The endless expanses of Hokkaido. The hectic big cities and exotic places of pilgrimage on the main island of Honshu. The southern flair of the island of Kyushu and the tropical archipelago of Okinawa. Cherry blossoms, sacred buildings and Mount Fuji. White-painted geishas, the famous tea ceremony and sumo wrestlers. Japan is all these and much more.
The second-largest industrial nation in the world offers fascinating contrasts and dreamlike landscapes. No other travel destination manages to combine so many secrets of an ancient culture with a modern high-tech world.
