Nara 奈良
After a girls’ drinks night out and a delicious traditional Japanese breakfast we left to explore Nara park and the World Heritage temples of Nara.
Iga Ueno 伊賀上野
Still on the move we chose an old ninja village for our next stop. Looking for the famous Iga ninja clan we ventured through the Japanese countryside and the Mie prefecture towards the Iga Ueno city.
Osaka 大阪
Osaka was our midway stop between Kyoto and Nara. It’s a busy vibrant city with so much to offer visitors. You can experience so much here and from here explore all of Japan due to its great connections.
Fushimi Inari 伏見稲荷大社
On that same afternoon we took the train back to Kyoto and then to Inari to see the beautiful Torii gates along the path up to Mount Inari. This is us at Fushimi Inari Taisha
Arashiyama 嵐山
This time a longer weekend allowed us to finally visit Kyoto. This first half a day stop at Arashiyama excited our senses with some great nature views and delicious mochi.
Matsushima 松島
Another weekend, another trip. Matsushima was recommended by all friends in Sendai, so we had to try it out. Started with the wrong train, ended up with several amazing experiences.
Sapporo 札幌市
We finally got to Sapporo after a very long train trip and some sections of the train cut. Now we must find a place to sleep but the city seems to be totally booked for the festival.
