Every year, over 200,000 people hike all the way up Japan’s tallest mountain.

Whenever you visit a new place, it can be very reassuring to have a basic grasp of the local table manners and Japan is no exception. In fact, Japanese table manners are very important in Japan…

For generations, Mount Fuji has motivated restaurants & snack makers in Japan to create delicious things inspired by the volcano.

In Japanese, chopsticks are called hashi. Just like the many tableware rules in European dining, there are plenty of hashi-based rules to follow when dining in Japan.

They have a long, interesting history in Japan and are a rich part of the culture. But what is a geisha? What do they do? What is that history?

Every year, Japan goes into Kyoho grape pandemonium and the fruit appears in everything from parfaits, to puddings, to drinks.

Mount Fuji has been at the center of Japanese spiritual practice for thousands of years, and many famous folktales feature the mountain.

With a name meaning “mountain pear”, Yamanashi quite clearly has strong associations with fruit cultivation.

Chopsticks have been a part of East Asian culture for over 3000 years. Whether you’re in China, Korea, Vietnam, or Japan, it’s essential to know how to use chopsticks for a truly authentic dining experience.

With a view of Mt. Fuji, the vivid green rows of tea leaves of Makinohara are about as picturesque as it gets.
