Staying at a ryokan, a traditional Japanese inn is a cultural experience that can't be matched anywhere in the world and is often the highlight for many visitors to Japan. Only at a ryokan can you don a yukata and relax at a low table on tatami flooring to be served a traditional multi-course meal of locally sourced, seasonal ingredients known as kaiseki-ryōri, Japan's haute cuisine.  Aomori Prefecture The northernmost prefecture on Japan's main island is known for its abundant natural scenery, summertime Nebuta festival and apple production. Close to the historic city of Hirosaki is KAI Tsugaru, a hot spring ryokan where you can admire the changing seasons from apple-scented baths fed by Owani Hot Spring and indulge in kaiseki featuring Oma tuna, a local delicacy known as the “black diamond”. Tochigi Prefecture Encompassing part of the cedar-filled Nikko National Park is Tochigi, a prefecture north of Tokyo that is home to UNESCO World Heritage Site, Nikko Toshogu, an elaborate gold-encrusted shrine honouring the first shogun military dictator. Whilst you can explore the many natural attractions both in and surrounding Nikko National Park, history lovers will enjoy visiting Edo Wonderland, a Japanese cultural theme park in Nikko that showcases the life and culture of the Edo period. Shizuoka Prefecture Sharing Mount Fuji, Japan's tallest peak with neighbouring Yamanashi Prefecture, Shizuoka lines the pacific coast of Japan and is known for its hot springs, scenic trails, and beautiful beaches. It has three KAI properties: KAI Enshu, KAI Ito and KAI Anjin. A natural attraction that can't be missed in this prefecture is Mount Omuro, a perfect cone-shaped extinct volcano near the eastern coast of the Izu Peninsula.  Yamaguchi Prefecture A prefecture in Japan's Chugoku region, Yamaguchi's capital goes by the same name and is known as “The Kyoto of the West” with a history dating back to the 14th century. Yamaguchi is famous not only for its fugu pufferfish cuisine but many historical and natural attractions including Japan's largest limestone cave, Akiyoshido.   Villa Resorts to Unveil Its Luxury Flagship Resort Villa Haven Later This Year Villa Resorts has announced that its luxury flagship resort, Villa Haven, is slated to open later this year.
