Opening of our new food wholesale

I was recently able to travel to Japan with my family. I stopped in Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto, and Nara and set off with a large list of recommendations of places to visits and the various kinds of Japanese cuisines I was determined to eat. My days consisted of eating 4 + meals a day—with a multitude of snacks in between, of course.

In Tokyo, my aim was to visit as many areas as possible (often by foot) to see the nuances of everyday life and the changes of atmosphere and architecture. However, one of the things that no one tells you about Tokyo is that it is almost impossible to find your way around. I found it best to have an idea of where I wanted to go but to be completely flexible with what we did when we got there.

Hakone was really cool because it is a Japanese vacation town. It was surreal to be in a place where the people around you don't belong, but you are even more foreign. I stayed at an amazing ryokan where the fresh spring water was pumped up into a bath on your balcony. They also served a traditional kaiseki dinner and breakfast.

Kyoto was one of the most amazing places I have ever been. It has a myriad of temples and shrines sprinkled around the city. We would walk in a commercial area and then stumble into an ancient shrine. One of the places that I wanted to see the most was Saihō-ji, a temple famed for its moss garden. We entered a lottery and were able to secure tickets for a one hour visit to the temple. The moss garden was one of the most fantastical places I have ever seen. Visitors are able to walk around the golden pond and immerse themselves into the serene atmosphere.
