Japan/china February 24-April 2/3 2027
Japan 3 weeks
Tokyo- 4 days, after (China ) 3 more days
Nagoya- 2-3 days
Kyoto- 3-4 days
Osaka- 3-4 days
Hiroshima/fukuoka- 2-3 days
China 2 weeks
Beijing- 4 days
Xi'an- 2 days
Chengdu/zhangjiajie- 3-4 days
Hong Kong- 3 days
I was wondering if this was a decent route to take for my first time in Japan and China. I would start in Tokyo take the trains to Hiroshima/fukuoka whichever I can take a plane to Beijing. Then fly back to Tokyo from Hong Kong. Also I prefer to spend my mornings doing tours like sightseeing, hiking and etc and other things in the city at night. I figure some of these locations I could use as a base. In China I'm open to taking planes instead of trains if it means I can have more time exploring. Any advice would be helpful like if you think I might have to many days for a location.

- Travel to two countries (Japan and Taiwan) or prioritise one country for a longer stay?I will be in Mainland China for work later in the year and I’m looking to take advantage of being in Asia before heading home to Europe. I spent two weeks in Japan last year (Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo and Sapporo) and had the absolute best time. I definitely want visit again and I’ve heard great things about Sendai so I’ve chosen to pair a few days there with some time in Tokyo before flying to Taipei, another place I’ve always wanted to visit. I’m pretty happy with my basic travel itinerary below, but I’m wondering if anyone has done a similar trip or thinks it would be better to prioritise one place instead of both Japan and Taiwan? I honestly don’t know if I’m unnecessarily trying to squeeze any time I can get in Japan and sacrificing more extensive travel in Taiwan… Saturday 10/10 - Travel to Tokyo from Beijing early in the AM. Arrive in Tokyo and take the bullet train to Sendai. Sunday 11/10 - Sendai Monday 12/10 - Sendai Tuesday 13/10 - Sendai/Travel to Tokyo later in the day Wednesday 14/10 - Tokyo Thursday 15/10 - Tokyo Friday 16/10 - Tokyo/Travel to Taipei later in the day Saturday 17/10 - Taipei Sunday 18/10 - Taipei Monday 19/10 - Taipei Tuesday 20/10 - Taipei Wednesday 21/10 - Taipei/Fly home in the evening submitted by /u/notveronicacrabtree [link] [comments]

- First time travel to Japan/Korea : 20 nights 6 citiesMy partner and I are planning a December 2026 trip to Japan and Korea. it’s a pretty big milestone trip for us and we want to make sure we’re planning it right before booking local flights and activities. We’re planning 20 nights across 6 cities: 1. Tokyo: 5 nights 2. Seoul: 4 nights 3. Busan: 2 nights 4. Kyoto: 3 nights 5. Osaka: 3 nights 6. Tokyo: 3 nights (back for Christmas) We’re flying in and out of Tokyo and doing Korea in the middle before returning to Japan for Christmas. December is totally intentional btw. A few things I’m unsure about: Is it really worth it to go to Korea for a week in between (we’re thinking it’s 2 for the price of one) Is 2 nights enough for Busan? Should we stay in Kyoto (3 nights) or base in Osaka and do Kyoto as day trips Anything we’re missing or would you restructure anything? Appreciate any advice thanks submitted by /u/Soft_Baby_6665 [link] [comments]

Never been in these countries before. Thanks ! submitted by /u/travel10red [link] [comments]
