Explore Japan’s eternal creativity — from volcano-forged lands to traditions centuries in the making. Begin in Towada-Hachimantai National Park, home to bubbling springs, mountain peaks, and Lake Towada’s caldera. Sail out to Sado Island — once a place of exile, now a sanctuary. Venture to Oki Island for red rock formations and lush vegetation, then cross to Busan. Return to Japan, to explore Samurai traditions amid castles and gardens from Sakaiminato to Osaka.
