On July 14, 2022, The Imperial Household Agency released 5 photos taken in May and June at the Momijiyama Imperial Cocoonery which is located in the Imperial Palace. The photos show Emperor Naruhito, Empress Masako and their daughter Princess Aiko working on sericulture. Growing silkworms at the Imperial Palace is a traditional practice carried out by empresses since 1871.
C'est un grand plaisir de les voir en tenue décontractée en train de s'intéresser à cette pratique traditionnelle ; la princesse Aiko est ravissante avec sa queue de cheval - J'ose espèrer que le Covid continue de régresser au Japon et même de par le monde afin que cela facilite la venue du couple impérial en France ; en effet, leur visite était prévue mais la pandémie à tout gâché !
