Jour in Chinese / Japanese...

是旅途不是目的 is the English proverb, "It's the journey, not the destination", translated into Chinese.

不經旅途不成目的 is the English proverb, "The destination is nothing without the journey", translated into Chinese.

千里之行始於足下 is a Chinese proverb that means, "a thousand mile journey begins with the first step".

This proverb figuratively means, "big accomplishments come from an accumulation of little achievements made one by one".

This is the Japanese version of an ancient Chinese proverb that means, "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step".

Some will also translate this as a 1000 mile road starts with one brick (a small amount).

In this case, the real measurement is an ancient Chinese "li" or 里, which is romanized as "ri" in Japanese. It's about half a kilometer, so three 里 would be a western mile. A journey of 333 miles begins with a single step, just doesn't sound as natural.

Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

旅行 means journey or travels. It is sometimes used to refer to a vacation.

If you like a good adventure, maybe this is the word for you.

旅 is the single Chinese character, Japanese Kanji, and old Korean Hanja for trip, travel, or journey.

In older context, this could refer to an army brigade or a 500-man battalion from the Zhou-dynasty Chinese army.

This proverb means "Life is a Journey".

If this matches your philosophy, this might be the perfect Chinese calligraphy for you.

If you believe that life is a journey, this is a nice Japanese title for you wall.

人生行路 means "journey of life" in Japanese Kanji. The actual word order is more like "life (人生) journey (行路)" as Japanese grammar is a bit different than English.

Note: The "journey" part can also be translated as "road", so this is also how to say, "the road of life".

This Chinese and Japanese proverb means, "to have a pleasant journey", "sailing with the wind at your back", or as an expression to say, "everything is going well".

This Japanese proverb states that, "A journey of a thousand miles feels like only one mile". It is understood that in the proverb, this applies when going to see the one you love.

Note that the "mile" or 里 used in this proverb is an old Chinese "li" (pronounced "ri" in Japanese). It's not actually a mile, as the measurement is really closer to 500 meters (it would take 3 of these to get close to a western mile). Still, 1000里 (333 miles) is a long way.
