●Japan
There is no country in the world where the ancient tradition of the past dances so seamlessly in sync with the modern advancement of the present. Japan is deep rooted in honor and tradition; in your travels you’ll be inspired by the pride and devout dedication each person has for their craft—it will be evident in every interaction you have, every meal you enjoy, and every garden you walk by. But Japan’s eminence isn’t limited to long-running ritual; the country is one of the world leaders in technology and innovation, visually manifested through its sprawling metropolises, hyper developed transport networks, and world-class electronics.
Whether you’re eating sushi and singing karaoke in Tokyo, visiting the temples and bamboo forests of Kyoto, skiing on Mt. Fuji, or seeing the Snow Monkeys in Jigokudani Monkey Park, Japan will fascinate you at every turn. And don’t forget the beautiful pink cherry blossoms that cover the countryside in the spring! There might be no better blossom spectacle on Earth.
