US first lady Michelle Obama is wrapping up a visit to Japan with a taste of traditional culture in Kyoto, one of the country’s ancient capitals.
Michelle was visiting Kiyomizu-dera, a Buddhist temple founded in 780 on a forested hill overlooking the city and viewing a Noh performance today by local college students.
The classical Japanese musical drama employs elaborate costumes and stylized masks to symbolize roles of women, ghosts and other characters.
