Buddhism
Buddhism (Pali/Sanskrit: बौद्ध धर्म Buddha Dharma) is a religion and philosophy encompassing a variety of traditions, beliefs and practices, largely based on teachings attributed to Siddhartha Gautama, commonly known as the Buddha (Pāli/Sanskrit "the awakened one"). The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern Indian subcontinent some time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE. He is recognized by adherents as an awakened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end suffering (or dukkha), achieve nirvana, and escape what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth.

I have gotten severly addicted to Prince of Tennis. Not only do I watch it religiously, but I go crazy fangirl-like whenever Eiji-chan pops up on the screen. So I figured, after I had reached some 1200 screenshots of him, I should make a little tribute. This is the result of that. It's set to the song Wonderful Days by Pulltab no Kan, and it features 142 pictures from my modest collection. My favorite TeniPuri song, my favorite TeniPuri character. There's even some bits of the lovely Ochibi in there too. I hope you all enjoy watching it!

Shinobazu Pond ( 不忍池, Shinobazu no Ike) Martedì 30 marzo 2010 en.wikipedia.org Ueno-koen Park is a popular cherry-blossom viewing place and certainly one of Tokyo's most crowded park on Sundays. Foreign tourists and Japanese alike flock to the Park to visit many of Japan's largest museums : Tokyo National Museum, National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, National Museum of Nature and Science, and Shitamachi History Museum. Ueno Koen is also home to the Tokyo Zoological Gardens (open 9:30am-5pm, last entry 4pm, adults ￥600, free under 13 years old), famous for its pandas, giraffes, elephants, tigers or polar bears. The neighouring Tōshō-gū Shrine, dating from 1651, is the counterpart to the Tōshō-gū in Nikkō. Both were built in honour to Tokugawa Ieyasu by his grandson Iemitsu. The shrine itself (entry ￥200) is not as impressive as the one in Nikkō, but the adjoining five-tiered pagoda is well worth a look. There are iron and stone lanterns all around the premises. Ueno Park has several other religious buildings, ranging from a Nepalese- or Thai-looking stupa (originally belonging to the Kan'ei-ji Temple, destroyed in 1868 during Boshin War), to a branch of Kyoto's Kiyomizu-dera and an Inari Shrine reminding of Kyōto's Fushimi Inari Taisha, although both on a much smaller scale. The Shinobazu-no-ike pond separates Ueno Park from Nezu to the North and Yushima to the South, both noted for their respective shrine. The Benten-dō Hall sits in the <b>...</b>

We head off to Ueno koen (Ueno park ). We visit the Tokyo National Museum - lots of Hiroshige and Hokusai prints. A really cool display of how the woodblocks are created. We have a so-so lunch at the museum, then walk through the park to the Tosho-gu shrine to the 1st Tokugawa emperor Ieyasu. Ancient stone and brass lanterns line the walkway. "sponsored by Hitachi". It's Japan. A Nagasaki memorial with a flame from the Hiroshima memorial. A tent city of blue tarps - haven for the homeless. It's everywhere. Confronted with more irony on the way out of the park. 2 people dressed in Native Maerican tribal gear playing flute and pan flute. Opposite what look like wicker wire animals rigged to light up with Christmas lights. It's Japan. We then head back to the hotel, check into the second room, and unwind for a bit.

Kan'ei-ji's five-story pagoda (photo above) and the Tōshō-gū shrine were amongst the gems of the old temple enclosure. Both stand undisturbed by the passage of years since the end of the Tokugawa shogunate.
History
Tenkai wanted to create a powerful religious center and, to achieve that, he built Kan'ei-ji imitating Mount Hiei's Enryaku-ji. Ietsuna's and Tsunayoshi's mausoleums were destroyed in 1945. The cemetery is closed to the public, but can be seen from the street.
The Battle of Ueno and the destruction of Kan'ei-ji
In his book "High City, Low City", Japanologist Edward Seidensticker describes the last days and the destruction of Kan'ei-ji.The revolutionary forces had occupied most of Tokyo, and Edo Castle and the majority of the Tokugawa troops had already surrendered, however one band of shogunate soldiers barricaded itself in Ueno with the intention to resist. About 2000 men strong, it was composed of members of the Shōgitai, a military unit of former Tokugawa retainers the final attack came and from early morning artillery rounds fell from Hongo's heights on Ueno. After a fierce battle, in the late afternoon the revolutionary forces broke through the defenses in the south at the Black Gate (the Kuromon), near what is today Ueno Park's entrance. There were altogether about 300 dead, mostly defenders. Most of the artillery rounds had gone astray, causing fires in which the whole Kan'ei-ji and up to a thousand houses were destroyed. The temple's abbot fled in disguise and left the city by boat.
