SWE 176 Top 20 Travel Vocabulary Words

Hello! I went to Kyoto for sightseeing during May 17th - 19th.
It was one of the most beautiful season in Kyoto, especially green color of new leaves.
I am going to talk about our trip on Kyoto. 

On the first day at Kyoto, we went Heian Jingu and Shin-en, which is a traditional Japanese garden.  We can see some flowers like Shobu, Has, and Kouhone.  They are so beautiful.

After that, we enjoy Ochabana, which is a kind of flower arrangement in Japanese style.
Master gave us some tips for Ochabana.  That is Subtraction and triangle. To throw out the extras. 

Our trip goes on and on. I'll tell you the rest later.  Thank you so much.

新緑の５月　京都を旅行しました。
５月１７日から１９日の三日間の京都観光についてお話します。
今回は　第１日目
１０時　平安神宮に集合
平安神宮は平安遷都（へいあんせんと）1100年を記念して、明治28年に遷都（せんと）のおや神様である第50代桓武天皇（かんむてんのう）をご祭神（さいしん）として建てられました。
JR京都駅からバスで約３０分　　赤い大きな鳥居が目印です。
１０：３０　神苑（しんえん）
33,000㎡の広さの日本庭園。5月の見ごろは　菖蒲（しょうぶ）、蓮（はす）、コウホネの花です。

日本の華道と海外のフラワーアレンジメントの違いを知りました。
フラワーアレンジメントは、足し算（たしざん）で作るのに対して、日本の華道（かどう）は引き算（ひきざん）でいける。つまり、余分（よぶん）な　葉や枝を切って落とすのです。シンプルに！　形は三角（さんかく）にする。そうすれば、すがたよくお花が生けられると教えてもらいました。

私の京都旅行はまだまだつづきますが、つづきはまた今度！
