Tokyo

Tokyo

First city is Tokyo for most international travelers. Tokyo have most easily accessible Airport so I think a lot of people flying into Tokyo. it’s the main capital of Japan and it’s where there are the most people or you can say most populated, you can buy anything in Tokyo from like super cheap stuff to most expensive stuff.

Kyoto

Kyoto

Kyoto is mostly famous for shrines, you can visit and it’s very old school Japan like if you think about Japan as a place of samurai or ninja. Kyoto probably the place it’s like whole temples and shrines historically, the capital was in Kyoto and then it got moved to a place called Edo and Edo is now known as Tokyo. So Kyoto is where the story capital is which means that’s where a lot of the temples were built during the era that was the center of the country. They have a different kind of food than Tokyo so it’s a little bit more refined it’s like other Japanese traditional cuisine.

Hiroshima

Hiroshima meets west side from Kyoto and Tokyo there is an island called miyajima island and it’s beautiful.

Miyajima also has deer so the Japanese deer in Miyajima in this other area called nada. Which is near Kyoto they’re a little bit magical and cute. Hiroshima famous for okonomiyaki. Internationally it is known as a place where the atomic bomb was dropped in World War two and so when you visit you can also visit the dome that was at the ground zero of that detonation.

Naoshima Island

Naoshima Island

Naoshima Island which located in Okayama prefecture, they decided to build Museum in this island so you can go to museum called Chi Chi Museum. Where you can see Monet’s painting you can see under natural light so there is no lighting but their floor is also marble white. There is also like bunch of different art installations so just spending a day in that Island it’s fun. There’s another island called Kashima they have another museum and there is a huge concrete art museum.

Okinawa

Okinawa

Okinawa it was such a different culture and it’s almost as a tropical island, it’s super different than Japanese mainland culture so it’s very interesting to visit. Okinawa was an independent Kingdom in similar to Hawaii it got colonized by Japan and is currently where there’s a US military base and so because of that it is a very separate culture and a very separate feel from the mainland. So it’s a good place to go to visit to experience and to know culture. It’s also the site of some beautiful music, okay now they have  really awesome
musical tradition, if you go out there you’re gonna find a lot of really unique culture that you’re not gonna get anywhere else in the world.
