A region-by-region guide to Japan

This 352-page guide combines area-by-area coverage with itineraries, mapped tours and practical travel information. Its scope extends from Tokyo and Kyoto to Hokkaido, Okinawa and other parts of Japan, pairing sightseeing suggestions with material on history, traditions, food, shopping and places to stay. The organization is geared toward trip planning: travelers can use the regional chapters alongside itineraries shaped around available time and interests, while maps and tours help structure visits. The book presents Japan through both its cultural context and its visitor logistics, making it a broad planning reference rather than a guide limited to a single city or type of attraction.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Travelers planning visits across multiple regions of Japan
  • Visitors seeking itinerary ideas, maps and area-by-area sightseeing information
  • Travelers interested in combining cultural background with practical planning
