Japan scrapbook part two

OK, so now I've finished my Japan scrapbook, I thought I should share the second part with you. It covers our visit to Kyoto, nearby Nara and their deer park and Buddhist temple and our time in Hiroshima, including the Peace Memorial Park remembering the events of 1945 and our visit to Miyajima Island with its beautiful floating Torii gate, which should be familiar to any visitors to Epcot!


Our Shinkansen high speed train trip from Tokyo to Kyoto

Nijo Castle in Kyoto




The gardens of Nijo Castle


The Ryoan-ji temple in Kyoto

Kyoto's Golden Pavilion

The shopping area of Kyoto

The five storey pagoda in Nara

Paying respects at a shrine in Nara

Sampling the local delicacies on offer!



The Todai-ji temple in Nara with its giant Buddha

Nara's famous deer

Nara Park

Back at Nijo Castle at night

Enjoying cherry blossom season in Kyoto



Nanzen-ji temple in Kyoto


Heian shrine in Kyoto, the city's newest temple

Our hotel in Hiroshima





Shukkeien Gardens in Hiroshima

The streetcar system in Hiroshima



Miyajima's famous floating Torii gate

Miyajima Island

Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima Island

Enjoying more cherry blossom!


The Daisho-in Temple on Miyajima Island



The haunting A-bomb Dome in the centre of Hiroshima, the only building left standing after the bomb dropped

General Memorial Peace Park page, showing some of the highlights

Another general Memorial Peace Park page - from this page until the last page, there's text on each page, telling the story of what happened, as seen in the Hall of Remembrance

The Atomic Bomb Memorial Mound and a tree that survived the bomb - it didn't die, but it didn't grow anymore

Children's Peace Momument

The bottom end of the Peace Memorial Park including the Fountain of Peace and the Peace Memorial Museum

The Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall

The Cenotaph and Flame of Peace to be extinguished when the world is rid of nuclear weapons

Hope you enjoy this!

Gorgeous, Cheryl! You've got some really neat scrapbooking elements in your book. Did you find a lot of that while on your trip, or did you find those elsewhere?

Anything that looks like a leaflet came from Japan - anything that looks like a proper embellishment, I bought from scrapbook suppliers. I managed to find some really nice Japan embellishments.

Aaah... now there's a story. We took so many photos (which I know won't surprise you! that I was struggling with what to do with it. I found a programme online and I've decided to do a photobook instead. I did a huge chunk of the work a few weeks ago, but then got sidetracked on to other things. Yesterday I picked it up again. I've done Tokyo Disneyland and the hotel, now I just need to do Tokyo DisneySea, which will be a lot of pages. When it's done, I will post the results.

As far as scrapbooking goes, I'm moving on to my Decade of Dreams trip next.

I loved all your pictures from Tokyo Disney, so I can't wait to see the photobook you created.
