Visiting Mishima Yukio (三島由紀夫) Literature Museum


Went to the Mishima Yukio Literature Museum down by Lake Yamanaka. I was surprised at his various activities such as acting on the movie. Around 1960s when Japan enjoyed the high economic growth, he opposed the nation's emerging mercantilism(重商主義), which he thought disrespected the Japanese way of living and culture...I assume the same kind of person may soon appear in China as well.

By the way, lots of domestic tourists and some foreigners are visiting Lake Yamanaka and Lake Kawaguchi, where Mt. Fuji is nearly located.
