After visiting the Kyoto Garden in Holland Park I wandered about the rest of the Park to look for some signs of spring.
The main part of the Park has some formal gardens. Do you know the concept of formal garden means the garden is created in symmetrical patterns? These flowerbeds are placed totally symmetrically so it is a very typical formal garden.
Spring is here! The Camellia in my garden finally started to flower. (#^^#)
Have a great weekend! 😉
I wandered into a little wonderland called ‘the Gingerbread City’.
It was a miniature town made of many Gingerbread Houses by different designers and architects.
They were constructed with all sorts of sweets and candies.
The Entrance Tower standing tall skyward was a very modern design when it was built
This is our secretly famous Town Hall. How is it famous? Because its Art Deco interior has not been touched since it was built and it had been used for filming numerous films and TV dramas. It had been behind closed doors to the public for many years until now and we had a chance to see (and take pictures) recently.
I can almost hear the Birds singing
I jumped. Haven’t found a good object or interesting space to shoot for ‘Mystery’ on Day 10 yet. But I found this marvellously colourful piece of Art yesterday. This is a quite big piece. Love it. I want to have this on my white wall.
They look delicious, but you cannot eat them?!
This is the last post on the Report of my visit to Japan. It is also supposed to be the post for Day 4 (yes, I am a little bit behind) of the ‘Blogging101’ so I am adding an element I haven’t done yet.
We Japanese say “Eat food with our eyes”. As well as being tasty Food has to be colourful & beautiful.
Looks delicious but not edible
You might know there is a unique Industry in Food Business in Japan. It is Food Model making for window displays. In my childhood they were everywhere. Almost all restaurants had them at their entrance. The purpose is simple. They show what the foods of the restaurant look like, the kind of ingredients the dishes have and most importantly they are there for attracting customers!
