wow Japanese Garden in Abdoun OvO

Hi minna,

I was really surprised when I visited the Japanese embassy of Japan website and found out about the Japanese Garden in Abdoun, this is just great ^^

I will put it in my to do list when I visit Jordan in August ^^

It was designed according to traditional Japanese gardens dating back to ancient times by Japanese garden expert Mr. Fukuda, exhibiting main elements of water, rock, plants, and bridges, in addition to a special area allocated for making tea.

The Garden’s elements were brought over from Japan whereas some rocks and stones have been brought from the Dead Sea, Al Mafraq and Petra. The stones have been amended and arranged to match the classical mode of design of the Japanese garden and a special place has been allocated for tea making.



wow great news ,to see more about this go to the Japanese embassy website in Jordan bellow:

Looking forward to the trip to Izu ^^

Hi minna ^^

I am so excited about the trip to Izu ,what the hell is Izu?, where is izu ? (this is the questions in going in your mind right now ne )!!

well Izu is large mountainous peninsula with deeply indented coasts to the west of Tokyo on the Pacific coast of the island of Honshū.



I will stay there for one night in a ryokan which is a traditional Japanese inn in which floors are made of tatami (Traditional Japanese mats), there is an onsen (hot spring, first time), and ryokan Typically provides guests with a yukata to wear.

and also in Izu we will do momo tabehoudai (which means eat as much as u can of peaches , from the tree directly).

I am looking forward to it , it will be at 31 July , I will upload pictures after I come back so tanoshimi ni ^^
