I’m finally back from Japan!
After 10 days of holidays in Japan, I’m finally back to work today! Hooray! Another exciting and memorable tour to me, traveling Japan was always a dream for me and it finally came true! Even more tantalizing to some of you travel photography hobbyists, I have captured more than 2,000 images from the trip with my lovely Nikon D7000 and now have a new travel photos collection for Japan!
To tease some of you out there, here is one of my photos snapped during my visit to the Meiji Shrine in Shibuya, Tokyo.
Meiji Shrine (明治神宮 Meiji Jingū), is the Shinto shrine (Japanese temple) that is dedicated to the late Emperor Meiji and his wife, Empress Shōken. It demonstrates barrels of sake (nihonshu) donated to the Meiji Shrine.
Other than various Shinto shrines found everywhere in Japan, Buddhist temples are also prominent in many cities in Japan especially historic cities of Kyoto, Nara, Kamakura and Tokyo. I’m pleased to have visited quite some of them and was totally amazed by their jaw dropping temple constructions and statues.
For breathtaking scenes, I have also visited Hakone for close scenes of Mount Fuji, and viewing Cherry Blossom blooming in Hakodate was absolutely brilliant!
Apart from sightseeing, I have also the chance to taste some of the Japanese authentic local cuisine includes sushi, teppanyaki, Kobe beef, don, ice cream, rice crackers, Hokkaido giant crab, scallops and many more, which are mouth watering.
Having said that, unusual rainy weather for most of the days have had caused snapping photos a bit tricky, which was a let down to me.
