One rarely hears a baby cry in Japan or China, and this has been attributed to the contented state a baby settles into when snuggled close to its mother or other family member.
Oiled paper or coated rice paper parasols are a useful art form. They provide shade from the sun, and are used to display traditional designs and calligraphy as decorative objects. |
