JAPAN a Photography Book by JULIAN BOUND A photographic journey through Japan by National Geographic contributor Julian Bound. With a population close to 130 million, Japan offers the uniqueness of a society living hand in hand with both ancient and ultramodern cultures. This combination of the traditional and the new can be experienced within two hours when, connected by the Shinkansen Bullet train, a visitor can take in the delights of Kyoto's historical shrines and secluded gardens before arriving in Tokyo's metropolis of neon light and huge television screens beaming down upon the city high above electrical stores and vast shopping malls.
Yet, Japan's capital also embraces the long-standing and the innovative, providing a cityscape like no other. Table of Contents  TOKYO Senso-Ji Temple The Tsukiji Markets Harajuku Zojo-ji Temple HIROSHIMA Itsukushima Torii Gate Genbaku Dome Shukkei-En Gardens KYOTO The Bamboo Forest of Arashiyama The Shosei-en Gardens Heian-Jingu Gardens Hanami-Koji Street  'Japan' an intimate portrait of Japan and its cultural heritage, landscapes, gardens shrines and people. ABOUT THE AUTHORBorn in England, Julian Bound is a documentary photographer, film maker and author.
