Japan's Sport

KYUDO.

Kyudo is means the way of the Bow. It’s Japanese archery. It’s similar with Kendo that some of people think it’s not a sport but it is art. I think kyudo is both of sport and art because it is develop physical and mental together. The essence of modern kyudo is said to be synonymous with the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. It's not important, if the arrow don't hit at the centre of the target but it is important when you start to by the clean mind.Kyudo have a long history. In the past, the bow was used for hunting, war, games, etc. It makes kyudo is the one of Japanese cultures. I interested in kyudo a lot. I think it’s very beautiful and full of grace. It’s so cool and I want to try it!
