Ask HN: Recommendations for Visiting the Japanese Countryside
15 by ciconia | 8 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN folks! My 15-year old son and I are going to visit Japan over the winter holidays. We're planning to start our trip in Fukuoka, then slowly work our way north until we arrive in Tokyo, where we'll spend the last 2 days of our trip, then fly back home. We'd like to visit the Japanese countryside, to do some trails and maybe even some ski, and experience the Japanese life away from the big tourist attractions. Would you have any recommendations on places that are somewhat off the beaten path, but worth visiting? We'd be really grateful for any pointers. Cheers!
