A week immersed in Japan's seasonal splendour, timed to enjoy the soft pink glow of late cherry blossom season. Beginning in South Korea, surrounded by historic Buddhist temples and illuminated night markets, first reach Kanazawa’s garden-decorated, samurai city — dominated by Kanazawa Castle. Chase the blossoms north to Aomori where Hirosaki Castle waits below scenic Mount Iwaki. Cross to Hakodate and Hokkaido, before heading south to Tokyo’s electric streets.
