Japan Kyoto: Shinto and traditional arts

When visitors are interviewed and asked for comments on Japan, it is not surprising that most of them agree that this is an interesting place with intercultural mix and surprise. Kyoto is the former capital of Japan, a city with two unfavorable aspects and expressions. On the other hand, it is similar to an international city with Tokyo, a modern design building. On the other hand, it represents peace and history, but temples and historic buildings are everywhere.

Kyoto once became the capital of Japan, is an excellent city with thousands of traditional Buddhist temples, gardens, royal palaces, shrines and traditional wooden houses lined with islands in Honshu. It is also known for its traditional tradition as its name suggests. Among them are kaiseki cuisine including many exquisite dishes, female artists and park geisha usually seen in parks. Kyoto is a mountain in the western part of Honshu, the capital of Japan, and one of the houses of the emperor, Meiji Restoration between 794 and 1868 when the capital moved to Tokyo. For thousands of years in the power, culture, traditions and religious centers of Japan, it built unparalleled palaces, temples and shrines for the emperors, generals and priests. Because Kyoto is one of the few Japanese cities to escape the bombing of World War II, there are still many pre-war buildings in Kyoto, like the traditional townhouse known as Machiya.

All beautiful ancient Buddhist temples and shrines have many reasons to travel to Japan. Kyoto is one of Japan's most preserved cities with 2,000 Buddhist temples and shrines in the Kansai region. Meanwhile, there are more than 8 UNESCO World Heritage Sites and some of the best temples in Nara. It is Nara Prefecture, but at home. Trash cans, dumped cups and cigarette butts can not be seen anywhere, smelled in the streets, white gloves are worn by bus drivers. Like white, white. For example, whatever is white is possible. Japan is very beautiful, you can safely walk on the sidewalks, they may taste like glue. Even in Tokyo it is so beautiful that it looks almost brand new! Japan is the future window that people respect the surrounding environment.

A harmonious land, sometimes called Japan, tried to show its two spiritual traditions like the whole interwoven part for a long time. However, Shinto practices and superstitions are plagued throughout the country. They were born in Kyoto, they loved Metallica's wife in a small jar outside my Western style apartment to clean my house, my mother-in-law was taking every morning. Communicate with the gods under the waterfall. In countries that play a clear role, my neighbors go to Buddhist temples and funerals, but bright orange birds to the shrine celebrate a wide variety. Buddhism may be a black and elegant fabric that Japan placed in its ancestors, but Shinto is the center of underground pulsation
