Hi everyone! I'm planning my first-ever trip to Japan this September. I've decided to go to Osaka and then travel around as I'm mainly interested in the Kansai area and Kyoto. So far, I have no concrete plans however, I wanted to ask for your suggestions so I can start making them. My main interests are photography (which I study), architecture, art, and culture (both Western and Japanese of course). For that matter, I would like to visit especially historic sights, shrines, interesting buildings, gardens, and even museums or galleries. For your idea, I have the JLPT N3 and am willing to say that I know a lot about Japanese culture, so there shouldn't be much of a cultural shock (hopefully). I plan to buy the regional JR pass in order to travel around the cities. Thank you for any suggestions!
