Japan Synopsis

Japan: Traditions, Food and Everyday Life is a cultural travel guide for travellers who want to experience Japan beyond the top sights and gain a deeper understanding of its people, traditions and way of life.

Go beyond sightseeing to discover what makes Japan truly Japanese - its people, traditions, customs, food, history and way of life. This is a guide not to where to go, but to why Japan is the way it is.

Inside you'll discover:

  • Japanese culture, customs and everyday life
  • Traditions and etiquette that shape life in modern Japan
  • Japanese food, regional cuisine and culinary heritage
  • Arts, craftsmanship and design, from ancient traditions to contemporary innovation
  • Festivals, gardens, temples and spiritual traditions
  • Japanese history and the events that shaped modern Japan
  • Popular culture, from manga and anime to technology and contemporary trends
  • The people, values and philosophies that define Japan today

Illustrated throughout with striking black-and-white photography, Japan: Traditions, Food and Everyday Life is an inspiring companion for anyone who wants to discover the real Japan.
