JAM Hostel Kyoto offers a super affordable stay by the Kamo River

Clean, affordable, and in prime position by the Kamo River, JAM Hostel Kyoto gave me one of the most memorable stays in Japan.

Known as Japan’s geisha district, Gion is home to many of Kyoto’s traditional arts and culture, including the iconic Yasaka Shrine.

A small station in a scenic place, Kangetsukyo station offers serene walking trails and stunning views of the Uji River and Yodogawa Bridge.

The small humble town of Mukaijima is home to the iconic Yodogawa Bridge crossing over Kyoto’s beautiful Uji River.

Kushiya Monogatari is an all-you-can-eat restaurant that lets you make your own kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers) for less than 2000 yen!

Known for its awesome samurai museums and delightful local delicacies, Sendai is the place to immerse yourself in Japan’s shogun era.

I’ve said before that Japan is an anime society and I stand by my claim. FamilyMart’s stacks of collectible anime cards are living proof!

Nango Park is home to beautiful well-kept gardens and the iconic statue of Akechi Mitsuhide which stands strong outside the Kameyama Castle.

A 16th Century fortress built by Oda Nobunaga, one of the Three Unifiers of Japan, the Tanba Kameyama Castle Ruins still remain to this day.

Whether you’re an outgoing thrill-seeker or a reserved peacekeeper, there’s something you’ll love about Japan regardless of your personality!

Known for its scenic train tours through the mountains and boat rides across beautiful river valleys, Kameoka is simply a natural wonder!

When you think Osaka, you think Dotonbori! No city captures Japan’s nightlife quite like Dotonbori, known for its vibrant energy & good food!
