Bulidings in Japan are so diverse. There is the old, the new and everything in between. There are the shrines and temples – and the gardens. It seems the old is not replaced by the new but that the new fits in around what is there already. There doesn’t appear to be a CBD as such with different quarters for specified requirements. Little restaurants sit amonst skyscrapers and small back lanes are next to busy bustling major roads. The evolution of the towns and cities are evident. And amidst the busyness of fast trains and interweaving roadways, there are gardens which exude tranquility.
