From Narita Airport (Tokyo) to Arashiyama bamboo forest (Kyoto)
By stopping in Yamanakako to chill out per Japanese style: Onsen Style.
Exploration of Kyoto
The second day in Kyoto. Already on the sights. Golden Pavilion (Kinkakuji Temple), where we put a candle of our innermost desire; ringing bells, for the concept of glasses karma; Japanese sweets; a field of stones Ryoanji (Rock) Garden which was plowed up with a rake; the search for the Tombs of Emperors somewhere in the unknown; the Archer tournament and the first talisman, which then burn down safely.
The third and last day in the wonderful city of Kyoto. And very comfortable weather.
Visited the castle of Shogun - the commander of the Japanese army. Impregnable fort.
Next, we cleansed the soul by going through the many gates of Torii in Fushimi Inari Taisha - a Shinto temple of 711 on the mountain. Again we got talismans with predictions.
Towards evening, we managed to get to Kiyomizu Monastery - a Buddhist temple with a beautiful view of Kyoto. I talked to the universe at every drum knocked on the great tub (we mastered Zen).

3 different shrines predicted the same thing to me.
And I was lucky to get a talisman and monk beads.

One day in the small town Hamamatsu.
The infinite power of The Pacific Ocean.

We had gotten a luck and had come to Hamamatsu during a local festival.
Mt. Fuji
Nightlong trip to the heights
The video below describes how we climbed Mount Fuji out of a season (early May), when it was still covered by snow. At night.
Moreover, we also had explored the old temples and graves of monks along the way, when we have going down the pilgrims' road (20.4 km from the top). Also at night.
It was one of the most craziest I have done in my life.

On the next day after long Fuji trip
From the ocean to the volcano. Above clouds.
The top of Fuji isn't at all what you thought about it when you were a child. This is not a magical world where you can bask under the sun. The top is dark and cold, lonely and deserted. The snow and strong wind say to you: "Guy, get out from here".
But you keep going up. Because there is no other way.
Standing at 3400 meters altitude and asking yourself: "What the hell did I forget here?" There's not a single sound around. Only the hum of the wind in your ears. However, you unwittingly understand that this is great because the soul is resting in the emptiness and coolness.
As a result, we climbed to 9th stations (about 3450m), in the dead of night, where only city luminaries at the foot were visible. And from there we descended the path of the monks right up to the bottom.

Unbearably tired after the 24 kilometers road, however, no longer resemble those in the past.

Japan in two words: "respect and compactness". I would like to add another 3rd word, but my mother reads me.
Tokyo - well-developed and high organized city with 40 cm distance to your neighbor's window. But there is fun as well - in particular, riding through the city central on karting in Pokemon suits.
Well, Japan is worth seeing, because it is an another world. Kyoto, Fuji, I'll return.
