The trip revolved around visiting famous temples and shrines, with the students spending their first day at Tenry��-ji and Kinkakuji. On the second day, the students visited Todaiji, the Nara National Museum and H��ry��-ji, and their final day was then spent at Fushimi Inari-taisha, Kiyomisu-dera and Sanj��sangen-d��.

While the students were met with both thunderstorms and extreme summer heat during the trip, they were able to visit many historical buildings representative of Japan, and also do some shopping. Overall, the trip was a success.
