When
to go to japan
Japan, while not especially large,
is surprisingly vast. Frigid winters in Hokkaido make the subtropical islands
of Okinawa seems worlds away.
Spring
& Autumn Season
In this seasons travelers can find
vivid autumnal leaves or, on the other hand, the iconic cherry blossoms that
seem straight out of a postcard. Plus, during these seasons, rainfall is at a
low, skies are clear, and temperatures are rather mild. Spring happen at March
to May while Autumn happen at September to November.
Winter
Season
If you are traveling to hit the skip
slops then this season is the best time for you to go. winter in Japan is a
time for snow sports and onsen hopping. The northernmost prefecture of Hokkaido
is undeniably the best place to hit the slopes, but areas outside of Tokyo such
as Niigata are only a Shinkansen ride away, and boast a number of great ski
resorts.
Summer
Season
Summer in Japan is typically warm
and humid throughout most of the country, but is also an ideal time for nature
expeditions like hiking. It's also considered the season of festivals.
Cherry
Blossom Season
For travelers determined to visit
Japan during cherry blossom season, the dates of bloom depend on the weather
conditions each year. From late March, trees in the warmer south begin to
bloom, but in northern cities like Sapporo, don’t expect to see any pink until
at least May. If you are staying between the Kansai and Kanto regions, the best
time to see blossoms is either the last week of March or the first week of
April.
As
for my opinion, the best times to visit japan is during winter because as an Indonesian
I’ve never had experience of snow before. So, it would be very nice to see it
while on vacation to japan.
