Contrast is no more appropriate than in reference to Japan, famed for being the land of extremes. The modern and bustling cities of Tokyo and Osaka, with their glistening skyscrapers, exist within the same landscapes as the ancient capitals of Kyoto and Nara full of cultural and historical treasures.
Shadowed by the awe-inspiring Mount Fuji are, famously beautiful Japanese gardens, national parks, temples, shrines, pagodas and castles. A notoriously modern icon of Japan is the Shinkansen (Bullet Train), which travels with speed and grace through the countryside. Understanding the way Japanese people live is significant to gaining an appreciation of their culture and an ideal way to experience this for yourself is with a stay in a Ryokan. |
