From the street food of Kagoshima to capes in Aichi all the way up to Hokkaido, here are the highlights of where our readers traveled in June!
Every month, we’re selecting our favorite travel images from readers to help showcase and discover new ground in Japan’s vast land- and cityscapes. Tag your photo on Instagram or Twitter with #GaijinPotTravel for a chance to be featured on our site.
1) Kegon Falls in Nikko — an awesome way to get out of the Tokyo heat and an amazing view in all seasons.
2. When a random flight gets you to this, you don’t question it. (Kagoshima)
3. Deer shots from Nara have become the cliche, but there’s just something about this one you cannot look away from.
4. Now, that’s just plain purtty. (Odaiba, Tokyo)
5. Oi! Kitaro! (The Ge Ge Ge no Kitaro train is too cute!) (Tottori)
6. When all the neon colors collide, we’re left with what we cannot hide. (Kabukicho, Shinjuku)
7. The little-known but very lovely Irago in Aichi Prefecture.
8. Ruler of the city. (We love that Godzilla Head is listed on Google Maps as such.)
9. Too young to give a hoot. (Tsurumi, Kanagawa)
10. Not the Japan you’re used to seeing, ay? (Cape Kamui, Hokkaido)
