| Latticed ceiling with gas lighting and business ads |
In a small city tucked in an inner northern Kumamoto lies a theater calls YACHIYO-ZA built in 1910. About 20 of this type of old-fashioned theaters remain in Japan today. YACHIYO-ZA uses gas light and the lighting equipment on the ceiling looks delicate. The lady who acted as a guide was quite an entertainer. I translated what she said into English but her enthusiasm was easily communicated to her audience. What a fun memory we all got. Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, Yamaga, ASO, and Kumamoto Castle make a great combination of diversity. It sure made a good tour.
