Japan April 2013

Just a few photo’s from a week long visit to Japan in April, went to a conference and to also pay my respects in Hiroshima.

The conference was a bit lame, but I visited Hiroshima and Kyoto before staying Osaka for the conference.

The country side I saw from the trains – the trains are clockwork, fast and clear – was a patchwork of green and plowed fields. The cities were a little drab but with a number of cultural and historic buildings. In Hiroshima mostly everything has been rebuilt, the peace park is a moving place to visit.

Some pics below.
