Learn the Art of Flower Arrangement at Ohara School of Ikebana
Ikebana, flower arrangement, is one of Japan’s most treasured art forms, a time-honored tradition that continues to be relevant even in today’s modern society. Beautifully arranged flowers and plants have permeated Japanese culture in a way that is seldom found in others. The Ohara School of Ikebana has played a major part in keeping the tradition alive, through its many schools in Japan, as well as its 59 chapters abroad, with over 300,000 members worldwide. The beauty of the Ohara School is not only in its floral arrangements, but its ability to share the culture of ikebana with the world. I visited the Ohara Center of Tokyo to try an ikebana class to learn more about this traditional art form.

Japan Foodie Souvenirs: 7 Souvenir Snacks from Chichibu, Recommended by Our Foreign Editors!
Chichibu, located in the northwestern region of Saitama Prefecture is a sightseeing destination that has been gaining popularity in recent years. Home to the whisky distillery for Ichiro's Malt and known as the stage for the live action film, "The Anthem of the Heart" and a pilgrimage site for anime enthusiasts because of the anime, "The Flower We Saw That Day", it's easy to see why it has become the focus of so many people from all demographics! Another major reason contributing to Chichibu's popularity among travelers is its relative close proximity to Tokyo. It only takes a reasonable two hours by train to reach Chichibu's gateway station, Seibu-Chichibu Station! Really then, there's very little not to like about Chichibu, with its abundance of nature and great-tasting food. Speaking of food, we're going to be featuring seven food souvenirs from Chichibu we think is among the best the region has to offer, so if you're going to Chichibu soon, this article is just right for you!
