A photograph of the Cryptomeria Japonica or Japanese cedar evergreen trees on a road most likely leading to Chuzenji from Nikko. These trees often reach 18 feet in circumference and 110 feet tall. Often used to construct Japanese houses, the timber is easy to carve and work with but rather brittle. Cryptomeria Japonica is often planted in temple groves and avenues in Japan. A rickshaw and its operator stand in the middle of the road.</div>
