Japan Budget Travel.

Visit destinations like Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Mount Fuji, Hiroshima, Nara.

Japan is a very modern country with extremely polite and correct people. The country is located on the ring of fire and has "learned to live" with volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis. When eating out you should try Japanese sushi, "udon" noodles and (strong) sake rice wine. There is a lot to see between Hokkaido, Kyoto, Tokyo and Okinawa, in any season.
