Since more than 10 years they amaze us with their fascinating stories: dazzling, plain, strange, magical and commonplace, here trumpeted from the big city, there whispered from a remote mountain. They tell of the Kansai region and its people, of the old and the new. We hope that our travel impressions and Aha! experiences of Japan’s history and culture may delight the reader and perhaps bring the country a bit closer.
