There are over 40 different prefectures in Japan and every area is famous for different things. This picture was done by someone on 2chan about what the various areas of Japan are nationally famous for. See how many you recognize. This website has a lot of the answers written in the comment section. Not sure about how China is portrayed in the painting, but it's interesting to see what the artist considers noteworthy about every area.
If you want to quiz your local knowledge, take this super addictive Japan prefecture quiz.
It helps you remember what different prefectures are famous for.
If you've been here long enough, you'll get quite a few right.
I'm making more of an effort to update this blog after having realized that some people really liked it and found it useful. I still get monthly comments from happy people who went to Watanabe Hair Salon in Harajuku and got Chie to style their hair. I still get tons of people commenting on a lot of my posts.
But mostly, I'm making an effort because of peer pressure from Vivian, who I adore, and Sarah, who I hope to meet sometime when Hokkaido gets warm and I can go there without dying. Thanks!
