As exotic as its graceful geishas, as quixotic as its mangas, Japan is one of the world’s most mind altering destinations. Honshu has both the neon overdrives of Tokyo and the tranquil Shinto shrines of Kyoto. Mount Fuji dominates the Hakone region, while unbelievably picturesque bamboo gardens draw you to Arashiyama. Osaka is always on the list of Japanophiles. The Nippon nation is also blessed with snow covered peaks, volcanic lakes, hot springs & pristine beaches in every direction. Each island has its own charm & more than one trick up its kimono sleeve to charm visitors.
