This two-disc package, which includes Blu-ray, captures the natural beauty of Yakushima, one of Japan's most powerful spots, where primitive charm remains strong, with immersive nature sounds and high-definition footage.

The CD includes the chirping of wild birds that can be heard around the Jomon Cedar, Sandai Cedar, and Wilson Stump, as well as the sounds of a babbling brook flowing nearby, as well as the sounds of Oko Falls, one of Yakushima's largest waterfalls, and the waves of Nagata Inakahama, known as a nesting ground for loggerhead turtles. The Blu-ray Disc not only features Yakushima's main attractions, such as the impressive Jomon Cedar, Shiratani Unsuikyo Gorge, and the giant Tofu Rock, but also allows you to enjoy the sights of the island's charming animals.

This product is an updated version of "Yakushima" (CD+DVD/DLNV-909-10) released in 2007. The CD has the same content as the 2007 release. The Blu-ray Disc has been re-edited with new footage added. You can enjoy clearer, higher resolution images.
