Our laboratory welcome new exchange students from Italy: Simone and Francesca. We conducted together field activity in Nara prefecture, Japan, guided by Prof.Hirohide Kobayashi and Ricelli Laplace (D1). The aim of this activity was to explore traditional Japanese building techniques with wood and clay used in construction of temples. Activities included visit to historical building like Todaiji temple and the National museum. There was also the opportunity to explore local nature and the presence of Japanese dears that inhabit the park.
