Golden Week is a long spring holiday in Japan that lasts from the end of April to the beginning of May.
Many people take the day off from school and work, and the whole of Japan becomes bustling with people going on family trips or returning home to their hometowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this time of year, tourist spots all over Japan are packed with people!
If you are traveling or sightseeing, please be aware of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shinkansen trains, planes and hotels get very crowded, so make your reservations early!
There are often long lines at restaurants, so it's best to choose a place that accepts reservations.
The roads will be crowded, so be sure to allow plenty of time in your schedule.
Hotel and flight prices may be higher than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though it may be crowded, spring in Japan is so beautiful and fun!
Here are some popular tourist spots during Golden Week.
Mt. Fuji area (Lake Kawaguchi, etc.)<\/strong>: Enjoy spectacular views of Mt. Fuji and nature.
Kyoto<\/strong>:The fresh greenery in the temples and gardens is so beautiful!
Osaka Castle Park<\/strong>: You can enjoy the historic castle and spring nature.
Naoshima and Awaji Island<\/strong>:An island in the Seto Inland Sea where you can enjoy the sea and art.
Okinawa (prefecture)<\/strong>: A resort where you can enjoy an early summer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It's convenient to use an IC card (such as ICOCA or Suica) on trains and buses!
I recommend going to the countryside or small towns as they tend to be less crowded than the big cities.
If you visit early in the morning or in the evening, there will be fewer people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It's also perfect for planning your trip! Be sure to check it out before Golden Week!
So, enjoy your wonderful spring trip to Japan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
