Japanese Culture

There are some unique cultures in Japan. I tell you something that is important to Japanese culture from them, Haiku, Sushi, Mt.Fuji.
Haiku has some features.
First, Haiku is a Japanese poem in seventeen syllables having a 5-7-5 syllabic form. It is thought that it is a very good rhythm.
Second, most haiku has a word that is called "Kigo". Kigo is a word that symbolically indicates season. It is assumed that it is preferable that one is sure to be included in haiku.
Third, in the haiku there must be one "Kire" without exeption. "Kire" is the one to sever the flow of the phrase. It is considered that Kire is important. So if a certain Haiku doesn’t have a Kire, it is not viewed as a Haiku.
Haiku is actively written in the English-soeaking countries , and not the English-speaking countries , in Sweden, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Croatia, Slovene, Serb, and Bulgaria, Romania, Russia, China, Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia, Brazil, India, and Bangladesh , it is created. Today, the haiku is widely received and created100 in many foreign countries.

Sushi is Japanese food that combined rinegared rice with the seafood. Today, sushi shaped by hand is representative of sushi. Others, there are pressed sushi, inarizushi which flavored boiled rice wrapped in fried bean curd, fermented sushi and so on.
In these past few years, especially in conveyor belt sushi bars and foreign country sushi restaurants, such as the mini hamburger steaks, pountry, avocadoes, and fantastic idea has increased if it sees from a past sushi. It is very delicious, too. So it is very popular in not only the country but also foreign countries.

Mt.Fuji is higher any other mountain in Japan. Mt.Fuji is in the prefectural boundary in Shizuoka and Yamanashi. When it is seen from a long distance, it looks beautiful. It is widely known as a symbol of Japan in not only the country but also foreign country.
