During my latest voyage to Japan, I traveled thousands of miles on Japanese trains, climbed recently erupted volcano in Kyushu, witnessed private tea ceremony, experienced the ancient tradition of UKAI - cormorant fishing. I had myself buried into hot sand in Kyushu and enjoyed natural hot springs of Shirahama, I was lucky enough to watch morning practice of Sumo wrestlers in a Tokyo professional stable and was invited for private meditation with a Buddhist monk in the darkness of his temple. I was left speechless in the heights of Tokyo's Mori Tower with millions of city lights beneath and yet again, I could not resist visiting my favorite Zen gardens of Kyoto. Yes, I had my cameras with me all the time. Bellow are a few samples of what you can expect once all my slides have been scanned. If you want to be informed every time I add new photographs to phototravels.net add your email address to my private mailing list (no spam). In the meantime, you may have a look at my Japanese photographs assembled on my previous trips to Japan. All photographs by Frantisek Staud |
