Tourism Exchange Japan and Nara Visitors Bureau hosted Inside Japan Tours and DISCOVA Japan in Nara prefecture last week on a product development trip, showcasing highlights of the region. The famil, organised by Sydney marketing agency Gate 7, included many of Nara’s undiscovered gems such as the retro hot spring town of Dorogawa Onsen, the isolated samurai mountain village of Totsukawa and the World Heritage Listed Kumano Pilgrimage Route, Kohechi. The group have been busy visiting fascinating shrines and temples, scaling Indiana-Jones style suspension bridges, cruising through ancient gorges and even trying out a riverside ‘tent sauna’!
