On a trip to Japan there are some stops that cannot be missed and, spoiler, we have them all in this itinerary. The first is, obviously, Tokyo , the very modern capital that reflects the frenzy and effervescence of the country; Kyoto , with its temples and historic districts; Hiroshima , reborn after World War II; Osaka , home of Japanese cuisine. This Collection version will allow us to take a journey between tradition and modernity without giving up comfort.
Our tour begins in Tokyo where we will be surrounded by skyscrapers and we will cross the busiest intersection in the world, but just move to Kamakura to be immersed in the peace that can be felt among the Buddhist temples and Zen gardens, not too far from the iconic Mount Fuji . Then we will take the Shinkansen , the high-speed train that has the reputation of never being late, to move to Kyoto, where we will visit other majestic temples, walk through the bamboo forest and cross the red bulls of Fushimi Inari . A step back in time to Hiroshima, another to Osaka and Himeji Castle , and then we stop in Nara to cuddle the famous deer walking in the city park. We will immerse ourselves in a culture very far from ours , whose timeless charm attracts travelers from all over the world, who come to these lands to discover its most hidden secrets. Will we succeed?
