Japan in €460s-€570s rtn

Fun Fact: this garden in Kanazawa was one of the prettiest things I ever saw in Japan.

Yea, I know what you're thinking — Kanazawa!? What about Kyoto or Tokyo?

Well, Kanazawa's like Kyoto’s less crowded cousin: full of charm, history, and surprisingly great seafood! Besides one of Japan’s top gardens, you'll find samurai districts, a sparkling gold leaf obsession, and even a ninja temple with hidden traps.

Convinced, yet? Off you go cherish some lesser-known, underrated parts of Japan — local communities will be grateful :-)

FYI, most of these flights to regional Japan have a long layover on at least one of the legs. You can play around with multi city trips — just like this — if you don't feel like spending a layover day strolling around Shanghai or Beijing.
