Japan – Immersion in Culture 11D/10Nbeyonders2024-01-10T10:21:49+00:00
The historical charm and beauty of Japan comes alive in its many temples and shrines, parks and gardens, and its old wooden houses. And this old world charm gets accentuated with some of Japan’s oldest traditions, such as the tea ceremony, flower arranging, and geisha schooling. It gets brighter and vibrant with the Lavender. The nearly perfect shaped Volcano Mt Fuji is worshipped as a sacred mountain and has been a source of inspiration for artistes and common people alike. Come Beyonder with us and explore Japan.
