JAPAN
Welcome to the land of contrasts, Japan. Japan is 14,000 islands, though most people only ever visit four of them. Japan runs on two settings at once. Kyoto has temples and gardens built to be looked at slowly. Tokyo has train stations that move more people in a day than some countries have.
There are businesses here that have been run by the same family for over a thousand years. That tells you most of what you need to know about how things are done. Whether you’re exploring historic neighborhoods or zipping by on a bullet train, Japan is sure to leave a mark on your travel experience.
