About Japanese Kumano Kodo Календар

В Япония има много стари пътища като Ошу Хайуей, Токайдо, Санйо Хайуей, Кумано Кодо, Нагасаки Хайуей и Миноджи. Въз основа на тези теми дизайнерът е създал цветист корпоративен календар с мотиви от местни фестивали и култура. Сред тях Кумано Кодо се използва като поклоннически път към Кумано от около 908 година и все още е в употреба днес. Той е обект на световното наследство на ЮНЕСКО.

Unique Properties
I drew an illustration for a corporate calendar (Nippon Paint) with the motif of an old Japanese highway.
There are many old roads in Japan such as Oshu Highway, Tokaido, Sanyo Highway, Kumano Kodo, Nagasaki Highway and Minoji. With these themes, we have created a colorful corporate calendar (Nippon Paint). Among them, the Kumano Kodo is located in the center of Japan and was used by the Kumano worship (a place of nature worship) since the Heian period (around 908), and is still maintained by people (also used as a living road). It is a highway that is carefully used. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.
I finished it in one picture with the motif of "Nachi Fire Festival" and "Nachi Falls" which are the festivals of Kumano Shrine that live in life.

It is located in the center of Japan and has been used by the Kumanosanzan (a place of nature worship) since the Heian period (around 908). It is a highway. I finished it in one picture with the motif of "Nachi Fire Festival" and "Nachi Falls" which are the festivals of Kumano Shrine that live in life.
