Description :

Japan is a nation of islands that isolated itself from the outside world for many years. This enabled Japan to develop a unique culture and its own religion. Here it is common to see women walking around in kimonos especially when visiting shrines and temples. Explore Shinto shrines and customs, and visit Buddhist temples. Admire gardens, feudal castles, Mount Fuji and much more as we explore these Japanese cities.  Led by retired high school teacher Sheila Taub, who now presents illustrated talks on her travels at libraries, senior centers, community centers and cruise ships.
