While you are in Japan, of course you will
have to visit popular landmarks such as Mt Fuji, temples in Kyoto, Miyajima… Those places
are a must; but your travel is not restricted to the touristic spots, there are
plenty of surprising things in Japan, everywhere, you just need to look around
you.
The staff of Rediscover Japan lives
around Osaka, so we would like to show you some examples of interesting things
that we found near Osaka.

| High-school baseball tournament in Koshien. |
If you are in Kansai now, or within Sunday August
14th, why don’t you go to see a baseball game at Koshien. They are
now holding the National high-school baseball tournament. This tournament is
one of the most popular even in Japan. Games are on the air on two different
national channels; great atmosphere; 40,000 people in the stadium everyday for 2 weeks…and some seats are free !

| Square watermelon |
If you like fruits, you might be surprised
by the price of fruits in Japan. To grow a fruit in Japan is more or less an
Art. How about this square watermelon, for 130 US Dollars!! I hope they
guarantee the taste for this price.

| Nice bicycle ! |
This bicycle is probably not easy to ride, but
looks great. If you cannot afford a real Harley-Davidson this might be a good
alternative...
