Spring has well and truly arrived, with the much-anticipated cherry blossoms starting to blanket many parts of the country in a sea of delicate pink blooms. We cannot wait for the day everyone can enjoy this season in person again, but in the meantime we will continue to bring you travel inspiration and updates for a future visit. 

This month’s highlights include an insider’s guide to one of Japan’s beautiful national parks, a new video with VICE exploring the Tohoku region and part three of our Masters Series, where we explore the fascinating world of Japanese calligraphy.
