Japanese habit –KAKEJIKU(1)

KAKEJIKU are a type of art work. That is not seen much in western culture. They don't have their traditional hanging scrolls and nor do they put examples of calligraphy or handwriting on display. 
So, KAKEJIKU have lots of aspects that foreigners are interested in. and, one striking thing it mentioned is the idea of changing the KAKEJIKU on display to match the occasion, or the type of guests coming to visit you as is done at tea ceremony. 
many foreigners find this idea not only curious but also rather charming. Because they tend to just stay good same pictures on the walls all year around. And , This shows the traditional Japanese sense of hospitality.
