Japan is one of the most visited destinations in the world and leaves no one indifferent. Whether for its social or cultural contrasts, every day in Japan is a day of discoveries, and it is difficult to list the reasons why to travel to this country. You can come to discover the tropical beaches of its islands, for its ultramodern cities, for its fields full of rice, for its cherry blossoms in spring, for its mountains, for its castles, for its snowy landscapes, and its magnificent autumn colors. In Japan, ancestral and innovation coexist in perfect harmony. Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples will be the first places where the traveler will maintain contact with Japanese culture. Religious buildings are present even in the most remote corners, as is the case of the shrines and temples of Nikko. Other spaces full of tradition are the manicured Japanese parks and gardens, walking through them we can perceive styles that have marked the historical periods of Japan. Shinjuku Gyoen, is one of the largest in Tokyo and surprises in the metropolitan center of the city. The garden of Kenroku-en, in Kanazawa, or that of Kokedera Temple, in Kyoto, are other paradises of gardening and nature in the heart of the city. Just outside the center of Kyoto, you can visit one of the most renowned forests in Japan for its beauty: the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. Tokyo is one of the most visited places in Japan, and it is full of lights, neon signs, neon lights, and more, but specifically in the Shinjuku neighborhood is where you will see the largest number of advertisements, to the point of becoming a wonderful attraction. Undoubtedly the viewpoint of the Mori Tower in Tokyo, which is located in Roppongi Hills, is one of the most wonderful viewpoints in the world, and you can not miss the opportunity to observe this unique view when traveling to Japan. Japanese gastronomy is another of the things that will not leave you indifferent. While sushi is possibly the most famous dish in Japan, there are many food alternatives to choose from, like Soba noodles, Yakiniku barbecue, Tempura, Sukiyaki, Yakitori the Shabu Shabu and noodle soup.
