Richly illustrated with hundreds of color photos, Japan Traveler’s Companion delves beyond the gaze of traditional guidebooks to uncover Japan’s rich culinary traditions, pop culture, Samurai heritage, and much more—bringing Japan to life and highlighting the most interesting places to visit in every region of the country.
Multi award-winning author Rob Goss introduces readers to his favorite places to visit in Japan, providing travel ideas for each region of the country, detailing the traits and traditions that define major destinations like Tokyo and Kyoto, along with lesser-known parts of Japan that few visitors get to experience—the contemporary “art island” of Naoshima, the UNESCO World Heritage flora and fauna of Yakushima, and the recovering Tohoku region which was devastated by the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, to name just a few.The book is available in hardback on Amazon.
