Japan : A Perfect Getaway for Everyone

Japan is a blessed country, which offers a variety of fantastic scenery throughout the four seasons . In winter it could not be any different. Despite the chill wind that shivers down to the soul, it is worth appreciating its beautiful places covered with snow such as the Ginzan Onsen.

The Ginzan Onsen is a famous and isolated city of hot springs in Obanazawa, situated in the mountains of the province of Yamagata. The city grew up around a silver mine, however, nowadays it is best known as one of the most beautiful onsen cities in Japan with a traditional and historic architecture lined up along the river.

In winter, the area is transformed into a perfect setting, worthy of a postcard. Whoever visits it feels like inside a scene from a Japanese period film. Incidentally, the place became nationally famous as scenery for the Oshin television drama. In addition, there are other attractions such as Shirogane Park and Nobezawa-Ginkodo (silver mine cave). Also worthy of mention is the Hirosaki Castle (Aomori).

Hirosaki Castle or Hirosakijō as it is also called, was built in 1611 by the Tsugaru clan, which dominated the western half of present-day Aomori province. Considered a National Treasure of the country, the castle is located in Hirosaki Park, a spacious public park of about 0.6 square kilometers with more than 2,600 cherry trees.

As we can guess, it is considered one of the best places in Japan for cherry appreciation during the hanami, one of the most celebrated festivals of the Land of the Rising Sun. But during the winter, the castle also reveals a unique and contrasting beauty.

These are just a few among the numerous excellent destinations which await all travelers to Japan and in order to have a natural feel of these sites, a Japan tourist visa is required.

The Japan visa stands as a major prerequisite for everyone who desires to visit the country, and in order to obtain it, the following documents must be provided:

  • Original passport which should be valid for six months after the date of departure.
  • A copy of your hotel booking confirmation covering not less than two nights
  • A Copy of your Certificate of Insurance
  • Visitor's information (visa applicant): First and last names, sex, date of birth, etc.

  • Confirmation copy of the flights of entry and exit of Japan
  • A genuine proof of individual income, which can be the declaration of income tax, bank statement or paycheck issued by the company where you work.

Upon presentation of the documents listed above, the Japan tourist visa would be issued to you by the Japanese embassy or Consulate. In addition, your application could be denied if the embassy finds any faults in your documents or general application process.
