Tokyo is known for iconic landmarks like the Tokyo Skytree and Shibuya Crossing. It’s famous for its sakura tree-lined streets, shrines, temples, otaku culture, fantastic cuisine, and world-class transport system. It’s a quirky city that combines millennia-old traditions with futuristic technology.
Hakone is famous for its hot springs, natural beauty, and view across Lake Ashinoko of nearby Mount Fuji. Furthermore, it’s one of the most popular destinations among Japanese and international tourists looking for a break from Tokyo.
Kyoto is mainly famous for its hundreds of temples and shrines. In total, there are over 1,600 Buddhist temples and 400 Shinto shrines. In Japan, there are two main religions – Shinto and Buddhism. They co-exist, and many Japanese follow both faiths in their day-to-day life.
Osaka is best known for its excellent casual food and outgoing locals. It’s arguably Japan’s street food capital and most famous for snacks, including takoyaki and okonomiyaki. It’s also renowned for its fun, extroverted people who make eating and drinking in the city an unforgettable experience.
