Osaka and Linking Up
Today’s uploaded photos are from my visit to Osaka, in the Kansai region of Japan. Osaka is a popular travel spot for several reasons, and much like anywhere else in Japan, Osaka has a very interesting historical background. There are lots of Buddhist temples, as well 大阪城（おおさかじょう：Osaka Jou) Osaka Castle, which is very well preserved and absolutely beautiful to look at. I Didn’t get to spend a lot of time in Osaka, but then again I’m nowhere near as crazy about the place as some people I know. Check out my pictures from Osaka (link here, as well as in the top banner under pictures).
Also, I’d like to mention that I am looking for others with interest in Japan that have blogs or sites to trade links with. Networking our sites not only increases the amount of traffic we can potentially receive, but also allows us to expand our knowledge and understand the different perspectives at which we all deal with learning the Japanese language and Japanese culture.
I’ve already established 3 link trades so far. These are great sites and I’d appreciate it if you have interest to go check them out:
Sanokame.com: A very informative fellow from Sweden who has some great stuff to say about Japanese entertainment, as well as design and technology in general.
NeilDuckett.com: A fellow ‘gaijin’ living in Tokyo, Japan with a rather extensive blog packed full of pictures, Japan employment information, and links to many other great Japanese weblogs.
DannyChoo.com: A huge online community for those interested in Japanese culture, anime, idols, and otaku related information.
Of course, all these links are in the side bar, and I’m hoping to see YOURS there soon as well.
Cheers.
