DESTINATION Tokai
Served by the shinkansen between Tokyo and Kyoto, the Tokai region features both world-renowned destinations and local splendor
A quintessentially Japanese region, the prefectures that comprise Tokai mix ancient heritage, modern industry and stunning nature. Mt. Fuji, flanked by the hot springs of Hakone and the Fuji Five Lakes, is one of the world's most iconic peaks. Tokai both embraces the past and looks toward the future with World Heritage site Shirakawa-go and its thatched-roof cottages, the nation's biggest green tea plantations, Toyota Motor Corp. and Ise-Jingu, the most revered shrine in Japan.
