Japanese Culture

Among many Japanese cultural things, I will introduce Wagashi, Japanese sweets, on today’s blog. I think you just know one place where Wagashi is famous. There is Kyoto. Nevertheless in general, there are the 3 most famous Wagashi places. There are Kyoto, Kanazawa and Matsue. I think you know Kyoto and Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture. But do you know Matsue? In fact there is my home town!
There is Matsue Castle in my city. So especially in a castle city, it remains the traditional culture of green tea and sweet. Many local people sometimes enjoy drinking green tea and eating Wagashi. I also sometimes enjoy them.
Because Wagashi is famous, there are many Wagashi shops around the city. Among them I think “Saiundo” is one of the most famous shops in Matsue. Recently they try to sell Wagashi in New York, America. They made Wagashi for New Yorkers and got great success. This challenge was to make Wagashi be famous, especially Wagashi of Matsue. And the reason why they choose New York is that New York is the place of sending world information. This challenge was reported in some web sites in New York. The company also reports their challenge in their web page so please check it in Japanese. Their try will continue.
