Cultural Holidays in Japan

Japan Cultural Holidays

Efficient, beautiful, structured, contrasting and mysterious: these are all adjectives that could be used to describe the unique culture of Japan. It is a fascinating blend of old and new, a place where ancient culture combines with cutting-edge technology.

Away from the excitement of cities such as Osaka and stunning Kyoto, this is a country of great natural beauty too, from the Japanese Alps of Central Honshu to iconic Mout Fuji. Transport in Japan is exceptionally efficient, especially the trains (the best way to travel), and its cuisine is now highly fashionable. All of this is set against a backdrop of spas, temples, snow monkeys and, in sakura season, the ubiquitous cherry blossom.

Kim Martin Cycling in Japan

There are many beautiful temples and shrines along the way, each with its own character and all are surrounded by gardens or woods. The cherry blossom (still plenty even though not at its peak season) and other flowers decorate the buildings and make the already scenic landscape stand out more. People are polite, things are organized, trains are always on schedule, hotels are clean and nice, and food is delicious. Really enjoyed the trip.

Chenbei Chang Highlights of Japan

An incredible journey! Every city had its own charm, from the vibrant streets of Tokyo to the peaceful beauty of Kyoto. The mix of history, culture, and nature was unforgettable, and the food was out of this world. A truly memorable experience, with a brilliant guide to match!
