Japanese Points of Interest?

[JerryCarr]

Glen, some of the Shinto and Buddhist temples are not only architecturally and decoratively interesting, but often have Japanese social activities and networks for their congregrations. You might want to contact some of them to see if they will be having any ceremonies, festivals, or other interesting things going on during the visit. Most of them welcome respectful visitors, regardless of religion, and some even promote attendance at their activities in the media.

Cheers,
Jerry
