Japanese legends and tales 伝説 民話 昔話 - Introduction



. Join us ! Japanese Legends of Facebook ! .

Whereas folktales (mukashibanashi 昔話) are usually pure phantasy and happen "once upon a time",
many legends (densetsu) have a bit of truth, explaining about a place name, a historical person, a local speciality or something of that kind. Legends with a similar theme but varying contents can be found in different regions of Japan.
