idk if you would know this...


Question Posted Sunday July 27 2008, 5:18 pm

I don't know if you would know the answer to this question, but I was wondering if in Japan there were still towns that use the old ways, like in the last samurai. I wish to visit one of these towns very much but can't find any info on one. When i go to college id find it especially exciting if i could do my study abroad program in one. I was just wondering if you had any idea. Thanks even if you don't know!!

I'm not really sure.

There might be a place like you described... But, personally, I doubt it. Japan is just as developed as the USA, if not more. Most areas that appeared untouched by time might be equivalent to our slums or ghost towns. (Unless they are specifically designed as tourist attractions, like Winston-Salem.) So... If you do find a town like that, make sure it's safe to go there.

Still... Studying abroad in Japan sounds like a great idea. And you can still sample their older traditions even in the heart of the city. Japan still has bath houses, temples, tea ceremonies, Noh performances and much more. While Japan has become very modern, as a culture they value their heritage and tradition.
