A Look into Japan: Clay Throwing

During my trip to Japan, I visited one of Japan’s top three scenic views known as Amanohashidate, where a naturally-made land bridge connects two pieces of land. Clay throwing was an activity offered to visitors who could write their wishes on the clay. By throwing them through the goal, we are guaranteed that our wish will come true. Thank you Naoshi for bringing me to this amazing sight!
