Destination Highlights


OSAKA
Osaka is a charming, relaxed city best known for its food, fun and nightlife – with some history and culture peeking through. Along with plenty of shopping and modern attractions, Osaka also has a historical side, the highlight of which is Osaka Castle.

OSAKA CASTLE
Osaka castle was once under the direct control of the Shogun, and the massive double moats and stone walls were a daunting obstacle for any would-be invaders. This history is still celebrated and remembered, as the fall of the castle corresponds closely with the start of the Edo Period – an altogether peaceful and prosperous time for Japan.

NARA PARK
Nara Park is one of the must-see areas in Nara City. The vast area covers 660 hectares and is renowned for its 1,400 free-roaming deer and world-famous temples. Feeding the Deer is an attraction in itself and they enjoy eating special crackers called “shika senbei" and will approach humans.  

KIYOMIZUDERA, KYOTO
Situated atop a small mountain on the east side of Kyoto, Kiyomizudera Temples offers a commending view of the city. It was founded in 780 on the site of the Otowa Waterfall in the wooded hills east of Kyoto and derives its name from the fall's pure waters. Kiyomizudera offers more than just a pretty view, with the experience of visiting beginning long before you reach the temple itself.
