The experience
Japan rewards the curious traveller like nowhere else - bullet trains that glide at 300 km/h, temples older than memory, and food that turns every meal into a small ceremony. This Golden Route threads the three great cities - neon Tokyo, imperial Kyoto and kitchen-of-the-nation Osaka - with Mount Fuji, a sumo morning and Hiroshima along the way.
