Experience wonders of Nara, Kyoto, Osaka & Shiga!!
- Explore KANSAI
- Nara is located almost in the center of the country and surrounded some of Japan's most important cities. Kyoto, Japan’s longest serving imperial capital, is a treasure house of Japanese tradition and culture: tea ceremony, ikebana flower arrangement, geisha districts, artistic crafts industries, and so much more. Osaka is one of Japan's largest cities and the center for commerce and entertainment in Western Japan. Shiga, home to Lake Biwa, Japan's largest fresh water lake, offers the visitor a seemingly endless range of beautiful and relaxing locations.
- Both Kyoto and Osaka are less than an hour from Nara by JR or other private railway services. Shiga is especially easily to get to from Kyoto. Don’t miss the chance to see the best of the wider Kansai region. There is so much to experience and do.
