you will find a collored map of Japan here
Green part of the map is Tohoku region where I went today.
The place where I went last Sunday to picking cherry tour was
Nagano prifecture in Koshin-etsu region colloerd by orange.
Mainly Japan are devided into nine parts including Ryukyu island.
Each region has speciallities or sometime, dialogs which even
I Japanese can't understand.
There is a myth from ancient time,it is even before
we were influenced by Budddism from China.
The region on this story is Kyushu region
collored in yellow.
There was a god who control the Sun in the world
She was called "Amaterasu ookami"
Oneday she got angry with something and hide herself
in a rock hole.
To get her out from there, other gods pretended to be
enjoying to sing or dance. They thought Amaterasu
must feel to join it and come outside from rock holes.
when Amaterasu step out,
Other gods catched her not to go back to hole
and finally Sunshine came back to the world.
check the details about Japanese Region.
