Previous Ramen Tour

Guillaume from France loves ramen, he ate the biggest by using his student benefit.


My friend Terai-san tried to explain about many ojizo-san. (Of course she is voluntary.)


Look at the statue of the strongest fencer Miyamoto Musashi.
He wielded two swords. Musashi's most famous duels are the ones with the Yoshioka Fencing School.
The Yoshioka School was the most major school of martial arts in Kyoto. Musashi challenged the master of the School to a duel.
On the duel day Musashi arrived late and the master was irritated. And Musashi won.
And for revenge, the master's brother challenged Musashi. The master's brother wield a staff with a ball-and-chain attached. Musashi arrived late again and won.
Musashi's second victory outraged the Yoshioka School. But the soccessor of this school was just a 12-year-old boy. So they assembled many supporters and challenged Musashi to a duel in Ichijouji-temple in Kyoto.
This time Musashi broke his usual habit of arriving late, and came to the temple hours early. Fighting with a big force is not easy. Musashi was hidden and assaulted them, killed the 12-year-old boy and ran away.
It was his strategy.
At last the Yoshioka School was destroyed.
