The first post

  In Japan, there are a lot of beautiful places and culture, but especially my city Okinawa, which located the most south place in Japan, is one of the most beautiful places in Japan. I’d like to talk about the city in this blog. Today, this is the first post, so I’m going to explain a little bit about my city.

 

  I think almost everyone already know Japan is the island country, and Okinawa is also island, but it’s very small and it’s far from Tokyo about 1,600km. I think Taiwan is more near than main land of Japan. I think location is very good because the summer time, there are a lot of beautiful beaches like Caribbean Sea, so you can enjoy many activities in the sea such as canoeing, surfing, snorkeling, and more and more interesting activities. The winter season, there is no snowing and the temperature is not too low just little bit windy, but it’s not a big problem. That’s why when I came to Toronto last march, I was very surprised because tempter is too low for me, so I felt too cold and the temperature made me feel very sad.

 Around 400 years ago, Okinawa was an independent country, so they have an own language and a culture. It’s very interesting. My grandparents still can speak the language, but if they speak it, all Japanese don’t understand what they said because the language was totally different between Japanese and Okinawan language. However, almost all young Okinawan people also don’t understand because of the Second World War anyway I will write about it later with more details.

  I love Okinawa very much because there are a lot of great places, great culture, beautiful beaches, interesting culture, history, and very kind people, so I want many people to know about my great city. After read this blog, if you want to go to Okinawa, I will be very happy.
