Nowhere on the planet do the modern and the ancient coexist more harmoniously than in Japan.

Kimono-clad ladies chatter on futuristic phones while blurring by on the fastest trains in the world; thousand-year-old Zen temples are dwarfed by skyscrapers, and neon signs are reflected in flooded green rice paddies. 

On the surface, Japan appears exceedingly modern, but travelling around it offers numerous opportunities to connect with the country's traditional culture.

• Spend the night in a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn), sleeping on futons and tatami mats, 
• Meditate with monks or learn how to whisk their bitter matcha tea.
• Enjoy the splendour of a Kyoto geisha dance
• Relax in the spare beauty of a Zen rock garden
• From hearty hotpots in the mountains to delicate sushi by the sea, Japanese cuisine has great regional variations. 
• Japan is over two-thirds mountains, with bubbling hot springs at every turn.
  • In the warmer months, there is excellent hiking, through cedar groves and fields of wildflowers, up to soaring peaks and ancient shrines.
  • In the winter, all this is covered with snow and the skiing is world-class. Meanwhile, in the southern reaches, there are tropical beaches for sunning, snorkelling and diving.

Japan is incredibly easy to get around and these days we're seeing and hearing more English all over. But if getting off the beaten track and outside your comfort zone is what you're after, you can have that experience, too.
