About Little Japan Guide
Little Japan Guide helps travelers and Japan fans plan their trips with practical, up-to-date details, starting with the Kansai region: Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, and Nara.
What Makes This Site Different
- I live in Kansai, in Hyogo Prefecture near Osaka, so I focus on the local details that big travel guides cover only briefly.
- Prices, times, and steps are checked on official sources, and each article shows the date they were checked.
- When something changes often or can only be confirmed on site, the article says so and links to the official page.
What I Care About
- Explaining things in plain, easy-to-understand English, even if Japan is completely new to you
- Pointing you to free, official resources, such as government tourism websites, whenever they are available
- Recommending that you check with official sources or qualified professionals on matters such as visas, customs, taxes, and health
Who Runs This Site
Little Japan Guide is run by Keita, a Kansai local living in Hyogo Prefecture, near Osaka.
