​Nature & National Park

Japan is a top contender for the most beautiful country in the world and has a huge diversity of natural sights to enjoy. Journey into the undisturbed Japanese countryside on a bullet train, and you’ll soon forget the Tokyo skyline receding in the distance.

Vast, diverse and dotted with awe-inspiring landmarks, rural Japan drops traveller jaws year on year. But it’s not only Mt. Fuji that entrances visitors – from the northern wonderland of Hokkaido, to the subtropical islands south of Honshu, Japan is a gallery of inspirational Eastern vistas.

If you’re looking to reconnect with nature and see something truly amazing, there are plenty of awe-inspiring sights you’ll be putting straight on your bucket list. From ice-blue pools in Hokkaido to the turquoise seas of Okinawa, with ancient forests and sand dunes in between, Japan holds myriad natural wonders. Although some may be more of a struggle to reach than others, they are all incredible displays of the power of nature that you’ll never forget.
