The restaurant dedicated entirely to photography of female thighs opened in Tokyo’s Ebisu district on Tuesday in homage to the photographic work of thigh-enthusiast and Japanese photographer Yuria.

The CTF Financial Center in Guangzhou is now home to the world's fastest elevator, which can reach speeds of up to 1,200 meters per minute, or about 45 miles per hour. Japanese industrial giant Hitachi made the lift so fast that they had to design a special cabin to make sure that passenger ears wouldn't pop from the sudden changes in pressure. The lift will open for service in 2018.
Thousands of vacationers attended the sold-out opening event in the Japanese city of Beppu last weekend. The innovative new attraction combines Japanese hot spring bathing culture with rollercoasters and rides of all sizes. It all started with a video project showing hot tub rollercoasters which inspired the city’s mayor, Yasuhiro Nagano, who said the fantasy would become a reality if the video got over a million hits, a figure it exceeded in just three days. The aquatic amusements were funded by voluntary contributions, and 75,000,000 yen, or about $677,000, has been pledged to date.
Germans love their Bratwurst, a national dish in the northern European country, but Ruptly may have just discovered the King of all bratwurst, the most expensive sausage in Germany. Butcher Dirk Ludwig made some batches of bratwurst for Ruptly in his meathouse in Schluechtern. At around €30, or $32, for one link of sausage, Dirk's bratwurst is among the most expensive on the market. Kobe beef is made from cattle which comes from a specific region in Japan's Hyogo Prefecture. It is hailed by many meat critics as one of the best beef varieties in the world because of its tendernes, well-marbled texture, and the high intensity of the flavor. The first documented evidence of Bratwurst in Germany goes back to over 800 years ago. Historians documented the preparation of Bratwurst in 1313 in the city of Nuremburg, which is still renowed as a center of quality sausage production.
