Cultural activities
Japan has a famous "three paths", namely, Japanese folk tea ceremony, flower path and book path.
Japanese tea ceremony
Tea ceremony, also known as tea soup (tea tasting), has been loved by the upper class as an aesthetic ceremony since ancient times. Tea ceremony is a unique tea ceremony and social etiquette. Japanese tea ceremony was first introduced to Japan during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty in China. The Japanese say that "China is the hometown of Japanese tea ceremony", which is somewhat similar to Chaoshan kungfu tea in China.
The flower path was born as a technology to replicate the flowers in the wild in the teahouse. Because of the different rules and methods of exhibition, pattern science can be divided into more than 20 schools, and there are also many schools in Japan that teach various schools of pattern science techniques. In addition, in hotels, department stores and other places, you can enjoy the beautifully decorated art of flower arrangement. Taboo lotus, think lotus is a funeral flower. Avoid camellia, chrysanthemum is a symbol of the royal family.
Calligraphy, when it comes to calligraphy, I believe many people will think it is a unique art in China. In fact, calligraphy is not only popular in Japan, but also one of the ways people cultivate their temperament. In ancient Japan, calligraphy was called "Tathagata" or "calligraphy", and the word "calligraphy" did not appear until the Edo period (17th century). In Japan, the popularity of writing Chinese characters with a brush should be after the introduction of Buddhism. Monks and Buddhists copied scriptures with a brush, imitating China.
Sumo originated from the religious ceremony of Japanese Shintoism. In Nara and heian period, sumo was a court sport, but in Kamakura and the Warring States period, sumo became a part of samurai training. Professional sumo began in18th century, which is very similar to sumo competition. Shinto ceremony emphasizes sumo, and the purpose of stamping before the game is to drive away the evil spirits in the field and also to relax the muscles. Salt should be sprinkled on the site to achieve the purpose of purification. Once a sumo wrestler arrives in Yokozuna, he can almost be said to be at the apex of the Japanese sumo world, and will have the supreme glory for life.
Kimono is the name of traditional Japanese national costume. It is also called "persistence" in Japan. Kimono is modeled after the Sui and Tang Dynasties in China, so it is called "Five Clothes" and "Tang Fu" in Japan. Kimono is the western name for Wufu, and the Japanese have accepted this name, but many shops selling kimonos still write "Wufu". In the 8th and 9th centuries, Tang Feng was once popular in Japan. Although it changed later and formed a unique Japanese style, it still contains some characteristics of ancient Chinese clothing. The different styles and colors of women's kimonos are the signs that distinguish age and marriage.

Judo enjoys a high reputation all over the world. The basic principle of judo is not to attack, but to use the opponent's strength to protect the body. The grade of judo players is expressed by the color of their belts (primary: white/advanced: black). Judo is the development of boxing in China, which originated from Shaolin. Chen Yuanzan, a martial arts expert from China in the late Ming Dynasty, introduced China traditional martial arts into Fusang (modern edition) and became the forerunner of modern judo in the world.
Kendo refers to Japanese swordsmanship, which originated from samurai's important martial arts fencing. According to strict rules, the contestants wear special protective equipment and stab each other's head, body and fingertips with bamboo knives.

Noko is a traditional Japanese drama and one of the oldest extant dramas in the world. Nengju originated from ancient dance drama forms and various festival dramas held in Japanese shrines and monasteries in the12nd century or13rd century. "Neng" means talent or skill. Actors hint at the essence of the story through facial expressions and body movements, rather than showing it. This kind of drama still has a strong vitality in Japan.
Aikido is a Japanese martial art that wins by skill.
Generally, westerners think that the only food in Japan is beef chafing dish or weird-looking sushi, but many tourists know how to taste fresh fish and sauteed shrimp when they come to Japan. The main course in Japan is fish. "Sashimi" and "Sushi" were introduced to Japan from China in the Tang Dynasty, and were very popular in Japan after being improved by the Japanese. Raw food is also a very healthy way to eat, which can reduce the loss of nutrients in fish more than cooking. The methods of Japanese cooking fish are mostly low-temperature cooking and steaming. The selected fish are all healthy marine fish.

Japanese cold noodles are placed on bamboo boards, picked up with chopsticks and eaten in cold soup. Some restaurants don't have spoons, so Japanese people are used to picking them up and drinking soup.
Drinks
Beer: Japanese people like to drink beer best, whether it is draft beer or bottled beer. In summer, some department stores even have open-air beer halls to attract a large number of tourists.
