Japan
The multifaceted Tokyo, sumo and Zen temples.
Japan is the only country in the world where ultra-modern technologies do not contrast with ancient traditions, but seamlessly intertwine and coexist in harmony. This is the art of Japanese life: zen meditation after a busy day in a Tokyo skyscraper, extravagant street fashion and tea ceremonies with centuries of history, the best technology in the world and Buddhist temples with stone gardens, where time stands still.
