One glass of water doesn’t equal another. One may just appease the thirst, the other you may enjoy thoroughly. In Japan, people know about this difference – Jil Sander
Japan is a country that has one of the world’s longest measurable histories, yet it is timeless, a place where ancient traditions are fused with modern life in the most seamless way. On the surface Japan appears very modern, but below the surface lays the opportunity to connect with the country’s traditional culture. Meditate with monks, learn how to make the best matcha (powdered green tea), witness Sumo fighters during their morning training or learn the secrets of the ikebana (traditional Japanese art form of flower arranging); from the lush of their gardens, the splendour of a geisha dance, the accuracy of their cuisine and details of their artifacts, to the spare beauty of the countryside, Japan has the power to enchant you and leave you unforgettable memories.
