Destination Weddings: JAPAN
Japan is a fascinating country of contrasts - engaging culture & futuristic cities combined with ancient culture & stunning natural landscapes.
From the white sandy beaches of Okinawa, the hot springs of Hakone to the big excitement of Tokyo, each region of Japan has something special to offer.
With 17 UNESCO World Heritage Sites Kyoto, Japan is outranked only by Rome. The ancient imperial capital (from 794 to 1868) boasts about 1600 Buddhist temples, 400 ShintÅ shrines, a trio of palaces, and dozens of gardens and museums. A walk through Old Kyoto with alleys of traditional narrow wooden houses, raked pebble gardens and restaurant terraces along the River Kamo will fulfill your fantasies of Japanese structures and beauty. The cultural center of Japan is also a great base for exploring Osaka, Nara, and Kobe.
