Recommended Spots for Family Trips

Spectacular View of Colorful Flowers in Full Bloom Recommended for Spring

Spring is the season when all the flowers bloom all at once. Spectacular views only available at this time of year can be enjoyed at famous flower spots, such as the cherry blossoms on Mt. Yoshino in the Kansai region, the tulips in Huis Ten Bosch in Kyushu, and the rapeseed fields along the Isumi Railway in the Kanto region. Hands-on tourist attractions such as strawberry picking farms and ranches are also popular with children.

Reconnecting With Nature Recommended for Summer

During summer vacation, you want to stay cool and have fun. Okinawa, with its abundance of marine activities, and Lake Biwa, where you can enjoy lake bathing and water sports, are perfect destinations for such families. We also recommend summer resorts such as Karuizawa, Nasu, the Shinshu Highlands, Hokkaido, and Izu, where you can enjoy nature and hot springs.

Fully Enjoy the Blessings of the Season Through Food and Experiences Recommended for Autumn

Horumon refers to internal organs like the stomach, intestines, liver, and heart. These cuts, such as heart (hatsu), tripe (mino), hachinosu, and senmai, are popular for their crunchy and juicy texture. Start grilling from the skin side, flip it over as soon as it browns, and cook it thoroughly until it stops shrinking to bring out its full flavor.

Relax in a Hot Spring After Playing During the Day Recommended for Winter

Speaking of winter fun, there are hot springs and snow activities. In Hokkaido, Tohoku, Nagano, and Niigata, there are accommodations where you can enjoy both snow activities and hot springs. Stargazing with your family is also recommended in the clear air in Fukushima, Nagano, Yamanashi, Okayama, and Oita.

Recommended for Family Trips is to do “Tabiiku”

``Tabi-iku’’ means encouraging the growth of children’s minds and humanity through travel. For example, the experience of trying skiing for the first time while on a trip will foster a child’s curiosity and spirit of challenge, and will become a cherished memory for the child with his or her family. Travel education, which encourages such ``experiences that can only be had while traveling,’’ is said to have the effect of ``deepening the bond between parent and child,’’ ``expanding the child’s potential,’’ and ``broadening the child’s horizons,’’ especially when it comes to understanding language. It is said that the age of 3 to 9 years old, when children start learning, is suitable for travel education. Being creative in choosing your travel destination can also increase the effectiveness of your travel education. On your next family trip, why not consider traveling to a place where you can experience nature or include a harvest experience?
