Yakisugi is a traditional Japanese means of charring cedar in order to preserve the wood. It dates back to earlier than the 1700’s mainly with residential and commercial exterior siding and fencing. With newer and cheaper siding options coming into Japan in the 1950’s the design style and craftsmen began to fade away. You can still see many examples of these original builds in rural farming communities and older commercial areas of cities. In the 2000’s though both Japan and the rest of the world began to re-embrace this beautiful and practical tradition.
Burning the top one-eighth inch of each wood board seals and protects the it against rain pe*******on and rot Paradoxically, it also makes the wood fire resistant, so retardants won't be necessary. The process also improves the durability, stability, and lifespan of the wood by preventing termite infestations and decay.

Koi fish in Harie

07/09/2019

The Harie district in Takashima, Shiga Prefecture, reminds one of good old Japan, with traditional tiled-roof houses lining the streets. Located roughly 1.5 kilometers from Lake Biwa in the northwest part of the prefecture, it is a place full of natural beauty, with fish swimming in numerous canals and streams that transect the district. For some 300 years, residents have fostered a unique water culture that centers around "kabata" -- a water supply system that utilizes the region's abundant underground water.

Japan is known for the close relationship between its people and nature. Shinto, the native religion of Japan, includes the worship of natural phenomena and nature itself. It is not a surprise, therefore, that Japan is still predominantly covered in untouched forests. However, this rugged environment meant that the people of years ago had to be quite clever to make their place amongst the mountains. This is true, especially of Harie village, the village of living water.
