    Full Description

    This volume tells the story of Japan in an unconventional way, laying out what makes it a unique place in our world. People no longer look to printed guides for addresses or technical information before travelling: there are excellent apps for that. Those who love travelling today, want to discover the culture of a place; the mythical stories that made (and make) it great; the places of worship (both religious and cultural); and any relevant insights that help them feel “in the know” as they envision their itinerary. Each book in the Travel Coolture series is divided into about 10 chapters, each delving into a specific theme that defines a place’s identify – presented through short texts rich in content, jaw-dropping photographs, and enthralling tidbits that enable them to feel the place, before they see it.
