Hey, I would like to travel to Japan for 3 weeks in March. On my last trip to Japan I visited the following places: Tokyo, Nikko, Takayama, Shirakawago, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Fujikawaguchiko and Nagoya. I loved both modern Tokyo and the more rural Takayama and everything in between. On my next trip, I would also like to have a mixture of tradition and modernity again. Now I would like to explore Hokkaido and Kyushu in particular on my next trip.
- Which places, activities and sights would you recommend?
- Which citties to stay in?
- In particular: I would like to visit a nice ryokan with onsen in cold Hokkaido – do you have any tips that are a good mix of beautiful and affordable?
- And is it better to explore the north or the south first?
Right now I'm planning to land in Tokyo, then use the Shinkansen to get to Hokkaido. There I'd love to see:
Hell Valley
Blue Pond
Lake Shikotsu
A nice Ryokan with onsen (Tell me your Recommendations!)
Tomamu Unkai Terrace
My mission is to see a Shima Enaga in Real life!
Then I would do a domestic flight to Fukuoka. There I would like to see:
Beppu
Hashima
Takachiho Gorge
Hiraodai Limestone Plateau
Mount Aso Nakadake Crater
Then I would take the Shinkansen back to Tokyo, where I'll depart. I'm thinking of stopping in Wakayama on the way back to Tokyo for a night but I'm not sure about that yet. How long I'll stay at which place will I decide after my must-see-list ist completed. 🙂
I'm a woman (24) and traveling alone, if that's relevant. I don't dare to drive myself in Japan. I would love to hear some travel tipps from you, thanks in advance! 🙂
