lanterns

lanterns
I took this photo, when I walked on a back street in central funabashi.
Those lanterns were hung out side of an Izakaya.
Izakaya means Japanese pub.
If you visit Japan, you will often see such lantern.

Lanterns and Japan go together. For European, it's a little like your symbol. Those ones are tall and beautyful.

Together with rice paper screens, Japanese paintings, ikebana (floral arrangement) and tatami mats, lanterns like these will make perfect decoration for a Japanese themed home.
