Japanese New Year celebrated at June.  Ends of Jan only those Chinatown celebrate CNY only.  CNY in Japanese are not public holiday. 

Japanese one whole year only 2 Peak Season
One at End of April Early of May ...7 Days ''Golden Holiday''
&
Japanese Bon Odori Season.  At End of August Early of Setember... 7 Days ''Golden Holiday''

Avoid Golden Holida at all cost...ALL COST.....you will never get any Shinkansen ticket , Air ticket.  All fully reserve to Japanese.  Foreigners Fxxx off.

You have to Avoid Taiwan & Korea Golden Holiday also  Because they are so closed to Japan.  For them going Japan is like Malaysian going Singapore only.  So Japan that time will be full of People. 

Other than That.....that all.....

Example...Why ends Jan early of Feb , Japan will alot people at Disney?  Those people 70% will be Taiwanese.  Due to CNY golden 1 week Holiday in Taiwan...alot Taiwanese will shoot out to Japan.
So you you guys say what is the Best time to Visit Japan?
Whole July + Early of August ...Summer Season....hottest season.  Guarantee no people everywhere. 
Or November.  Autumm Season. All people will working hard to preperation December X'mas and New Year celebration. November All japanese will work hard no time to play.

No China people during that CNY period?? I saw China people everywhere in KL, Singapore, Thailand during CNY.

May I know if tourist arrivals into Japan is affected by risk of radiation? Should tourists be concerned about the radiation levels?

Bro Regent,

Really that bad during their golden holiday? My travel date is exactly End Apr - Early May 2014. Hotels at Hokkaido under Agoda cannot be search on these dates. Airline schedule also unable to select on these dates But according to Japan Guide website, year 2014 golden holiday is not so favorable due to falls on Saturday and Sunday. Can I anticipate a lower crowd than usual?

For Mt Fuji view are Lake Kawaguchiko

Hi Guys!

If i could please get some information, I would dearly appreciate it. As I have read from the front page, I'm guessing that there are restaurants which do not serve pork and is deemed halal but without the JAKIM cert or even the HALAL logo being displayed and some people may be alright with that.

However, the group that will be heading to Yokohama, Japan next month might not be as liberal.    I hope that you guys and gals could help me in recommending some of the restaurants which are HALAL certified and approved. Below you would find more info:

Place of stay : Intercontinental Yokohama Grand
Group type : Doctors & Corporate Travelers
Meals : Dinner

I hope that some of you could share your experiences in finding HALAL food in your travels to Yokohama! Please do recommend me some! I hope you could separate the HALAL certified one from the HALAL but without the Logo one.

Thanks! Much appreciated. 

waaaa, RC in good mood, give nice map some more!
