5 things in Japan that need to exist everywhere
[Music] Looking for a place where every season brings a new adventure? Whether you’re a history buff, a nature lover, or a foodie, there’s something here that will capture your heart. Don’t go anywhere. Our top pick is something you won’t want to miss. Number five, N. A dazzling gem in Japan’s collection of world heritage sites is steeped in history that stretches back to the sixth century. Among its many marvels, Tadaii temple stands out as a monumental highlight. Legend has it that Emperor Shomu ordered the construction of Tadaii in response to a series of calamities and plagues, rallying millions of people to assist in its creation. Since its inception in 738 CE, Taii has been the home of the world’s largest bronze Buddha and remained the largest wooden structure globally until 1998. As you wander towards the grand entrance gates of Nar Park, expect to be greeted by wild shika deer, eager for a snack, you can purchase speciallymade biscuits to feed them. But beware, these deer can be quite mischievous. Number four, Hakonei. Hakonei is a great place to visit, especially if you enjoy hot springs, beautiful nature, and amazing views of Mount Fuji. Spending the night at a rioon or traditional Japanese inn is an unforgettable experience. Hakonei does a good job of blending modern things with its rich history. Back in the Edeto period, Hakonei was the gateway to what is now Tokyo. And you can still see the paths that travelers used to take on the old Tokaido road and at the Hakonei checkpoint. Number three, Mount Fuji. In spring, Mount Fuji is surrounded by beautiful sightes. From midappril to May, you can see 800,000 moss flocks flowers blooming near Lake Motosuko. The Fuji Shabbazakura Festival honors beautiful pink blooms with food vendors, a pop-up cafe, and even a foot spa where you can wash your feet while admiring the vista of Mount Fuji in the distance. In summer, if you’re up for it, you can climb Mount Fuji from July to September. If climbing isn’t your thing, you can drive up to the fifth station, which is about halfway to the 3776 m summit. Just remember to dress warmly even in summer because it’s much colder and windier at the top than at the base. In the fall, Mount Fuji is a great place to see Japan’s famous autumn leaves. Hakonei near Fuji is one of the best spots for this. A trip on Lake Ashi provides excellent photo possibilities, and it also serves as a means of transportation to the Hakone ropeway and the volcanic valley of Aakuani. In winter, there’s nothing like the clear view of Mount Fuji, but clouds often cover her peak for most of the year. People in Japan jokingly say that Mount Fuji is shy, but it’s really because of the temperature and pressure. Number two, Kyoto. Speaking of temples and shrines, Kyoto has over 1,600 of them. That sounds cool, but it can be a bit tricky to decide which ones to visit. Don’t worry, though. We’ve got some great suggestions. If it’s your first time in Japan, you should definitely check out Kiomiura Temple, Kingakuji, and Fushimi Anari Shrine. If you’re into Japanese gardens, the Kodaii Temple, Han Shrine, and Rioanji Temple are must sees. And don’t miss Sanju Sanjendo, where you can see 1,01 statues of Canon, the goddess of mercy. But Kyoto isn’t just about temples. If you need a break, there are plenty of other things to do. You can explore Niji Castle and the old imperial palace or head to the Nishien neighborhood to see beautiful kimono designs. You could even enjoy a meal with a real life geisha or try some tasty local food at Nishiki Market and the Fushimi Sake District. Number one, Osaka. Both travelers and locals love visiting Osaka Castle, where the famous warrior and politician Toyotoi Hideoshi once lived with his loyal samurai. The castle has been through a lot, falling multiple times due to battles and natural disasters, but now it stands as a museum that tells its rich history. The top level offers a great view of the city. The castle is surrounded by a park that’s home to 300 cherry blossom trees, which bloom beautifully in late March and early April. If you’re into shopping and good food, the bustling downtown area is the place to be. The Shins Saiibashi Arcade is filled with luxury boutiques, popular brand stores, and shops that sell highquality kimonos. At the end of this long street, you’ll find the colorful Doenbore Canal, which comes alive at night with hundreds of bright neon signs. Which of these amazing places in Japan would you visit first?
