Frommer's Japan

di David McElhinney (Autore)

FrommerMedia, 2026

Frommer’s books aren’t written by committee, by A.I., or by travel writers who simply pop in briefly to a destination and then consider the job done. We use seasoned, locally-based journalists like David McElhinney, who lives in Japan, and has been published widely, covering the country’s extraordinary culinary and arts scenes, including manga and anime; Japanese history and religious traditions; jazz bars; onsens; and more.  He’ll steer you away from the touristy and the inauthentic and show you the real heart of the Land of the Rising Sun. Insider advice on the best travel experiences, like visiting Naoshima (Japan’s Art Island); exploring Kyoto's Gion District; making a pilgrimage to Sensoji Temple; skiing in Honshu and Hokkaido; or riding the Skinkansen Bullet Train.  Plus tips for navigating the country's lovely but less-traveled corners. In this guide: Where to find the best ryokan to spend a night, the most beautiful kaiseki meal, the best shopping in Tokyo, and the loveliest Zen rock garden. Opinionated reviews. No bland descriptions and lukewarm recommendations. And NO “pay for play”. No entity has paid to be in this guide—or any Frommer’s guide. At Frommer’s, we pride ourselves on decades of journalistic integrity. Exact prices listed for every establishment and activity--no other guides offer such detailed, candid reviews of hotels and restaurants. We include the very best, but also emphasize moderately priced choices for real people. Detailed itineraries for planning your trip to suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds) Compelling cultural information so that you’ll better understand the history, cuisine, and traditions of Japan Colorful photos and maps throughout the book, including a useful fold-out map. About Frommer's: There’s a reason Frommer’s has been the most trusted name in travel for more than 65 years. Arthur Frommer created the best-selling guide series in 1957 to help American servicemen fulfill their dreams of travel in Europe, and since then, we have published thousands of titles, become a household name, and helped millions upon millions of people realize their own dreams of seeing our planet. Travel is easy with Frommer’s.
