Lodestars Anthology, Issue 7 – Japan Revisited
Lodestars Anthology is not your traditional travel magazine. Focusing on one country per issue, it is instead an independent publication all about place, journeys and discovery. Made up of a collection of guides, interviews, essays, photographs and illustrations, the focus is on capturing colour and verve. By looking at a destination’s history, charm, quirks, secret corners and fascinating residents, Lodestars Anthology aims to encapsulate the essence of a country in a very fresh way.
In this issue:
Journey to Japan and discover a land of tea and tropics, wabi-sabi and wonder. A place where symbolism abounds and nothing is without purpose.
There are illuminated capitals and pockets of untouched wilderness, both marked by a deep sense of spirituality. Art flourishes, design inspires and others come first. May the light never dim on the Land of the Rising Sun
Some featured locations: Yakushima, Naoshima, Kunisaki Peninsula, Kii Mountains, Nikko, Yaeyama Islands, Tokyo, Aomori, Kyoto, Akita, Kinosaki Onsen, Furano, Osaka, Toyama
This updated reissue contains a host of features from the original two issues and a selection of new stories and artworks.
