The mountain stands tall and proud, unaffected by the changing winds and the snow’s weight capping its peak. Mount Fuji’s crest is 3,770 meters high. The mountain can be seen from the city of Tokyo on a clear sunny day. Mount Fuji, separated from its mountain range stands alone, is perfectly symmetrical and contains the Japanese spirit of resilience.
  • Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is the place where the unfortunate use of a Nuclear weapon led to the killing of millions and the end of the World War II. Today, this site is a world-renowned park, made to remember the lives that were lost that day and to convince the world to abandon nuclear weapons. The park is completely safe to visit and has seen many world leaders coming into its grounds to pay respects. Ever since the terrible destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan has been steadfast and vocal against the use of nuclear weapons and nuclear proliferation.
  • Kiyomizudera temple in Kyoto is a must see in Japan. The serenity of the temple is legendary. The Shinto philosophy provokes the worshippers to find God in natural beauty, which is why most temples are near waterfalls and forests with a lot of sunshine. The temple was constructed in 780 AD, with several expansions and renovations through the years. Kiyomizudera Temple was constructed from wood without the use of metal nails and houses the three water springs that bless health, wealth and wisdom to its drinkers.
