With most Japanese gardens only open between 10am-5pm, visiting one most likely requires braving the heat. Thankfully though, the Japanese are well accustomed to their summers and have created wide-spread awareness of the dangers of heatstroke<\/strong>. As well as offering numerous ways to avoid it – including the sun-protection umbrellas<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Looking Out Across the Water at Hamarikyu<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n An Umbrella Collection\/Return Box at the Otemon Gate, supported by Heatstroke Zero Project<\/p><\/div>\n You’ll notice this signboard !<\/p><\/div>\n Umbrella Delivery!<\/p><\/div>\n In attempt to cool-down my overheated face, I picked-up an umbrella from the ticket booth area. However, being quite an unobservant person, I probably wouldn\u2019t have seen them if I didn\u2019t know they were there – so keep your eyes peeled! In fact, it was only after I had extended my blue umbrella that some other visitors also noticed the parasol-collection box. They then proceeded to pick their favourite colours and start posing for pictures together. As it turns out, the umbrellas are both functional and beautiful! They\u2019re available in various bold reds, blues, greens and purple, and they create a lovely contrast to the prevailing green backdrops.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cooling-down with a Parasol<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n Traditional Japanese Threading<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n VOYAPON has been supporting the <\/a><\/span>Heatstroke Zero Project<\/strong><\/a> for education and prevention of heatstroke since 2016.
