work & leisure week

Cherry blossom holds a special position in Japanese culture and we are so glad to be in Japan at the best time of the year, to appreciate the beauty while the cherry blossom blankets the country in soft, colorful splendor. We are in awe of the Akashi Canal Bridge and Kobe city night view from the night cruise. Experiencing the sake brewing history has also been a unique experience for us. On the last day, the team visited Kyoto for its priceless temples and shrines through the culture and history.
