Clay Bells of Yamato in Japan.

This site is exhibiting Japanese traditional clay bells which I collected with the hobby. If you have a chance to visit temples or shrines in Japan, you can get some of them as souvenirs. You may think that they are suitable as decorations of your room. But originally, they were considered the charms which call happiness. Especially this site is sent from Nara Prefecture. Nara is the place which had a capital about 1300 years ago .I hope you can enjoy the pictures of bells or scenery , although these pages are described only in Japanese.
