Today's country is...

Japan!

Welcome to Japan!

Our world is made up of the sea and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 areas of land called continents.

Japan is on a continent called Asia.

It takes about 12 hours to fly there from our country, the UK.

That's like spending a whole day or a whole night on a plane.

Japan is made up of four main islands and lots of small ones as well.

People often think that Japan looks a bit like a dragon.

All countries have things that make them special.

One of the things that makes Japan special is the food.

There are so many types.

Popular dishes include blowfish, noodles and sushi.

Sushi is seasoned rice, beautifully presented in bite-sized portions, often with fish and vegetables.

In Japan, they also have these really fun square watermelons.

They usually eat their food using chopsticks.

These are two sticks used to pick up food and put it in your mouth.

A fun fact, in Japan at Christmas, families gather around to eat a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken to celebrate.

It started many years ago and has become a national tradition.

The Japanese invented karaoke.

This is where you sing along with music.

In Japan, the word karaoke means empty orchestra.

We've all seen and used vending machines to buy drinks and snacks, but in Japan these are taken to a whole new level.

You can buy clothes, pancakes, flowers, hot stew, fish soup.

All sorts of things can be found in Japanese vending machines.

Have you heard of the game Rock Paper Scissor?

It is very popular in Japan.

It was probably invented in China, but Japanese people have been playing it for hundreds of years.

There are songs about the game and big competitions take place.

Japan makes some of the best robots in the world.

You can even visit a robot restaurant.

In Japan they've made a robot which can play rock paper scissor and the robot always wins.

Unfortunately in Japan they have earthquakes.

This is when the ground suddenly shakes.

In Japan they have 2-3 earthquakes every day, but most of these are so small that no one notices.

They get earthquakes because Japan is in an area known as the Ring of Fire.

This also means there are volcanoes.

The highest mountain in Japan is called Mount Fuji and this is a volcano.

It has not erupted for about 300 years.

This means no lava, fire or smoke has come out for a very long time.

Gardens and parks are very important in Japan.

They are designed like artworks with every detail planned.

Japanese rock gardens or zen gardens help people relax.

Sometimes rocks

and other objects are carefully placed to create a wonderful environment symbolizing the essence of nature with shapes

and patterns in the sand to represent water.

In Japan they have a very different way of writing and talking.

They call their country Nippon.

This means sun's origin, where the sun comes from.

This has led to some people calling Japan the land of the rising sun.

The circle in the middle of the Japanese flag represents the sun.

Let's learn some more Japanese.

To count to three they say Ichi-ni-san.

Let's try together very quietly.

Ichi-ni-san.

Now let's go a little louder Ichi-ni-san.

Now let's go as loud as we can Ichi-ni-san.

Fantastic!

In Japan they don't say hello, instead they say Konichiwa!
