Niigata

Today, I introduce Niigata.

The rice production of Niigata is the largest in Japan.
Since long long ago, Japanese people have had a staple diet of rice. And even now, rice is essential food for us to live.
The famous brand of rice "kosihikari" is made in Niigata and it is had the whole of Japan.
I also like it very much!
But in these days, more Japanese people tend to eat foreign food.
Specially, fast foods; for example hamburgers and french fries are very popular.
So the rice consumption in Japan is decreasing.
We should be proud of our own food culture and tell all over the world grateful of Japanese staple diet; rice!

Hiroshoma

Today, I'll introduce Hiroshima.

I think that the most famous place in Hiroshima is the Atomic Bomb Dome.
Its Japanese name is "genbaku Dome"
Japan is the only country that is damaged by Atomic Bomb all over the world.
So the Atomic Bomb Dome in Hiroshima is valuable building.
The Dome tell us misery of war. I have visited there with my parents when I was alittle boy.
Then, the terrigle view get me shock.
In Hiroshima and Nagasaki, even today, There are many people who suffer from illness caused by atomic-bomb radiation.
In the near future, there will be no people who have experienced the war.
The Atomic Bomb Dome will play a role of telling the next generation the misery of war.
