As with all things, this is a country best experienced up close and personal. Delightful traditional crafts like ikebana, the art of miniature botany, still thrive, and grand landscapes like Mount Fuji, the symbol of Japan, still inspire awe from everyone who gaze upon it. There's a slew of cultural, culinary and scenic experiences just waiting for you. What better way to begin your love affair with Japan than to be filled with its sights, sounds and tastes.
When you vacation in Japan, by all means please experience "Japan." And you don't need to know much about it beforehand. For example, if you want to experience the spirit of Japan and fresh new experiences, then festivals are for you. In every part of Japan and in each season there are festivals or all sorts, ranging from the energy-charged to subtle and refined - whatever you seek. Then after the festival you can relax by soaking in a hot spring. And thus refreshed, why not try the tea ceremony? Noted for being a philosophical art form, you just might discover a new self. If you would prefer something more action-packed, then try one of the many theme parks, sporting events, or going shopping. Whatever your pleasure, the time you spend on a Japan vacation will certainly be unforgettable.
Japan abounds in accommodations, both western-style and Japanese. Types of accommodation vary widely in terms of style and price. You can choose to stay in the familiar comforts of a western-style hotel, or enjoy the comfort and personal attention of a traditional Japanese inn. By taking time to search out some of the nation's less-publicized types of lodgings, you're sure to find clean and comfortable places to stay that suit your pocketbook. Ask our Virtuoso Travel Specialists to help guide you to the best vacation suited for you.
A small island nation with a culture steeped in revered, ancient traditions, modern Japan has embraced all that the 20th and 21st centuries have to offer.
Here, industrial complexes thrive in perfect harmony with kimono-clad women and willow-draped temples.
Indeed, Japan is a place of ancient gods and customs, and the cutting edge of cool modernity. High-speed trains whisk you from one end of the country to another with frightening punctuality. You can catch sight of a farmer tending his paddy field, then turn the corner and find yourself next to a neon-festooned electronic games parlor in the suburb of a sprawling metropolis. One day you could be picking through the fashions in the biggest department store on earth, the next relaxing in an outdoor hot-spring pool, watching cherry blossom or snow flakes fall, depending on the season.
Amidst this setting of serene natural beauty, the past and present blend in perfect harmony in Japan.
