Yesterday we visited the Japanese garden once more. Many people, posters giving strength to Japan by the terrible situation they are facing, we traveled yesterday ...
And I buy a mini kitty fortune, here meaning your photo and
In many Chinese and Japanese retailers, both stores and restaurants or bars, there is a place reserved for those figures that represent a cat's paw moving up and down. Are the cats of fortune, called mao zhaocai Maneki Neko in China and Japan.
These figures are a symbol of good fortune and luck. It seems that we say goodbye, yet they do is a gesture of calling the Oriental style. In the Western call with the palm up, and waving from the bottom up, but in the east, is just the reverse.
Those who move the right leg attract money, and moving left, the customers. Were traditionally white, red and black, but now you can find all kinds. From gold, which seems to be one of the favorite colors, or silver, to some that represent the "Hello Kitty" and other cartoon characters
