1. Yagura - Japanese Village Plaza

In the front of the Japanese Village Plaza there was a giaaaaaaant tower. It was very tall and made out of red wood (probably). THere was a ladder inside and it made me want to climb it.

So taaaaaaall! *A*

2. Ellison Onizuka Monument - Weller Court

In front of Weller Court, I stumbled upon a strange, giant black box. It was almost as tall as me and shined in the sunlight, so it was probably made up of marble. On it was a description of a man named Colonel Ellison Shoji Onizuka, a pilot from USAF.

What a handsome man~!

3. Go For Broke Monument

Past the wall right next to the Japanese American National Museum there is a monument in honor of the Japanese soldiers who sacrificed their lives in World War II.

Such a nicely built monument!

4. Japanese American Community Cultural Center - Japanese Garden

Our group was walking towards the Japanese American Community Cultural Center and we found Sensei waving while holding a gate. That gate to a small Japanese garden. It was a pretty nice garden, with a small pond in the middle.

5. Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple

On East 3rd Street is the Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple. I never got to go inside, but it opens at 10AM and my group was checking out the other sites.

6. Kyoto Grand Hotel - Restaurant and Japanese Garden

After walking three staircases and going to the very top of Weller Court I found another small Japanese garden, but there was also the Kyoto Grand Hotel's entrance. I think it was nice how the hotel lead to Weller Court with all the restaurants.
