When traveling through Japan, you must include smaller cities and town to see all that Japan has to offer. Beyond major cities in Japan, you can see the country’s beautiful natural settings and how the country is amazing in every way. These smaller towns are less English-friendly, but not at all unfriendly. In fact, the Japanese are among the friendliest in the world so long as you show them the same respect as a traveler and tourist.
