Tokyo emergency measures

The state of emergency

At last Government has declared the state of emergency in Tokyo and 6 other regions.
This declaration seems to be softer than one of EMEA countries.
They ask people to live inside, avoid crowded zone, keep distance when you talk, avoid closed zone.

They also ask to close Japanese style pubs ( Izakaya ),Pachinko parlors, bars,related to the categories mentioned above.

Yes, this is asking, not order.
People might get together and spread coronavirus, Covid-19.

I don't want to say "Fingers crossed".  Instead, I want to live inactive.

Neagari matsu (The rood rose pine tree)

The small pine tree was planted on the high embankment about 200 years ago.

The ground around the root of the tree had been removed and gradually the root rose like this. 

Kenroken

This park is called "Kenrokuen" in Kanazawa city.
One of three great gardens of Japan and developed about 300 years ago by the clan, called Maeda in Edo era.
These pinetrees are suspended with the braided straw ropes for the heavy snow in winter season.

This gate is made with all wooden logs.
