Of course there are specifically Japanese aspects but more often than not there is Chinese influence. Architecture, writing, religion, dress, food, everywhere.

What I disagree with is the idea that China is the "Greece of Asia" which is laughable at best. How exactly has the Chinese had a major influence on Japanese religion, architecture and dress? Chinese food shares the table with numerous cuisines from across Asia, and Chinese writing is also shared with Japanese, Western and Indian writing influences as well.
