Kiyomizu-dera (清水寺), known more fully as Otowa-san Kiyomizu-dera (音羽山清水寺) is an independent Buddhist temple in eastern Kyoto. The temple is part of the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto (Kyoto, Uji and Otsu Cities) UNESCO World Heritage site.(It should not be confused with Kiyomizu-dera in Yasugi, Shimane, which is part of the 33-temple route of the Chūgoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage through western Japan.)

The Kurobe Dam (黒部ダム) or Kuroyon Dam (黒四ダム), Japan's largest dam, is on the Kurobe River in Toyama Prefecture on the island of Honshū. It generates electricity for the Kansai Electric Power Company. It stands 186 metres (610 ft) high and holds 200,000,000 cubic metres (260,000,000 cu yd) of water. Its construction, completed in 1963 at a cost of 51.3 billion yen, claimed the lives of nearly two hundred people.

A film, Kurobe no Taiyō (黒部の太陽; literally "The Sun of Kurobe"), starring Yujiro Ishihara (the late brother of Tokyo governor Shintaro Ishihara), recounts the drama of the project.

Amanohashidate (天橋立) is one of Japan's three scenic views. It is located in Miyazu Bay in northern Kyoto Prefecture.
Amanohashidate in an ukiyo-e by Hiroshige

A thin strip of land connects two opposing sides of Miyazu Bay. This sand bar is 3.3km long and covered with about 7000 pine trees.

It can be viewed from mountains on either side of the bay or it can be traversed on foot. Visitors are recommended to view the "heaven's bridge" by turning their back to it, then bending over and looking at it upside down from between their legs.

Near the southern end is Chion-ji, a Buddhist temple.

Also, on this peninsula is to be found the 'Isoshimizu' fresh water well cherished since the Heian period, which was selected for the 'Japan Good Water Category' in 1985.

James Cuno, president and director of the Art Institute of Chicago, walks us through the museum's Renzo Piano-designed Modern Wing. He explains how the addition, a "luminous box" that opened in May, creates optimal conditions for viewing art.(from McGraw-Hill Construction Video)
