Features: India, this ancient nation, is filled with so much mystery, and it also shares countless connections with our Chinese nation—there has been political, economic, cultural, and religious exchange between them for thousands of years. Like us, India has a humbled modern era and has walked through storms to reach where it is today. But what exactly are its ethnic customs, religious culture, economic politics, and so on? This is a whimsical Indian travelogue by the renowned Japanese stage designer Katsura Hotta. As he travels through India, he observes, draws, and investigates with a unique curiosity, resilience, and a probing nature, showcasing India's architecture, religion, history, and culture through the eyes of a different kind of Japanese person. His distinctive and meticulous words and illustrations immerse you in the experience.
