So we are in Sapporo and like in every big japanese city there is a tower!
they have also an old clock tower!!!
But Sapporo is well known for the beer so we went to an old factory to a "beer" restaurant, but actually had no beer, quite expensive :-), but I will survive!!!
And Sapporo is in the north, so there are some advice of how to dress. This is also written that there is 10degrees difference with Tokyo, and that's really true, they also could have said that this is always raining :-(
But we are visiting and went to an Ainu museum. Ainu is a very old folk with its own language and culture.
There are still Ainu people in the Hokkaido.
They have their won type of dogs and bear as well.
the museum has some reconstruction of their houses
made with straw
and we can also visit the inside.
We can see how they dried their fishes.
A very nice view on a small lake
and very surprising they had some shoes made of the skin of salmon.
I don't know if this is very resistant...
The nice part there is that there is a show with some music and traditional dancing:
a kind of harp
and a mouth harp, actually like in Mongolia
this is a famous picture of an Ainu, what I notice is that most of them had a big beard, very funny thinking that japanese have usually not a lot of hair :-)
Some inside of the house
and a song for a baby
you see the beard???
After that and so much rain this is time for a great onsen in Sapporo :-)
