Welcome to the official site of our documentary series
about one of the world's greatest photographers,
National Geographic's Michael Yamashita.
His lifetime of master work epitomizes Nat Geo's motto:
"to illuminate and protect the wonder of our world."

And just as he has captured some of Nat Geo's
most fabled stories and iconic photos,
this sweeping series - some 10 years in the making -
takes you on a journey from east to west,
and back in time, to centuries ago. 

In our series, join this legendary storyteller and prepare to be mesmerized
by some of the world's most visually stunning,
historically dramatic & culturally fascinating places.
And meet the people who symbolize past & present.

Here on this site, you can watch trailers,

we hope will change the way you see our world.
