Shaoxing

Shaoxing Name Origins & Local Words (2026)

Nice write-up, the wine sayings are spot on. One thing I'd add is that "chi jiu" isn't just for banquets, you'll hear it casually at any meal, even lunch, if someone's having a small glass. Also, the...

What's the best spot to watch the Jingu Gaien Fireworks Festival this Saturday?

Let me start by telling you guys, I'm not paying 7000 yen for a seat! It's just not something I'm willing to do. I refuse! I'd rather invest this money into a copious amount of beer. I guess the lawn...
