Planning a trip to Japan? No doubt you’ve planned visits to key attractions in Tokyo,Osaka,or other major cities. Any major city can offer more enjoyable sites than you’ll have time to see. A number of travel agencies can provide lists of hotspots for shopping,nightlife and fine dining unlike any other place on earth.

Having travelled in large cities,and the countryside,I feel like sharing a few thoughts with first-time visitors to Japan. If you wish to have a true cultural experience then nothing beats visiting the countryside,where there are rental (出租) car companies specialising in serving tourists though no tour buses stop. Don’t worry about running on the “wrong side” as you’ll quickly become used to it.

Precautions (告诫) :YouMl need to take a ^personal adventure level” reading before starting this trip. Unless you speak some Japanese,communication will be very limited. Most Japanese do not speak conversational English. This is especially true once you leave the cities behind. Lodging,dining and even getting gas will take more effort. It was challenging but just as rewarding;I do suggest that others learn some Japanese first,though.

Benefits: Even if you travel for a short time in the rural country,you will have many exciting stories unmatched by any friends who stayed on guided city tours. The best part is --Ican't tell you what they’ll be. Do make an effort to communicate with those around you. You will find that as a whole the Japanese are very welcoming to foreign visitors. Along your country journey you’ll find people who have never met a foreigner and have many questions for you,shops selling items you have never seen and restaurants with short menus serving delicious Japanese food. It's these simple people you’ll meet that you’ll most remember.
