About Japan
Japan is rich in traditional culture and historical heritage where nature, history, and technology coexist in harmony. While you study abroad in Japan, you can learn more about its food, geography, politics, and history. Japan - the “Land of the Rising sun” - is an archipelago of more than 6,800 islands in the Pacific Ocean. The archipelago is located on a large volcanic zone - it has more than a hundred active volcanoes. About three quarters of the land of Japan is made of forests and mountains. This is the reason why Japan features a high population density and huge metropolises, most of which are situated on the coasts. Japan has four seasons, and you can enjoy its beautiful nature throughout the year.
