A Place Of Untouched Beauty
ALL EYES ON JAPAN
WHERE TRADITION MEETS THE FUTURE
ICONIC JAPAN
A rich history and culture are a large part of Japan’s appeal. Traditional troupes perform Noh and Kabuki at major national theatres, while farther afield digital art pioneers such as teamLab are pushing the boundaries of technology in new immersive exhibitions. In old cities like Kyoto, traditional townscapes and culture still endure, while the many art museums and modern architecture found on the picturesque islands of Naoshima, Teshima and Inujima offer unique settings to enjoy world-class artists while taking in a slow island lifestyle.
CRAFTS AND CULTURE
-From neon skylines and speeding bullet trains to imposing castles and breathtaking islands, Japan is a land of incredible contrasts-
Throughout Japan, artisans young and old are also keeping Japan’s craft traditions alive. In the pottery regions of Mashiko, Arita and Mino, you can visit kilns and workshops that produce beautiful ceramics for daily use or the high art of Japan’s tea ceremony. Other regions specialise in everything from jeans to furniture to metalwork and a visit brings you up close and personal with the people excelling at their craft.
