The Official Japan National Tourist Organization web site is your complete introduction to the country and its travel and cultural highlights.
Japan is both an adventure and an education.
Japan is a country where thousands of years of entrenched ancient ritual blend with pop culture and new technology. Japan is where every scrap of available space is put to good use, and yet there are still areas of extraordinary and dramatic natural beauty. Modern invention is rarely allowed to replace agricultural and old family customs. These engagements have taken the form of operating Tourist Information Centers in Japan for foreign visitors, consolidating reception facilities for these visitors, and promoting international conventions and trade fairs. JNTO supports its goals by conducting tourism-related research and publishing Japan travel literature and videos, as well as disseminating information on precautions for Japanese travelling overseas.
