Zabytki starożytnej Nary, wpisane na listę UNESCO, obejmują świątynie, sanktuaria i pałace, takie jak Tōdai-ji z Wielkim Buddą i Kasuga Taisha. Odbijają one duchowość i kulturę Japonii z VIII wieku, kiedy Nara była jej pierwszą stałą stolicą. #Japonia #Podróże #Fotografia

Wyspa Yakushima to japońska wyspa słynąca z wiekowych lasów deszczowych i gigantycznych cedrów, niektóre mają ponad 1000 lat. Jej przyroda jest bogata i zróżnicowana, a wyspa została wpisana na listę UNESCO jako wyjątkowe dziedzictwo przyrodnicze Japonii. #Japonia #Podróże #Fotografia

A 1,000 year old sacred camphor tree, known as Ookusu (or Goshinboku), located within the grounds of Atsuta Jingu shrine in Nagoya, Japan. It is believed to be a source of spiritual energy. A shimenawa (sacred rope) is tied around the tree, marking it as a holy site in the Shinto religion.
