With bright colored photographs that seem to jump off the pages and insider tips, you will get to see the beauty of Japan in all her facets. While the book definitely covers the main tourist attractions, the writer doesn’t shy away from also showing you the lesser known parts of Japan. This book is both practical and inspirational.” –The Travel Tester blog
