This is the Italy I would like to introduce you to.

For centuries the Japanese language existed solely as an oral language that was never written down. While the characters are similar to that of the Chinese language, the language itself is very different. The Japanese language uses three different writing systems and also has three different levels of formality. While that may seem complicated, the language does not use plurals or articles, and you can make a complete sentence using only verbs. Luckily, most major cities and attractions also use the English language, so it is easy to get around during your stay.

That means no upset stomach, headache, or red cheeks! Like wine, sake can be enjoyed hot or cold, and its flavors range from sweet to extremely dry.

Established in 645, the Sensoji Temple is the most famous Buddhist temple in Tokyo. The temple was built to honor the goddess of mercy, Kannon. Legend states that in 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. While the complex has been around for centuries, the oldest structures are the Nitenmon gate and Rokkaku-do, built-in 1618. All other original structures were lost to various natural disasters.
