In particular, its traditional woodblock prints called Ukiyo-e flourished during the Edo period in the 18th-19th century and served as cameras, portraying with intricacy and precision every aspect of Edo life, from Kabuki theater to courtesans parading in the ornate fashions of the day.<\/p>\n<p>The first eight episodes in the series were produced and recorded in Japan. In aims of taking it even closer to its overseas audience, NHK WORLD will hold its next recordings in the US, with tapings at Japan Society on Wednesday, May 11 and at Washington, D.C.\u2019s Japan Information and Cultural Center, Embassy of Japan (2520 Massachusetts Ave NW) on Tuesday, May 17.<\/p>\n<p>Free admission!<br \/>\nPre-registration for the Japan Society taping is required.
