉を開ける必要があるんです。This time、海外からも注目される京都の4つの伝統祭りをご紹介します！ この記事を読み終わるころには、次の京都旅行の計画が立てられるかもしれません。Well then、行きましょう！ 葵祭（5月15日） 場所：上賀茂神社・下鴨神社 葵祭は、なんと1500年以上の歴史を誇る京都の伝統的なお祭りです。平安装束を身にまとった行列が京都御所から下鴨神社、上賀茂神社まで練り歩く光景は、まるでタイムトリップしたような気分にさせてくれます。 私が初めて葵祭を訪れ体験したときのことです。早朝から並んで見学スポットを確保し、平安装束を着た行列が目の前を通る瞬間を待っていました。What was particularly impressive was、行列を先導する牛車（ぎっしゃ）の優雅な動きと、それに続く人々の整然とした歩み。行列の参加者一人ひとりが、まるで平安時代から来たかのような佇まいで、その光景に胸が熱くなりました。 Also、地元の方々が行列の進行を静かに見守りながらも、観光客には温かく案内をしてくれる姿も心に残っています。行列を待つ間、隣にいた地元の方から葵祭の由来や、衣装にまつわる興味深い話を聞けたのも特別な体験でした。 なぜ外国人に人気なのか？ 海外の方からすると、This festival is”日本の歴史を目で見る”という感覚を味わえる貴重な機会です。myself、現地で行列を目の当たりにしたとき、その整然とした美しさに息を飲みました。衣装の細かい刺繍や色彩の美しさに圧倒されると同時に、行列を引っ張る牛車（ぎっしゃ）の優雅な動きには特に感動しました。 Also、地元の方々が代々受け継いできたこの伝統を、現代に移り変わっても誇りを持って続けている姿に心を打たれました。カメラ好きや歴史ファンにとって、これは絶対に外せないイベントです。 祇園祭（7月1日～31日） 場所：八坂神社・各山鉾町 祇園祭は、疫病を鎮めるために始まった日本最大級の祭り。7月の1ヶ月間にわたって行われ、特に山鉾巡行や宵山は見逃せません。 なぜ外国人に人気なのか？ この祭りのハイライトは山鉾の美しさ！それぞれの山鉾（やまぼこ）は動く美術館と呼ばれるほど精巧な装飾が施されています。山鉾の中には、見事な金箔が施された装飾や、何百年もの歴史を持つ刺繍が輝く布で覆われたものもあります。for example、船の形を模した”船鉾”（ふねほこ）や、鳥居のモチーフを取り入れた”鶏鉾”（にわとりほこ）など、それぞれが独自のテーマを持ち、見る人を飽きさせません。 自身の体験談ですが、私も巡行を間近で見たとき、その大迫力に圧倒されました。especially、夜の宵山では、提灯に照らされた山鉾が幻想的な雰囲気を醸し出していて、まるで映画のワンシーンにいるような気分でした。山鉾の細部を見て歩くだけでも、伝統工芸の素晴らしさに触れることができるのも魅力の一つです。 Also、山鉾ごとに異なるテーマや物語が込められており、それを知ることで観覧がさらに面白くなります。地元の職人技術や歴史的な背景について、ボランティアガイドから直接話を聞けたのも貴重な体験でした。 祭りの後には、地元の露店で食べた焼き鳥やかき氷の味がまた格別！ぜひ、あなたも体験してみてください。 時代祭（10月22日） 場所：京都御所・平安神宮 時代祭は、明治時代に平安遷都1100年を記念して1895年に始まったお祭りです。but、その意義は深く、日本の歴史を生き生きと体験できる貴重な機会を提供してくれます。このお祭りのハイライトは、平安時代から明治時代までの各時代の衣装を忠実に再現した壮大な行列です。 歴史的背景と意義 時代祭は、京都がかつて日本の首都であったことを讃えるとともに、歴史の中で培われた文化を次世代に伝えるという使命を担っています。行列に登場する衣装や小道具は、細部にまでこだわっており、京都の伝統工芸の技術が随所に感じられます。for example、平安時代の貴族の装束に施された繊細な刺繍や、戦国時代の武士が纏う鎧兜の精巧さは圧巻です。 体験談になりますが、私がこの祭りを初めて訪れた際、地元の方々から直接聞いた話が忘れられません。I was especially impressed by、祭りの準備に数ヶ月を費やすという地域コミュニティの結束力。その努力が、この壮大な行列を可能にしているのだと知り、深い敬意を抱きました。 祭りの後には、平安神宮の静寂な境内を訪れ、時代祭が持つ「歴史を継承する」という深い意義に思いを馳せるのもおすすめです。京都の歴史に新たな視点を加えたい方には、ぜひ訪れてほしいお祭りです。 なぜ外国人に人気なのか？ 歴史の教科書から飛び出してきたかのような衣装の数々。平安時代から明治時代までの日本史を旅するような気分を味わえます。 私がこの祭りを見たとき、特に印象的だったのは行列を作る地元の人々の情熱です。衣装や小道具の細部まで再現されており、それぞれの時代背景を感じさせる工夫が随所に見られました。for example、鎧兜を身につけた武士の堂々とした歩き方や、宮中装束を身につけた女性の優雅な所作は目を見張るものでした。 祭りが終わった後、地元の方々と歴史について語り合ったのも良い思い出です。こうした交流が、旅をさらに豊かにしてくれるのだと感じました。 五山送り火（8月16日） 場所：京都市内の五山（大文字山など） お盆の精霊を送り出すための行事で、夜空に浮かぶ巨大な火文字は言葉にできないほど美しいです。 体験談ですが、私が五山送り火を初めて見たときのことを鮮明に覚えています。山に点火されるその瞬間、周囲が一斉に静まり返り、夜空に「大」の文字が浮かび上がる光景に息を呑みました。その場にいた全員が同じ感動を共有しているのが伝わり、言葉を交わさずとも不思議な一体感を感じたのです。 What was particularly impressive was、火文字が夜空を照らしながらゆっくりと燃え続ける様子。まるで先祖の魂が見守ってくれているような感覚を覚えました。送り火が終わった後も、余韻に浸りながら近くのお寺を散策し、地元の方々と静かに交流を深めたことが心に残っています。 なぜ外国人に人気なのか？ このイベントの魅力はシンプルながらも心に響くその光景にあります。その光景には、送り火が持つスピリチュアル、そして日本独特の静寂さと信心深さは、他のどんな祭りにもない特別な魅力を持っています。私が五山送り火を見たとき、山に点火される瞬間、観客全員が静まり返り、息をのむような感動を共有しました。especially、暗闇の中に浮かぶ「大」の文字が視界に広がる瞬間は忘れられません。 送り火の後には、地元の方々が提案してくれたお寺の参拝ルートをたどり、さらに深い京都の文化を感じることができました。like this、ただ眺めるだけでなく、地元の人々とのつながりを作る機会にもなる、素晴らしい行事だと感じます。 コメント欄にぜひご感想を！ あなたはどの京都のお祭りに一番行きたくなりましたか？ また、実際に訪れたことがある方はその体験もぜひシェアしてください！ 私たちのブログをブックマークして、次の京都旅行の参考にしていただけると嬉しいです。Also、この記事をシェアして京都の魅力を広めるお手伝いをしていただけると、とても励みになります。 京都の魅力を一緒に語りましょう。 ペンシルケースでした！

