This is a free, independent travel guide. It sells nothing, takes no bookings, and has no commercial relationship with any of the places listed.
Personal data
You can read every page of this site without giving us anything. Personal data is collected only when you choose to send it, and only in these two places:
- Reviews — the name you type, your rating and text, and any photo you attach. No email address is asked for.
- The contact form — your name, email address and message.
We use it to publish your review, or to answer you. Nothing is sold, rented, or used for advertising. Email addresses are never shown on the site.
To keep out spam we also store a one-way hash of your IP address — enough to count submissions, not enough to recover the address itself. The site sets one cookie, jsc_lang, which remembers the language you picked. There is no analytics or advertising tracking of any kind.
The data is held on this site's hosting, on servers in Japan, for as long as the review or enquiry is useful.
You can ask to see, correct or delete anything you have sent us. Use the contact form and say which review or message it concerns.
Accuracy
Opening hours, admission fees and travel directions change, and much of this guide is compiled from Wikipedia rather than checked on site. Treat everything here as a starting point and confirm with the official source before you travel. We cannot accept responsibility for a trip that goes wrong because a detail here was out of date.
Reviews are written by visitors and reflect their own experience, not ours. Links to other sites are provided for convenience; we are not responsible for what they contain.
Photos and text
Spot descriptions and photographs come from Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons and are used under CC BY-SA. Each photo names its photographer and licence when you open it. If you hold the rights to an image here and want it removed or credited differently, tell us and we will act on it.
