ESSAY-2

I will introduce to you about my hometown KUMAMOTO.

Kumamoto is one of prefectures in KYUSHU. There is in the middle.

The prefecture has population of 1,800,000. The seat of the prefectual government is Kumamoto city.

There are many tourist attraction in Kumamoto.

Especially, Kumamoto castle and Mt.Aso are very famous spots.

KUMAMOTO castle built by Kiyomasa Kato. (1588) But the castle tower was rebuilt now.(1960)

Mt.Aso has caldera that the biggest of the world. There are many spots(spas, Caddly Dominion, Aso Farm Land etc.)

Specialty of Kumamoto are Basashi and Karashi renkon. I'm a Kumamoto citizen, but I don't like Karashi renkon. In September, a traditional event hold in. The name is Huzisakiguu Akino Taisai. It main is Horse. I think sad a little bit. And famous sweets are Mushagaeshi, Jindaiko, etc.

There are many shops (restaurants, clothes shops, beauty salon etc.) in Shimotori and Kamitori. Many young people gather there. My favorite shops are Ray cassin, Chilly, mysty woman.My recommend cafe is J- Cafe. It mood is very good, and comfortable. Please go there!

I like my hometown very much! Kumamoto is not a big city, and not a the country. I think just good. I also think it is easy to live for me.
