Eternal Japan invites readers on a personal and inspiring journey to the "land (国, kuni) of origin (本, hon) of the Sun (日, ni)", an archipelago that has fascinated Nicolas Wauters since his earliest childhood.

Each image tells a story. Each street corner reveals a hidden world. Each landscape, with its timeless beauty, offers a vision of serenity. The photographs unveil the subtle balance between enduring traditions, still vibrantly alive, and the modernity of the cities, often in striking visual contrast.

Brief introductory texts present the distinctive character of Japan's regions: Hokkaidō, Tōhoku, Kantō, Chūbu, Kansai, Chūgoku, Shikoku, Kyūshū, and Okinawa. These are followed by portfolios that celebrate a country far richer than its most iconic landmarks.

Whether you are a devoted admirer of Japan, a lover of photography, or simply a curious soul in search of escape, this book will evoke in you the same emotions that inspired its creation.
