Engawa Summerr: Let’s play Zui Zui Zukkorobashi Game

RoHoEn YouTube Video: Playlist: Engawa Summer - Enjoy learning Japanese Culture! Engawa means a floor extension at one side of a Japanese-style house, usually facing a yard or garden and serving as passageway and sitting space. Engawas are often proportioned so that one can sit on the edge and observe the garden. They provide a space for playing children and casual visitors to welcome. Segments of various cultural and educational programs will be presented from Tea house Engawa with very authentic settings.
