I have lots of tips and suggestions for Japan - it just depends on what you are interested in doing and where you are planning to go. Note that Winter is the one season that I have never visited Japan, but I certainly enjoyed watching the snow go by while catching a train in the Japanese Alps past Takayama in early Spring.<BR/><BR/>If you are interested in what to do with Osaka or Nagoya as a base see:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.allrite.net/webworld/taxonomy_menu/4/15?page=4" REL="nofollow">Osaka to Tokyo</A><BR/><A HREF="http://www.allrite.net/webworld/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=Japan2006" REL="nofollow">Photos</A><BR/><A HREF="http://travel.allrong.net/search/label/Japan" REL="nofollow">Japan related posts on this site</A><BR/><BR/>Tokyo as a base:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://allriteinasia.allrite.net/2007_04_01_archive.html" REL="nofollow">Tokyo and surrounds</A><BR/><BR/>I would also add Nikko as a daytrip from Tokyo - saw it on an earlier trip than the one above (we've been to Japan 6 times).<BR/><BR/>Some of my top spots include Tokyo's Shinjuku district at night, Kanazawa and Takayama.<BR/><BR/>A Japan rail pass is fantastic if you will be travelling long distances, even Tokyo - Kyoto return is worth it.allritehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04470337769944277343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748206359248547028.post-45611334968856489952008-08-23T14:31:00.000+10:002008-08-23T14:31:00.000+10:00hi, just wanted to let you know i really enjoy reading this blog! i find your comments really interesting and your insights much similar to my own when i travel- im off to japan for the first time flying jetstar in dec08. any tips or suggestions? keep up the great blogging!!<BR/>Much Appreciated, Amanda.adruce@une.edu.aunoreply@blogger.com
