May 2008 Theme Day: Numbers

May 2008 Theme Day: Numbers, Kyoto, Japan
This year is 2008 and also the 20th of Heisei era, Japanese traditional era name. This year is the 20th when the present Emperor, the Emperor Akihito, acceded to the throne.

Now we use both and therefore are sometimes confused about the link between Christian Era and Japanese Era. By the way, the previous Emperor, the Emperor Hirohito, passed away in 1990, and the year is both the 64th of Showa and the 1st of Heisei.
