| Summary |
"As geographically diverse as it is culturally rich, Japan holds prime place on most travellers' bucket lists. Where you want to slurp streaming ramen in Osaka, lose yourself to Tokyo's neon nightlife, or bathe beneath fluttering snow in onsen, an abundance of spellbinding experiences awaits. This fully updated Rough Guide will see you learn your ryokan from your capsule hotels, samurai legends from fallen emperors, the art of sake-making from traditional tea ceremonies--and lots more."--Page 4 of cover. |
