We went during cherry blossom time which just added to our enjoyment of this fascinating country. It's a land of ancient cultures, austere traditions and groundbreaking technology. From the excitement of lively Tokyo to the sacred resting places of shoguns at Nikko. We feasted on local delights, ate Japanese banquets whilst dressed in komono's, slept japanese style at local Inns, tried out onsens. At Hiroshima, we met A-Bomb survivor: Keijiro Matsushima, saw the crane girl memorial. Explored the magnificent temples of Kyoto. Discovered ancient castles, lush countryside and fascinating feudal history whilst travelling around on the fabled Bullet trains
