My Hometown

My hometown, Gyokuto, is a historical place. There are temple of Syounenji and Tokusyouji in Gyokuto. The two temples are historic temples. Gyokuto was one of the sites of hard-fought field of the Southwestern Rebellion in 1877. Then Syounenji and Tokusyouji was the place to treat a lot of people who are injured in a war. A lot of people who are injured were treated without the distinction of the enemy and ally in there. In brief, there are cradle of The Japanese Red Cross Society. This is one of the words of Gyokuto junior high school’s song. I want to be proud of my hometown as cradle of The Japanese Red Cross Society.
