Japan Heritage
Japan is a place of ancient gods and customs, but is also the cutting edge of cool modernity. High- speed trains whisk you from one end of the countryto anotherwith awe-inspiring punctuality. In the suburbs of a sprawling metropolis, you can catch sight of a farmer tending his paddy field, then turn the corner and find yourselfnext to a neon-festooned electronic games parlour. One dayyou could be picking through fashion in the biggest department store on earth, the next relaxing in an outdoor hot- spring pool, watching cherry blossom or snowflakes fall, depending on the season.
Northern Honshu sees surprisingly few visitors, but its sleepy villages and nicely laid-back cities deserve to be better known. The Golden Hall of Hiraizumimore than justifiesthe journey, and can be easily combined with the islet-sprinkled Matsushima Bay or rural TÅno. The region is also known for its vibrant summer festivals, notably those at Sendai, Aomori, Hirosaki and Akita, and for its sacred mountains including Dewa-sanzan, home to a sect of ascetic mountain priests, and the eerie, remote wastelands of Osore-zan. For obvious reasons Hiroshima is the most visited location inWestern HonshÅ«. On the way there, pause at Okayama to stroll around one of Japan's top three gardens, KÅraku-en, and the appealingly preserved Edo-era town of Kurashiki. The beauty of the Inland Sea, dotted with thousands of islands, is best appreciated from the idyllic fishing village of Tomonoura, the port of Onomichiand the relaxed islands of Nao-shima, Ikuchi-jima and Miya-jima.