日本のエコツーリズムで自然と文化を体験しよう！Recommended sightseeing route

日本のエコツーリズムで自然と文化を体験しよう！

pencil case

Nagano Makoto

This time、Nagano Makoto, a Japanese person、We will explore the charm of foreigners while also delving into its appeal! Why is Noh popular with foreigners? Noh is、It is a performing art with a mysterious and fantastic worldview。Its origins date back to the 14th century.、It is also registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage。 The first time I saw Noh was at the Kongo Noh Theater in Kyoto。 In the silence、The sight of Shite (the main character) dancing slowly、I felt like time had stopped。Live music from a musical instrument called Hayashi resonates with、Every single act of the performer wearing a Noh mask、I will not let go of the viewers。 especially、The charm of Noh lies in its "interval".。A performance that cherishes margins and silence、Inspires the audience's imagination、You can feel like you're drawn into a story on stage。 Foreign friends too、"It was like I was in a dream" "It was a minimalist production though、I was moved by the feeling that I could directly convey my emotions."。Even if you don't understand Japanese、What you can feel with visuals and music、It's amazing about Noh。 Also、Noh is also a comprehensive art that combines poetry, dance, music and art.。Beautiful Noh costumes and unique dance、Stories that give off a deep spirituality、It has influenced theater people and artists all over the world.。 for example、Director George Lucas of Star Wars、It is said that he was inspired by the Noh performances and actions.。 moreover、Many Noh performances include "ghosts" and "gods."、Packed with fantastic elements。This is、It is very appealing to foreigners interested in traditional Japanese culture.。 Why is Kyogen popular with foreigners? Kyogen is、It is a traditional Japanese performing arts that is a match with Noh.、While Noh depicts a fantastic world、Kyogen is a comedy based on humorous everyday events.。Therefore、More friendly than Noh、It has the charm of laughing and enjoying even for first-time audiences。 In the performance I saw, "Bowshibari"、A man who loves alcohol is tied up by his master、Still, it was depicted as he was desperate to drink。The audience was filled with laughter、The foreign tourists next to me were also laughing out loud.。 Even if you don't understand the words、The great charm of Kyogen is that it can be enjoyed just by the performer's gestures and expressions.。In particular, it is popular in France as it is related to "Le Theatre de Lovesulde" (absurd theater).、Many theatres are interested。 Also、Kyogen is a simple story、It is packed with humor that captures the true essence of humanity。Because it depicts universal themes that can be relatable across countries and cultures.、It's easy to understand for foreigners too.。 My Italian friend said, "The movements and tempo of Kyogen are、There's something that's similar to our comedy dramas! "He spoke excitedly.。 actually、Kyogen has many similarities with European theater.、It is being performed more and more at overseas theater festivals.。 moreover、Kyogen has also been increasingly being made with modern elements.、It continues to evolve with classic performances。this is、This is one of the points that brings a fresh surprise to foreign audiences as well.。 lastly：Noh and Kyogen、Which one are you interested in? Noh is mysterious and fantastic、Kyogen is humorous and friendly。Both are essential for deeper understanding of traditional Japanese culture.。 If you haven't seen it yet、Please try it out once! When traveling to Japan、We also recommend checking out the performances at Noh Theaters in Kyoto or Tokyo。 Have you ever seen Noh or Kyogen?

