japan an amazing culture

i´d like to go to japan because it`s a fantastic country with a very complex culture and a millennial tradition, the aspect that more like me is the iconographic, specially the religion iconographic culture in the temples and the ukiyo-e prints in the edo period, the study of material and formal aspect in the images of the ancient japan is a very interesting and offers a different approach  that you don`t usually see in occident art. I´d like to study in the kioto university and learn of traditional Japanese tattoo, but is badly locked at tattoo for the people japanese, because the yakuza(the big mafia in japan) usually has members with fully tattooed bodys so the society associates tattoos with the mafia, and the anime...the cultural industry of japan is the most interesting and successful in world all over, the manga combined the ancient and modern  japan making a unique and rich cultural expression that go out to the world.
