Описание: Step back in time to Japan in 1970 with this beautifully preserved 16mm (or 8mm) color footage. This segment of the "B’nai B’rith Orient Tour #7" captures the soul of Japan during a decade of immense cultural and economic change.

Witness the intricate craftsmanship of the Nikko Toshogu Shrine, the powerful presence of the Great Buddha (Daibutsu) in Kamakura, and the breathtaking natural landscapes of Hakone. You’ll see vintage cable cars scaling emerald mountains, traditional street vendors, and the iconic "0 Series" Shinkansen (Bullet Train) in its early years of operation.
