If you have never had the opportunity to travel to Japan, but you’re thinking it’s next on your list – or even if it’s a dream destination – I can tell you first hand, it’s a stunningly beautiful country with so much to see. From the sparkling big city lights of Tokyo to the Bamboo Groves of the countryside, the beauty and grandeur of Japan will make you want to stay forever. Incredibly kind people and a culture so deeply rooted in history, makes visiting an epic and, for many, a life-changing experience. Our family has been lucky enough to spend some time in this lovely country, so here’s a few things to do in Japan, if you’d like to see.
