Hiroko Furukawa on Instagram: "Fukusaki Town in Hyogo Prefecture is dotted with many yokai and is a popular spot for photography.

This town is the birthplace of Kunio Yanagida, who is considered the father of Japanese folklore.

The entire town honors his achievements and makes yokai culture a pillar of local development.

It was great fun to ride around the town on a bicycle with a yokai map in hand!

A yokai suddenly appears out of the pond!

You can also do a stamp rally if you buy a mount at the tourist center.

Figures of yokai that have been photographed in the town are also on display.

All of them are cute, so please come here and take a look!

If you want to experience Japanese yokai culture, go to Fukusaki Town.

It is about an hour and a half train ride from Osaka Station!

IPA 2017 Winner / Tancho - Japanese crane / SENSEGRAPHIA FINE ART / Eriko Kaniwa

Kushiro, Hokkaido. The vision of Japanese cranes stretching their wings in a field of snow, the red on the crowns of their heads reinforcing the thought of them as a manifestation of Japan, is breathtakingly beautiful. In the bitter -20°C cold of early morning, they stand silent and still on the river, filling the depths of my heart with the beautiful, fleeting strength of life. How much of this wildness do we humans have left? Shutting myself up alone in my workroom to finish a project, I…

Cinema Of The World on Instagram: "Dreams (1990) is an anthology film of eight vignettes written and directed by Akira Kurosawa. The film tells the story in a series of dreams of the lives of people who get intertwined with each other, as they experience strange events related to certain weather conditions.

The film was inspired by actual recurring dreams that Kurosawa said he had repeatedly. Dreams is both a showcase for its maker’s artistry at its most unbridled and a deeply personal lament for a world at the mercy of human ignorance.

The film’s deep reliance on Japanese folklore and symbolism can feel challenging for some audiences. Its story unfolds visually, using colors and landscapes more than dialogue, which makes it feel like a meditative piece of art.
