The other day, there was a qualification examination on Kyoto. It is great thing to know about traditional in Kyoto. Kyoto, which was the capital of Japan many years ago, is wonderful place, because there are lots of traditional buildings. I suggest that you visit there. I will take the examination soon. The Kyoto Chamber of Commerce and Industry has sent a list to about 7,500 people of 74 errors found in an official textbook for the examination about sightseeing and culture in Kyoto. The examination , organized by the chamber , evaluates whether people are knowledgeable about Kyoto. The errors were simple mistakes. However, serious mistakes were also found in the textbook. For example, the height of the stage of Kiyomizu temple in Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, was written as being 31 meters, although it is about 13 meters. This affair brought me a worry which I 'll take the examination.I want the chamber retrieves the textbook now! |
