Cycling Back Home


Bicycle, you can find it everywhere all over Japan. The Japanese have this discipline where, they will not use their car to their destination if it's only around the corner. First, they do not want to contribute to traffic jam. Secondly, they do not want to contribute to air pollution. Thirdly, they want to stay healthy by cycling their bicycles instead of only hitting the clutch and shifting up gears. The Japanese even walk to their workplace. It's a country of discipline, that's what I've been told and I can say it's entirely correct especially in the rural areas like Takayama for example. This photo taken in Takayama, Japan:)
