| Top Tip | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Hiroshima is a bustling metropolis with a tragic history and a visit to the ruins of the A-Bomb Dome building, one of 11 structures left partially standing after the nuclear bomb blast on 6th August 1945, leaves a horrifying reminder of the destruction of nuclear war. |
| 2 | Travelling by Shinkansen (bullet train) is an absolute buzz, reaching speeds of up to 270km per hour! |
| 3 | In the hot spring region of Hakone, take a boat across Lake Ashino-ko followed by a picturesque cable car journey over the surrounding mountains. You may be lucky to sneak a peek at a postcard view of Mt Fuji looming in the distance. |
| 4 | While in Tokyo, head to the Shinjuku region and visit 'Omoide-Yokocho' - an alley lined with wooden shacks selling Yakitori & cold beer. A fantastic remnant of post-war Tokyo - stop by around 7pm for some nostalgia! |
