The population of Japan is one of the world’s most dense. As three-fifths of the country is mountainous, the population is concentrated on the limited coastal plains. More than 80% of the Japanese live in the cities. Despite this, Japanese people are real nature-lovers. The beauty and the variety of their landscapes are as attractive as the vibrant energy of the cities.
According to their religious beliefs and aesthetic values, men should live in harmony with Nature. Through different means, like interior decoration, music, tea ceremony, and gardens, they achieve awareness of their place in the natural elements.
