It’s always so lovely to see a carefully planned trip come to life… especially when the photos start coming through and they look like this. 🇯🇵
My sister and her husband are currently travelling through Japan on an itinerary that takes in so many beautiful contrasts - from Tokyo and Kanazawa, through the Hida region, on to Kyoto, Hiroshima, Hakone and back to Tokyo.
These photos capture just a few of those moments: the beautiful gardens of Kanazawa, the bamboo paths of Arashiyama, the ornate gates of Nijo Castle, the famous torii gates at Fushimi Inari, the traditional koi canals of Hida Furukawa and the thatched-roof village of Shirakawa-go in the Gifu region.
Japan has such a special mix of culture, scenery, history and those little moments you just can’t recreate anywhere else.
Definitely one for the travel wish list.
