For many avid travellers Japan is an obvious bucket list destination, but since the pandemic, travel to the country has been restricted, making it extremely difficult for tourists to enjoy the beauty of Japan at their leisure.

Fortunately, the country has lifted travel restrictions the past month and made it possible to start planning trips again and there’s plenty of places not to miss if you are keen to see all sides of Japan’s beautiful history.

Looking4.com has gathered search data from the past month[1] to see which parts of Japan tourists are most eager to visit.
