Next Travel Location: Japan

Gia Lee (G9) Daechi


Want to travel to East Asia? Want to explore a country with deep culture and tradition? I recommend Japan as your next travel destination.

 

           First, I introduce Osaka, a famous city for its tourist attractions. One of the renowned tourist attractions is Universal Studios. Inside the amusement park, a section of the attraction is called the Super Nintendo World. There are many reviews from tourists who felt they were part of the real Nintendo World. You can take pictures with characters like Super Mario, Princess Peach, etc. If you want to feel or be part of a game, consider visiting this theme park. However, if you like quieter places like taking a walk and basking in the warm sunlight shining through the cherry blossom trees, I recommend taking a trip to Osaka Palace. The landscape is awesome but you should take notice of one thing. The design of the Palace has a bit of a twist, the outside of the Osaka Palace is created in oriental architecture but on the inside, it is structured closer to a modern-style building. Don’t be disappointed about that! The contrast of the construction makes the place more exquisite to visit.

 


           Second, I present Nagoya, a place to visit during winter. Well-known for its hot springs, you can see monkeys enjoying a warm bath in the hot springs. Close to the hot springs, there is the Jigojudani Monkey Park. Monkeys are found moving around freely and, are commonly found near homes and public parks. Their butts, red like chili peppers, are the trademark for visitors. Furthermore, one of Nagoya’s trending landmarks, Ghibli Park is one destination to travel to. Famous for its animations such as “Howl’s Moving Castle”, “My Neighbor Totoro”,

 

“Kiki’s Delivery Service” and “Spirited Away” directed by Hayao Miyazaki are displayed around the park. You can experience the places for instance misty forests, cozy homes, eccentric castles, and magical scenery that appeared in the movies in real life. You can enjoy the adventure and be part of the movie as well. If you enjoy this kind of attraction, I recommend this trip to the park.

 


           Lastly, Tokyo is the most famous city in Japan. Tokyo is the capital city of Japan, the busy city that invigorates a lot of sightseeing within the city itself. The Tokyo Skytree is a landmark in Tokyo. It is the highest building in Japan. It has an observation platform designed with a glass hall. You can see the sparkling night view of the city like street lamps, driving cars, and the twinkling building lights. If you want to leave precious memories, you may ask the working employee to capture you and your friends in a picture. There is a photo booth beside where people can access a four-cut photo room. After taking the picture, a working employee will guide you to print out the photograph. It will be a nice memory for you. In the same building, there is a famous tea shop where you can experience the traditional Japanese way of drinking tea. Japanese tea, also known as cha, has its own way of drinking. When you arrive at the store, an employee wearing traditional Japanese clothes, Kimono, will explain the history and tradition of Japanese tea. After listening to the explanation, you will see a cup of Matcha tea and flower cakes waiting for you. Just relax and enjoy!

 

           Japan has many landmarks that consist of its own culture and its style of architecture. If you are interested in Japan, this blog is your perfect opportunity to book a flight straight to Japan. Don’t delay!
