On 3rd - 4th of June, 2006 ( Sat. - Sun. ),
handred and fifty Japanese came to Takashima city,
Shiga Prefecture, Japan.
"ReDiscovery Japan Private School" has its principal object that
modern Japanese would rediscover Japanese villages, countries
and small towns, local industiries,agriculutre, art crafts and
traditional art and those related people.



They would reconsider and redefine their identity as "a Japanese",
because Japan lost its unique point of views in actual globalization.
They themselves do not reconsider what their ancients made in a
long history. Globalization, standardization and stereotype all over
Japan.The views of local towns and even villages in Japan look same
and they live daily life in a quite similar manner.
Due to those background, Japanese culture and art had lost power.
