It\u2019s possible to find cheap flight deals to\/from Osaka International Airport, so it\u2019s not uncommon for first time visitors to start or end their trip in Osaka, instead of Tokyo.<\/p>\n<p>Osaka is a vibrant and lively city with a lot of personality. But the one thing that Osaka is most well-known for is its delicious food, especially the street food. The locals in Osaka are also very friendly, and the vibe is slightly more laid-back than other large cities in Japan. The nightlife is also fun and energetic, with lots of bars and clubs to explore.<\/p>\n<h2>Kyoto<\/h2>\n<p>Located just 2.5 hours Shinkansen ride from Tokyo, Kyoto is usually the number one destination on most travelers Japan itinerary. Kyoto is a beautiful city with a mix of traditional and modern vibes. It used to be the capital of Japan for over 1,000 years, so there\u2019s a lot of history and culture to explore. You\u2019ll find stunning temples and shrines all over the city, along with beautiful gardens and parks. The food scene is also incredible, with an eclectic mix of delicious Japanese dishes to try.<\/p>\n<h2>Tokyo<\/h2>\n<p>Spending some time in Tokyo is a no-brainer. This is because Japan\u2019s two main international airports (Narita International Airport and Haneda International Airport) are both located in Tokyo and the vast majority of international visitors arrive at one of these two airports.<\/p>\n<p>Tokyo is a great place to get a taste of modern Japanese culture. One of the first things you\u2019ll notice about the city is its towering skyscrapers, colourful neon lights, and lively nightlife.<\/p>\n<p>But beyond the city\u2019s modern facade, you\u2019ll find a rich cultural heritage that is worth exploring.<\/p>\n<p>Tokyo is also known for its incredible food scene. From sushi to ramen to tempura, there\u2019s no shortage of delicious dishes to try. We highly recommend taking a Food Tour in Shibuya to sample some of the amazing delicacies on offer in Tokyo.<\/p>\n<h2>Hakone<\/h2>\n<p>Hakone is a beautiful mountainous region just 1 hour train ride south of Tokyo, and it\u2019s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a day or two. It\u2019s famous for its natural hot springs (onsen), which are perfect for relaxing and soaking in after a long day of exploring. Nature-lovers will be right at home in Hakone as there are beautiful gardens, waterfalls, hiking areas, and even an active volcanic valley to explore. Culture buffs will love the museums, shrines, and quaint villages.<\/p>\n<h2>Hokkaido<\/h2>\n<p>Die Ureinwohner Japans, die auf der n\u00f6rdlichsten der vier Hauptinseln leben, hei\u00dfen Ainu. Nach genetischen und anthropologischen Untersuchungen sind sie die direkten Nachfolger der pr\u00e4historischen J?mon-Kultur, deren Angeh\u00f6rige in der Zeit von 14.000 v. Chr. Bis 300 v. Chr. in Japan lebten. Das Wort Ainu bedeutet \u00fcbersetzt \u201eMensch\u201c, heute nennen sich die Indigenen gerne auch Utari was in der Ainu-Sprache \u201eKamerad\u201c bedeutet.<\/p>\n<h2>Japan Rail Pass<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/en-US\/activity\/1420-7-day-whole-japan-rail-pass-jr-pass\/\">Japan Rail Pass<\/a> for Whole Japan, also known as the JR Pass, is a transportation pass specifically made for foreign visitors to have seamless access to multiple trains and local buses throughout the country via the extensive transportation network operated by the Japan Railways Group.<\/p>\n<p>The JR Pass for Whole Japan is available for durations of 7, 14, or 21 days, giving you more flexibility and convenience throughout your Japan trip.<\/p>\n<p><small><strong>Why do I blog this?<\/strong> I do not want to lose track on this.
