In Kochi, don a helmet and headlamp and explore the cavernous natural wonder known as the Ryugado Cave, a National Natural Monument.

THE EMPIRE OF THE RISING SUN - JAPAN
In the all-digital era in which it excels, the Empire of the Rising Sun presents a contrasting face: ultra-modernity rubs shoulders with ancestral culture. During a cruise in Japan, this double face is found at every moment. Vestiges of medieval Japan, temples, decorations and ancestral rites face futuristic cities and urban centers open to the world.
Neon-bright architecture and pink cherry blossoms vie for attention amid the colourful Harajuku district and traditional kimonos. With the Best Selection of Japan cruises you can be assured that BlueSun will lead you to colours, cultures and flavours that define this amazing country.
Going back in time, finding peace, living to the rhythm of big cities… A trip to Japan is an enchantment where the spiritual aura of certain places and the refinement of a way of life unique in the world mingle.
