Japan Overview
Japan is heavily marked by a long lineage of indigenous cultures, influenced by China and Korea, particularly in terms of government structure. Japan, however, maintains a unique cultural identity, with a strong emphasis on harmony, respect, collectivism and conflict avoidance.
This cultural identity is evident in practices such as tea ceremonies, kimono wearing, traditional arts like calligraphy and origami, and a deep reverence for nature, as seen in Shintoism, one of the country’s primary religions.
Japan experiences four distinct seasons, with climates that vary significantly by region. Ranging from subarctic in the north, to subtropical in the south, summers are typically hot and humid, while winters are cold with heavy snowfall in mountainous regions.
Japan is one of only two countries, whose food has UNESCO cultural heritage status. From the delicate art of sushi and sashimi, to the comforting warmth of ramen, each Japanese dish tells a story of tradition and innovation.
Whilst many Japanese dishes are known and loved worldwide, a trip to Japan offers a chance to taste the most authentic versions of the food you may be familiar with, or discover local dishes you may never have heard of.
The most pleasant weather occurs during spring and autumn. Spring (March - May) is when the Cherry Blossoms are in bloom, whereas Autumn (September - November), is when the leaves change colour and create vibrant scenery across the country. Whilst both seasons offer pleasant weather and beautiful visuals, they can tend to be quite crowded.
