A glimpse of Saijo. Saijo is a small town in Higashi Hiroshima, Hiroshima Prefecture. I'm going to tell some random little things through photos about this town, who knows, you'll come here someday.
Postcards, letters and small packages sent for you are distributed by JP Postal Postmen using this red motorcycle. Among the many newest and trendy designs of this kind of vehicle, our post office -in Japanese 'yuubinkyouku'- stick to the old ones. No complain, I love it.
Got this postcard from Delilah and Jack when they spent a month in Turkey. They are now somewhere in Egypt having the most fun trip ever :). Wishing them a happy, safe journey.
Henny! I am so happy you recieved it...I was starting to worry it might not make it. I got my parents to take the postcards from Turkey when they went home, so it was posted from Canada....it has made a long trip to get to you :)
I read it in your post, something about cheap stamps? :)). The postcard has traveled much farther than I have so far. Egypt? I think I have to edit my note.
Saijo is one of the towns that make up Higashi-Hiroshima City. In April 1973, Saijo was chosen as the home of the relocated Hiroshima University.
There is one thing very popular about Saijo, it is sake. Since July 1995, Saijo was made the home of the Brewery Laboratory of the National Tax. Each October there is also the Saijo Sake festival.
