Peace Colors of the Land of the Rising Sun

It seems to us very interesting to distract from the style of "military" and look at the peaceful landscapes of Japan, as they were more than 100 years ago. And our next photo article is about the peaceful scenes of the militant Land of the Rising Sun.

Let's take a look at one of the oldest religious centers in Japan, Nikko, at its parks and places of worship.

And here is the cherry garden of the Sendai park. Cherry trees in bloom.

Tokyo - the imperial palace, parks (we see in t. H. The famous lotus fields).

Tea picking ...

and tea house ...

The marinas and canals of Yokohama.

Famous Fuji.

Nagoya Castle, one of the most famous in Japan.

Rice checks.

Kyoto Attractions.

Osaka and Kobe

Irrigation systems, parks, etc.

We conclude our photo review with a view of the old Nagasaki harbor.

And although much of what we have just seen is no longer in its previous form, it remains story, the moments of which, caught in the lens of the photographer, will remain with us forever.

Something reminiscent of pastoral species then still patchwork Germany. Both there and there were sensitive verses and admiring nature. And then in England, a plan matured to grow from these sentimental ..... soldiers and continue the redivision of the world based on the Germans and Japanese so obedient to the authorities. Actually, the British not only prepared these peoples for use .. Surprisingly, almost simultaneously, in Germany and Japan, ideas of superiority and demands for peace on their own colonies and slaves took shape.

The peoples of these countries somehow were not up to the colonies, probably working daily in sweat to live the next day and feed the children, and the whole thing was the rulers, of course, they always lacked new territories, and now they look around and dream of Baikal ours is grabbing something else, contemplating the beauties of nature in cozy rooms hung with artistic creations.

[Varreox]

Here's how you can be such a, ahem, a bad person? Absolutely neutral article with painting, and now you have to get in with your politeness.

[Basil50]

How short the memory is! Are captures of colonies really forgotten? There it came to official cannibalism. The peoples who were captured by the Japanese all remember this. And we in RUSSIA should not forget this.
There were many Japanese atrocities in our Far East.

Beautiful landscapes ----- lotuses, peonies, Buddhist attributes, alley ---- prayer wheels, caskets tied with red ribbons ------ prayer texts, for each monk his own ..... Silence, peace, meditation ..... We should not forget that this whole Japanese beauty is only for the Japanese and they do not intend to share it with strangers. For strangers ---- all the cruelties of which we are well aware.
It is interesting that almost all photos, most of them, have analogues in engravings by Japanese artists

[Adjutant]

There are no strangers between us!
We are all brothers to each other.
Under the cherry blossoms ...
Looking at the cherry orchard and the rest are reminded of the hoku.
A very interesting civilization.
Now in paints)

Yes there are no people, we see them
Wonders)

Yes, photography is not a miracle.

like Japan more than these modern bustling neon cities of skyscrapers and cars

Say what you like, pictures are babbling! But, alas, the reflex of "latent suspicion" has already been developed! If they suddenly began to praise Japan, which was not the case before, then this "zhu-zhu-zhu" is not casual!
In Soviet times, when familiar and popular foodstuffs disappeared, newspaper pages and "TVs" were filled with numerous furious "proofs" of the tremendous harmfulness of the disappeared products! So that the people would still be confident in the vigilant care of the party and Soviet authorities! So that, even, no memories of harmful food remain! When the "owners" of Russia realized that too many pensioners had accumulated in the country and that these impudent people (oh horror!) Also had to pay some money, called a pension ... and this at a time when not all officials had acquired Lexus (! ); then the media (TV channels and others ...) were filled with a frenzied topic: how 80-year-olds get married (get married), run away from almshouses to discos; 90-year-olds open offices in hospital wards, and 100-year-olds run away from their funeral to open company or buy shares ...! And now colorful Japan! If before the appearance of this "murzilka", I still hoped that the "bullshit that crayfish cough" and the chatter about the transfer of the islands would remain historical chatter; now there is no enthusiasm left! Habit! If somewhere there is some kind of "zhu-zhu-zhu" - be in trouble!

Are you talking about islands or something? Yah....
Maybe the author just felt the earlier Japanese materials again V. Shpakovsky and could not resist the topic)
Well, about the islands. If they do, the people will not forgive. However, it will become with them. As one said, automatic transmission is not possible, and non-automatic is possible.

Hunt you rob everywhere seek politics
Better to contemplate the beauty) while the eyes see))

Well ... you are probably right! Perhaps he got excited! under the impression of the appearing "zhu-zhuzhu" ... But still ... let it be a warning: People, do not "sleep" at the post! So that it will not be excruciatingly painful later ... remember that there are enough gays in Japan too!

[Albatroz]

Even in Japan?
Wow, what about oriental traditions, a thousand-year-old culture?

[Nikolaevich I]

Quote: Albatroz

Even in Japan?

Doubt? Tady watch the Japanese movie Taboo ...

[Albatroz]

No, I won’t watch about such an audience
I take your word for it!

I wonder what was in the movie "Shocking Asia" about Japan? Everything got mixed up, I forgot, it's a long time ago ... maybe about transvestites? There was something ...

[Albatroz]

beasts are shorter

[XII legion]

It is amazing how peaceful views and militaristic spirit got along.
I read somewhere about an interesting comparison that the Japanese are Asian Germans.
Красиво.
Thank you

[Albatroz]

these are the Germans of Asia.

And in terms of cruelty too

[Barcid]

The text nicely frames photos of beautiful places. Thank)))

[migrant]

Beautiful stories. Landscapes are lovely. The thought comes of expanding the territory of Russia.

[Hunghuz]

Yes, it would sound beautiful - Russian-Japanese islands. And Tokyo we would fit with its exchange))

[Albatroz]

Then it’s just Russian)) And the fact that they are claiming to our islands? We also have rights
Require...

[1536]

Some strange pattern: the more beautiful the country, the more crimes committed by their governments and armies under the slogans of the struggle for the well-being of the peoples of these countries. At least in the vast majority. Maybe there is some kind of pattern?
There are no comrades for the taste and color, and we won’t give up the Kuril Islands, as if someone did not want to.

[Kunica]

I’m waiting for a message about how to be good friends with Japan and what little things, these couple of islands. Give and forget. For how wonderful we will be friends! Wow and live!

[Albatroz]

For me, friendship with this Japan is not needed, even if they give us a couple of their islands

[Albatroz]

Anyway, what kind of friendship is this - for something. Do you agree?
