Today I return to the fantastic journey into the fantastic improvised (though now sadly away) October 7, 2007 ...
After seeing the museum and trawled the decent and not too pedantic tourist shop inside and after eating the best udon in Japan I am immersed in a fantastic Japanese countryside in the district of Nasu 那 须, 栃 木 Tochigi prefecture, where the Japanese politicians Faccioni me laughing every 500 meters, from their well-ordered program of plastic on the sides of the road was not even advertising the rally ...
Suddenly, the proverbial Japanese thirst, it makes us stop in front of a shop in a little town. Should correspond to a versatile combination (the supermarket 24h), but the lights turned off and the lack of any ill-made dovetails with the merchandise on display and open to the public, I should say the shoji. The greyness of the small town I learn to be named Batou 马头 in village of Nakagawa 那 珂川 This brings out the figure of the matron Japanese idling arriving a little later, to sell tea and cola.
off again to make a few kilometers here and appearing in front of us:
Amazed by the beautiful building (really impressive, in its light wood) I did not realize that in a little while I admired my first collection of ūkio (see post "The floating world 1" and links to wikipedia Ukiyo-e)!
The museum is dedicated to Utagawa Hiroshige (or Ando Hiroshige), calling it " Nakagawa-machi Bato Hiroshige Museum of Art " (literally "of Bato Hiroshige Museum, Nakagawa City "fantasy that these Japanese right? fat guy named building or something seems bad?) construction of a Kengo Kuma, a famous architect who also exhibits at this time in Padua (who is with me to see , eh?).
In particular station number 44 of the old Japanese way of the Tokaido, the fishing village of Yokkaichi, the photo I made from a postcard I sent home, is something of an exception, 'full release, I assure you.
