Japan

Tourists from all around the world come to see Japan’s wonderful and exciting attractions.  One of the most profitable attractions is Tokyo.  Tokyo is best known for the shopping districts and for the latest high tech gadgets on display.  Tokyo also has the largest fish market in the world.  Another major tourist attraction is the sumo-wrestling head quarters, Kokugikan.  Two other attractions are Mt. Fuji for its spectacular view of the sunset, and the city Osaka for the Osaka Castle.  Also, many tourists visit Japan for historical attractions.  One very popular historical attraction is the city of Nikko for the temples and shrines. Additionally, Kamahura is a historical city where in 1192 the great warlord Yoritomo Minamoto took control of a country from this spot.  Another place of historical interest is Hiroshima, where the United States dropped an atomic bomb during World War II.  Also, one rather interesting attraction is the Noh performances in the theater.  The Noh style performances date back to the 14th and the 15th centuries.  This form of theater usually consists of ghosts and spirits and tells about how good and bad fortune comes in a never-ending cycle.

Japan is a small, plentiful country that has brought joy to people all over the world. Even though they are the leading manufacturers of the newest high tech gadgets, they still have great love and respect for the environment.   These people give humanity an example of love for nature, ritual, and honor.
