Japan is a country of many contrasts. Standing amidst the neon-lit commercial hubs of Shinjuku or Shibuya, it's hard to imagine the lush countryside, green landscapes, and zen-like retreats that make up much of the country.

Modern Japan looks towards its place in the world, constantly building, renewing, and innovating. However, order, ritual, and ceremony remain at the heart of Japan.

Traditional Japanese martial arts, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, calligraphy, culinary arts, and even social interactions grew out of a sense of order and method. Look for store employees who meticulously perform their work or railway staff who solemnly countdown and check the platform for departure. You'll see that ceremony is second nature and influences nearly every aspect of the culture.

Japan maintains its connection with nature and ceremony through its temples, art, traditions, festivals, and its fresh local cuisine. The country only opened its doors in the mid-19th century, quickly absorbing foreign influences. Yet, a traditional spirit remains in all aspects of life. Every time you visit Japan, it may be a bit different, but it will always be uniquely Japanese.
