Very is an extremely old temple built in 1626

So, on the first week of April a group of students that study Japanese at our school went on a trip to Japan, I was not one of those students who got that opportunity, although my best friend got to visit Japan and look at their culture. From all the different stories and places that my friend told me about, i gathered that Japan is a very clean and polite place to visit. The scenery and temples in Japan all looks so beautiful and intricate and it makes me want to visit Japan for myself. My best friend really enjoyed visiting Japan and seeing a different cultures lifestyle and she highly recommends visiting Japan because it is such a beautiful well kept, polite travel destination.
