Tempura - N°23

TEMPURA Magazine was born in 2019. Its mission? To open the doors to a Japan far removed from clichés. Co-founded by Emil Pacha Valencia, Editor-in-Chief, Clémence Fabre, Artistic Director, and Olivier Cohen de Timary, Publishing Director, TEMPURA is a magazine aimed as much at lovers of Japan as at curious readers seeking inspiration.

In this issue:

• In Chamonix, we investigate a little-known chapter in mountaineering history: the Japanese mountaineers whose passion for the Alps, and for the people who live there, left lasting traces.
• We pitch our tent in Japanese-style campgrounds, where heated low tables coexist with meticulously engineered high-tech barbecues.
• Wildlife photographer Manabu Miyazaki has spent decades observing animals in the forests. We meet a man who has chosen patience, solitude and a life close to the wild.
• Philosopher Augustin Berque helps us understand the Japanese relationship to landscape, one shaped as much by contemplation as by harmony.
• We take you along an epic 210-kilometre trail through Shizuoka, where nature and culture intertwine at every step.

And plenty more surprises.
