comedy show@Osaka

We finally finished this year's Japan tour the day before yesterday!!
The final place of the tour was Osaka.

Yesterday, I went sightseeing before I came back to Tokyo.
Osaka is a interesting place. The culture is very different from other
prefectures.
For example, most of funny Japanese comedians came from Osaka.
Osaka is a mecca for Japanese comedy.

I went to "Nanba Grand Kagetsu" to see a comedy show.
I burst out laughing at their 'Manzai'

This beautiful flower come out from a marsh.
Lotus is the symbol flower for Buddhism.

Gansen temple & Jyoruri temple

Historical place Nara has a lot of beautiful old structures.
There are a lot of tourists everywhere, but I was luckey! 

My friend who is from Nara took me to some amazing "unknown" temples.
There were no tourists. It was quiet and there were many statues of
Buddha which were national treasures and beautiful gardens.

Nara

I'm in Kansai area (west Japan) for a concert tour from this thursday.
Our orchestra had a concert in Nara yesterday. The hall was huge and
interesting.
