Now Japan make a lot of effort to promote traveling to Japan for forigners.
Speaking of Japanese traditional place, many Japanese would say Kyoto.
There are many shirines and temples.
Also, Japanese characteristics is enjoying each seasons and nature.
Japanese people used to enjoys seasons and they used to make haiku through the nature.
Now they doesn't have custom of making haiku, however they never forget to feel the change of seasons. This shows one of Japanese characteristics.
Thease are photos of Kiyomizu-dera which is World Heritage Site.
Rhight sidephoto is Kiyomizu's stage is very famous.
We Japanese say "Kiyomizu no butai kara tobioriru you" when we make very big decisions.
"Kiuomizu no butai kara tobioriru you" means "jump down from Kiyomizu's stage" in English.
So Kiyomizu influences our conversation like Japanese proverb.
If you stand at Kiyomizu's stage, you may make big decisions!

You might want to have some introductory text about what your blog is and what you are trying to do with it.
I agree that sightseeing, Kyoto, temples, shrines, nature and seasons are important to Japanese culture. But they are also broad stereotypes. You might want to look for deeper subjects that foreigners don't know much about. Or you might want to go into more detail about one of the things you mention.
Why the picture of the cherry tree now? A little early isn't it? That subject would be better taken up later in the spring...
This assignment is a challenge, but please take advantage of your position as a native anthropologist. I look forward to seeing the improvements in your posts in the weeks to come.
