A travelogue with pictures and text about the three ancient capitals of Japan - Nara, Kyoto and Kamakura. Different from general travel guide notes and essays, this book takes the historical process and cultural integration as the starting point, starting from Jianzhen's eastward journey, throughout Japanese history, and records the author's feelings during the trip based on the background of the times.
The relevant introductions to the scenic spots in this article are based on the author's personal insights during his travels. It was previously published on some personal self-media platforms. Now I have compiled some of the content and re-introduced it based on historical facts, hoping that more people can appreciate the charm of Japan's ancient capital.

This book is like a friendly tour guide, taking me to appreciate the charm of Japan's ancient capital. The author's words made me feel like I was actually there, walking on those quiet paths and listening to the sound of wind chimes. Moreover, the historical and cultural knowledge in the book also opened my eyes and I felt that I had a deeper understanding of Japan. This reminds me of the book "A Walk in Tokyo", which also takes us into the depths of a city in the same way. I think this book is very suitable for friends who like travel and culture. After reading it, you will definitely be more interested in Japan's ancient capital.
