Destination
Japan
Temples and tea houses in the same week as bullet trains and neon-lit crossings
Japan holds tradition and modern life closer together than almost anywhere else, with a tea ceremony in the morning and a shinkansen in the afternoon. Every region has its own character, from Kyoto's temple gardens to Hakone's hot springs.
We time most Japan trips around the seasons themselves, whether that's cherry blossoms in spring or the maple color of autumn.
