We’re delighted to announce the release of our latest education resources, which can be used to teach about religion in Japan. Our brand new video Let’s Visit a Shrine and a Temple allows students to take a tour of both a Shinto shrine and a Buddhist temple, without leaving the classroom! 

The short video can complement general teaching about Japan, or be used to study religion in Japan in more detail. Take a look now!
