Japan

An education in discovery: mixing ancient folklore with 21st century lifestyles. A compact and highly cultured country that has embraced the best of the West while preserving the greatest and often strangest traditions of the East. Safe, polite, well organised and a pleasure to explore from its giant, neon-lit cities to its rural hot spring resorts and scenic backwaters plus semi-tropical islands where you can scuba dive and snorkel or just relax on the beach.

Foodies will love trying simple dumpling dishes or dine in a ryokan or one of the many Michelin starred restaurants in Tokyo

Don’t miss: a cable car trip up Mt. Fuji; winter sports; cherry blossoms in spring; riding on a Bullet Train; quality shopping and eating in Tokyo; temples and shrines in Kyoto; hot springs in Kyushu. How fit are you? Join a guided group climb with an overnight stay at a mountain lodge. Reach the top in time for sunrise! Or want to learn more about the life of a geisha? Or watch a bout of sumo wrestling?

In the Wanderlust 2009 travel awards it was voted the top country to visit
