Check it out! I have found the wadaiko when I walking around Asakusa town. For the people who do not know what the wadaiko is...
wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wadaiko) says...
Wadaiko is the Japanese word for Japanese-style drums. It is formed from wa- (和) meaning "Japanese" and "taiko" (太鼓) meaning "drum". While in Japanese "taiko" means "drum", in English speaking countries the word is used to refer to Japanese drums, which are technically wadaiko.
You can use this wadaiko in the festival or some party. The price is 498,000 yen!! (around 5,000 USD). But this wadaiko is complied to the specifications on the wadaiko, so this can be used in the official traditional celemony.
This kind of traditional items can be your precious memories, so please find them and let me know by posting your comment! Thank you.
