Tokyo neon, Kyoto temples, bullet trains and a monastery stay on Mt Koya – this is Japan’s greatest hits, with a few surprises. Cross Shibuya’s scramble, soak in a traditional onsen, catch Mt Fuji views from Hakone and slowdown in quiet Buddhist shrines. From Takayama’s old town to Hiroshima’s Peace Park and Osaka’s street food scene, the big moments keep coming.
