Distant Japan
Recently copied pictures came across a photo from a trip and decided to share experiences and photos of my trip to the country of the rising sun - Japan. Will be a lot of photos and some bukovok. Ask not break, the end marked.
I'll start from the beginning. The trip took place in 2010 in September. The residence time of 14 days.
In fact, it was a business trip, not a tourist trip, but thanks to the hospitality of the brothers on reason, and given the fact that during our visit there was a holiday, it was possible to read a bit of the surrounding area of Tokyo and relax.

I'll start in order. The route as a whole is this: Magnitogorsk, Yekaterinburg, Irkutsk-Beijing-Tokyo and back in reverse order. In Irkutsk is the company through which the trip and realized. Arrived in Irkutsk (also very hospitable comrades). If one of them is sitting on Yap and I know them a huge hello. In Irkutsk, was several times. Interesting city, there is something to see, but most impressed Baikal and of course cisco. Smoked cisco simply delicious. In Irkutsk first time I tried the same dish called poses. Has anyone tried, he will confirm that this is really delicious. Originally made from red deer meat. Cool to see on the way to Lake Baikal banners restaurants and cafes "Hot posture." Photo banners unfortunately was not there.
Another Baikal
And yet
In the city did not go. China was a separate trip if inspiration will write a separate post. 5 hours walking around the airport and the surrounding area. In Tokyo, arrived at 14 pm local time. Appeared very pleased with Chinese airlines. New Airbus, pleasant flight attendants. A little pumped powered tolko.Novy international terminal at the airport in Tokyo launched 3 weeks after our departure. We arrived in the old one. In Japan, we have 10 to 24 September and during that time was the heat of 30-35 degrees, and only in one day was a little rain.
No photos from the plane upon landing, but catches the eye, for a piece of land that they have conducted a relentless struggle with the ocean. All shores are perfectly defined boundaries that simply paved artificially. However it can be clearly seen for example on Google maps. We met translator Alexander. Russian guy with the Komsomolsk-on-Amur, who moved to the end of the 90s to relocate to Tokyo. I would like to once again express my gratitude to this man for his active participation in our trip. He spent a lot of time with us to acquaint us with the culture of this country.
Went to the hotel. The plant, which we got acquainted with the production was in Kanagawa Prefecture in the near Yokohama.
Major industrial zone. While riding the bus to the hotel saw mills Toshiba, JVC, Nissan, Nikon and others. My professional activity is related to industrial hydraulics, so we were at a factory producing hydraulic equipment.
Hotel which settled - Single Room.
Free WiFi
Smart toilets generally a separate topic for the story. There just is not any.

I will describe in a few words, with regard to work. The Japanese are very industrious nation. Under the program, we had 5 days from 8 am to 17 pm with a lunch break. Every day was painted, but we have always been able to get rid faster. Well-deserved rest of us at the same time, no one let go and sat down and discussed what you have seen and further prospects of cooperation up to 17 hours and then bowed and expenses)). It was very unusual to observe first of greeting bows. Some know Russian customs shake hands welcomed first bow, and then shrugging his hands. The older the lower the Japanese bow, youth also nods slightly in comparison with them.
Production decent automated. In the shops clean and the function of each is clearly painted.
During one of the meetings of the siren wailed. The Japanese present jumped up and pulled organized by the exit, while the senior did not stop. The interpreter translated that it does not affect us today and we can continue. Turned out to be a drill. Asked to watch out the window and saw as 3-4 minutes almost the entire staff of the plant, about 300 people was built on the central square. And all this without panic, without any fuss.
Very devoted mother company. All employers are mostly private companies.
The photo in the lobby of the founder of the main building of the plant.
Ended the official part of the visit began sightseeing.
Near the hotel is the island (do not remember the name). It has several temples and many Japanese people come there just to walk in the park. The island is connected to the mainland (big island) pedestrian bridge. Picture of the island at the outlet metro station.
And here is the island itself.
Pacific Ocean. Of course swim.
On the island
The desire of the Japanese, and of course tourists, too.
Also board desires. Basically write simple desires. Take the exam for example.
Japanese Kote. Very impressively they are there in the park. Nothing and no fear
There is not visible kote. Here it is larger)
Fast food outlets in the same place on the island
Hence, in good weather you can see Mount Fuji
Lunch

The ring of happiness before the temple. there right instruction how many times and how to pass it.
The reverse side of the island. after low tide they collect fish and snails.
Back on the boat traveled from the back side of the island. The travel time of 15 minutes.
The next item was the Kamakura - ancient capital of Japan.
Buddhism in Japan is heterogeneous. There are several different schools of Buddhism, who even fought among themselves. And the Buddha in Japan, at least in the statuettes, as opposed to the full and pretty Chinese looks pretty angry and sullen.
You can get inside. made entirely of such as bronze.
Next, here is a sanctuary or as he called them do not know.
Simply sit back and ask in any form of the Buddha what you want.
Even at the entrance to the temple is everywhere here such structure. There they poured their hands and in a certain order.
And these 200 liter drums filled with all of sake. Gift to the temple from sponsors. semiannually say updated. On the question of what happens to the old just smile.
Pond in Kamakura. They live carp turtles.
And the way to the palace held here on this avenue of cherry. Spring must be very beautiful.
Holiday quarter. Be a witness to this event succeeded in Yokohama and Tokyo. A group of people is a symbol of the quarter on a stretcher. Singing songs and shouting chants all about the association and friendship with each other - the inhabitants of the quarter. All of these actions are like once a quarter and agreed with the administration and the police, which closes at the rally car traffic.

At first it was very difficult to understand. There are women's coaches. They are pink with appropriate inscriptions and in the rush hour ride there only women. Were introduced after accusations of men by women is that they rub on their bodies in peak hours.