Kotatsu (kotatsu)、This is a traditional heating furniture created to make Japan's winter comfortable。A heat source is installed under a low wooden table.、A thick futon hung over it locks in heat、Warm people sitting。The mechanism is、It removes the cold as if it envelops the entire body。 The reason for its popularity is、It's not just a heating appliance、Family and friends gather naturally、It is about creating a "bond place" where you can share time together。 Kotatsu mechanism Kotatsu is、It consists of the following elements： table：A low wooden table is the basic。The top plate is removable、Food and work、It also works as a place for gathering。 Heat source：In the past, we used charcoal and charcoal.、In modern times, electric heaters are the most common.。 Kotatsu Futon：A thick futon locks in heat。Recently、Many futons with high design quality、There's fun to choose according to your interior。 Tracing the history of kotatsu The origin of kotatsu dates back to the Muromachi period (14th century).。At that time、The basic method was to put a futon over the hearth to keep warm.。after that、The "horigotatsu" that allows you to dig into the floor and stretch your legs is developed.。It became popular among ordinary households during the Meiji period.、Since the Showa era、The current mainstream "Okigotatsu" has appeared。 Kotatsu has evolved with the times。Electricity is now the norm、Models with improved energy-saving performance、More and more kotatsu with modern designs。Kotatsu is、This is a unique Japanese furniture created by the fusion of tradition and modern technology.。 Types of kotatsu:、There are two types:。 Placed kotatsu：Lightweight type for installation on the floor。Easy to move、Most popular in ordinary households。 Sunflower：Fixed type with a deep dive into the floor。The appeal is that it is comfortable to sit with your legs stretched out、Because installation is time consuming、It is often used in ryokans and specific homes.。 Changes in the kotatsu culture in modern times Kotatsu is not just a heating device、Family and friends gather naturally、It is a place of bonds where you can share heartwarming time。Especially winter days、I ate mandarin oranges around the kotatsu、The sight of watching TV、It is a tradition that symbolizes Japan's winter。 But in recent years、Due to the evolution of heating equipment and lifestyle changes、Fewer households using kotatsu。on the other hand、Increased attention overseas、Japan's "kotatsu culture" is being re-evaluated in a new way。Hybrid furniture that combines kotatsu and sofa、Energy-saving models etc.、Kotatsus are appearing one after another to suit modern needs.。 Memories of me and kotatsu in Hokkaido where I live、Due to the excellent heating equipment for cold climates、Few households use kotatsu。but、Kotatsu was a winter staple item in my hometown of Kyushu.。A cold night、The whole family surrounds the kotatsu、We laugh while enjoying a hot meal、That kind of time、It's still deeply engraved in my heart。 Summary Kotatsu、Not only does it warm your body、Connecting people、It's a special thing that warms your heart。In that small space、It has the power to turn time with family and friends into something special。 This winter、Why not try incorporating kotatsu? In a warm kotatsu、Experience the warmth of Japanese culture、Have a special moment。The smiles and conversations that arise within the kotatsu、It's sure to make a wonderful winter memory。
