Most tourists come for Lake Biwa, but Shiga prefecture actually offers many interesting activities and beautiful landscape. Here are the top 15 things you might want to do here.

Lake Biwa is Japan’s largest lake, located in Shiga prefecture northeast of Kyoto, and taking a cruise on the lake is a great way to experience its beauty.

One hour or little more train ride from Tokyo takes travelers to Hakone, a mountainous area between the Ocean and Mount Fuji.

Yokohama is underrated. It is a concentrated version of Tokyo where everything is close and reachable by foot. One place I like to spend time at is the Yokohama Bay Quarter.
