I decided to do compilation sets for Urban Japan and Rural Japan, to show what a difference there is between the 2. Personally, I found rural Japan to be far more beautiful and photogenic. So much so that out of over 700 photos, I was surprised to find that I probably had less than 25-30 of urban Japan!
These pictures are of Kobe (upper lf), Tokyo (upper rt), a shopping area in Osaka (I think? Not sure, every big city had similar covered shopping streets), and Matsumoto City at night (lower rt).
These are Nachi Falls (upper lt), a trail at a remote mountain temple complex in Wakayama-ken (lower lt), a country road and shrine near Takayama (upper rt), rice paddies in a tiny town on the shores of Lake Biwa (middle rt), and one of the over 100 temple on Mt Koya (bottom rt).
