National Treasures of Japan

Alright kiddo, let me explain what national treasures of Japan are.

Imagine you have some really special toys you love more than any other toy you have. Now, Japan has some old and special things that they also love very much, and they want to protect these things so they never get lost or broken. So, they declared some of these old and special things as "national treasures".

These national treasures include things like ancient buildings, sculptures, paintings, and other important cultural artifacts that are really important to the history and culture of Japan. They are so special that people come from all over the world just to see them!

The Japanese people take good care of these national treasures to make sure they last a really long time so everyone can enjoy them. They don't let people touch them or take them away, because they are like priceless treasures that need to be kept safe.

So, that's what national treasures of Japan are: very special and important cultural things that are protected so they can be enjoyed for many years to come.
