Day 2: What Should I know?

Have you ever been overseas? Do you know a lot about the country you're going to? Before you go overseas it is important that you learn a bit about the country you're visiting. Before I go to Japan I need to know the basics.

The capital city of Japan is Tokyo. From July the 31st this year Tokyo's population has grown a hep. 13.62 million people live in Tokyo today. January is the coldest month at 5°C but, is the most sunniest month. 

Tokyo is located in the northwestern shore of Tokyo Bay. Japanese is the most common language in Tokyo . 

If you ever go overseas make sure you know the basics.

Day 1: 日本=Japan

Want To learn about Japan? Well this blog post is just the right thing you need to read!

Japan hosted the 1964 Summer Olympic games in Tokyo and will again in 2020. They also hosted the 1972 and 1998 Winter Olympic Games in Sapporo and Nagano. In 2014 on the 10th of October it was the fiftieth anniversary since the 1964 Summer Olympics.

Japanese cuisine has become popular around the world. Some well-known dishes are sushi, sashimi and tempura. These foods are made with raw fish and some cooked prawns.

Japan sits along the “Pacific Ring of Fire”, so has many volcanoes and experiences many earthquakes. In 2011, an earthquake hit Japan and created a tsunami which resulted in much devastation. It was a Friday afternoon a disaster struck as a massive 8.9 magnitude earthquake generated a wall of water that surged over the east coast of the island nation, sweeping many to their deaths. 

Day 1: こんにちは=Kon'nichiwa

Hello or should I say Kon'nichiwa (こんにちは )!

In the Holidays' I'll be learning abut Japan and pretending I'm travelling in Japan, and you can join me! Japan is a country in the Pacific ocean made up of 6,852 islands. The four largest islands are called: Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku. Japan is located to the east of Russia, China and Korea.

The population in Japan is unreal... just about 127.1 million people are living there. There are four main cities. These cities are Kyoto, Hiroshima, Sendai and Osaka. Tokyo is the capital city of Japan. The *climate in Japan is mostly temperate however, it does *vary from north to south with colder temperatures (including snow) found in the north.

Japan is knowen for Sumo wrestling, baseball, football (soccer), judo, karate and kendo. Japan has 4 national lcons: 1. The cherry blossom tree, 2. The koi fish, 3. The red-crowned crane (bird), 4. The lychee fruit.

I choose Japan as my country because I've heard a lot of urben legends, I love there Cherry Blossom tree's and I am a third Asian.

*Climate means temperature
*Vary means to change or alter
