The Peninsula Tokyo, Japan

Japan

The “Land of the Rising Sun” is a country where the past meets the future. Japanese culture stretches back
millennia, yet has also been quick to adopt and has created the latest modern fashions and trends. It is an island nation in the Pacific Ocean with dense cities, imperial palaces, mountainous national parks and thousands of shrines and temples. From the splendour of a Kyoto geisha dance to the spare beauty of a Zen rock garden, Japan has the power to enthral even the most jaded traveller.

Tokyo

Tokyo, Japan’s busy capital mixes the ultramodern and the traditional, from neon-lit skyscrapers to historic
temples. Tokyo offers a seemingly unlimited choice of shopping, entertainment, culture and dining to its visitors. The city’s history can be appreciated in districts such as Asakusa and in many excellent museums, historic temples and gardens.

Japanese tea ceremony

Also called the Way of Tea, is a Japanese cultural activity involving the ceremonial preparation and presentation of matcha, powdered green tea. The Japanese tea ceremony has a set of practices, etiquette and characteristics that define it and set it apart
from other cultural ceremonies.

Asakusa

Located in Taito-ku along the west bank of the Sumida-gawa River, the Asakusa district once thrived as a temple town for the nearby Senso-ji Temple. Today, it is a vibrant downtown district that rivals the likes of Ginza, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro and Shibuya, but with beautiful elements of its history still intact.

environment described as ‘international in design, but Japanese by inspiration”.
