Book flights to Japan

Japan is an archipelago of almost 7000 separate islands and is a fascinating nation unlike any other. Fused with the age-old traditions is the other side of Japan with its cutting-edge technologies and high fashion, which all blend together to make travelling to Japan with Qatar Airways a fascinating experience.   

A country of startling contrasts for such a narrow ribbon of islands, you can pass sprawling modern cities as well as paddy fields on a train journey across the country. Within the country’s main cities, you’ll find video games parlours and fashion boutiques rubbing shoulders with traditional street vendors. Most of the Japanese landscape is dotted with temples, shrines and castles of old warlords, and street festivals are celebrated throughout the year in Japan’s various provinces.

Undergoing continuous transformations and fuelled by industrialisation efforts, Japan has risen through the ranks to become a major player in world economics and global business spheres. The vibrant and modern cities of Osaka, Kyoto, Kanazawa and Tokyo are today concentrations of high fashion, endless gadgets and huge wealth. They’re also the best places to go if you’re interested in seeing some of the famous Japanese traditional performing arts such as no-plays and kabuki. 

Meanwhile, those who are looking to venture a little further out from the big cities will find amazing sites awaiting too. The Shiretoko National Park and the famous Okinawa Islands are stunning, subtropical paradises and among Japan’s most coveted attractions.

Visitors will not run short on things to do in this bustling country, whether it’s enjoying a relaxing time at the hot springs or walking through the award-winning architectural creations. When you fly to Japan with Qatar Airways, you will find warm and welcoming people, a fascinating culture and history, and some of the most beautiful landscapes you’ll ever see.
