"Calming Trip" "A trip to Japan to calm your mind."
No.202508
If you're going on a trip to get away from your everyday life, wouldn't you like to spend some peaceful time slowly unwinding your mind? Escape the hustle and bustle and be enveloped in lush greenery and silence, be moved by breathtaking views you've never seen before, or experience the rich lifestyle that permeates the land. A "journey to bring you peace of mind," where you can take a deep breath and reflect on yourself, may be what's necessary for a better life. In this issue, &Premium traveled to Hakodate, Bifuka, Morioka, Lake Biwa, Shimanto, Amakusa, Ishigaki Island, and more. We'll introduce beautiful Japan for themed trips, including immersing yourself in books and music, visiting pure waters and sacred sites, experiencing handicrafts, and enjoying the swaying of trains.
