1. The Unique Japanese Culture
Culture in Japan is very prominent, making people very traditional and respectful of rules and others around them. Japanese culture permeates the entire country. From within the grounds of ancient shrines and temples, all the way to the trendy streets of Harajuku and Omotesando.... and to a friendly izakaya.
2. Flourishing Nature
Depending on which season you choose to visit, the natural backdrop will change. From the delicate pinks of cherry blossom season in spring to the fresh greens of summer, followed by the golden hues of autumn and the mountains covered in powdery snow in winter. Each season in Japan offers a unique natural experience and several activities, from cultural to sporty.
3. Art & Design
Japan offers a variety of art, design, and architecture scenes. Japanese cities offer visitors a complete view of their artistic, design and architectural history. From the ancient to the avant-garde, from temples to modern buildings, which grow in height as time passes due to limited land space.
4. Technology
Since at least the 1960s, Japan has been synonymous with technology. In the ensuing decades, the country’s international reputation for electronics, the automotive industry and robotics has grown exponentially. Japan has some of the biggest electronics conglomerates in the world and some of the most cutting-edge innovations.
5. Public Transport in Japan
Public Transport in Japan is commonly used both within cities and for travel throughout the country. With major cities having underground trains running regularly, it is possible to travel between neighbours quickly and easily.
And, of course, there are the Shinkansen bullet trains! Very efficient and fast, they offer riders a unique travel experience. They are operated by Japan Railways and cover the entire country, travelling at speeds of up to 320 km/h. It is possible to discover Japan via nine Shinkansen lines that connect the most prominent cities, like Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka, and Kyoto. Trains on the Shinkansen network are safe, comfortable, and always arrive on time.
