Japan Art + Flowers pictures

• World

Tradition and contemporary culture are seen in the food, fashion, anime and temples of the third-largest city in Japan.

Seeing this garden in a picture may seem like a photo effect, but it isn’t a trick. Nature, with some human help, has created a unique place that must be seen.  

Constructed entirely without nails and built on high poles, this temple is part of a World Heritage Site and offers visitors both beauty and history.

A stroll through this peaceful, colorful garden is the highlight of a trip to Tokyo at any time of year. It is especially popular for the cherry blossoms of spring.

Named after a silver-coin mint, this district has a long association with affluence. Today it’s where you’ll find some of Japan’s most upmarket labels, restaurants and galleries.

One of Tokyo\'s most famous wards has world-class shopping and entertainment options galore.

Offering a quick getaway from Osaka’s busy centre, the ponds, iconic art and historic landmarks in this slice of greenery will relax your senses. 

Home to Japan\'s Imperial Family, the grounds of the Royal Palace make for a peaceful break from urban life.
