Japanese Bonsai Trees have been a part of Japanese culture for over 1000 years going back to the Heian Era. Today, we'll visit the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum 大宮盆栽美術館 in Saitama to see some amazing tree! One in particular is a 1000 year old Ezo Spruce that has a lot of personality.

What does BONSAI mean?
The word literally means TRAY PLANTING.
A tree in a tray.

But the beauty of it transcends its size. It outlives its owner. A way Japanese connect with nature.
