No where else but Japan will you find a more striking
contrast between the old and the new, the traditional and
the modern. The sheer urgent rhythms of consumer culture
collide with the quieter moments that linger from older
traditions. Its hectic madness leavened by the Zennest of
calms.
The modern Japan with its high-rises and bustling
restaurants, its modern railways and upscale shopping malls
would gratify any discriminating traveler. The traditional
Japan with its hundreds of temples, its raked pebble
gardens, sensuously contoured temple roofs and latter-day
geishas would fulfill the Japanese fantasy of every Western
cliché hunter.
Come and define your own vision that is Japan.
