Ancient Forest Canopy, Yakushima Island, Kagoshima

English

Stepped into the primordial forest of Yakushima in mid-summer — the canopy was so thick and the moss-covered trees so ancient, I felt like I'd slipped back in time. The humidity was intense, but standing under those gargantuan cedars, I understood why this island is sacred.
