Are you considering taking your family on vacation to Japan this summer? Japan is a great place to travel with kids; it’s safe, clean, and full of fun activities and culture with a little bit of something for every age group. The downside is that many of the breathtakingly beautiful and ancient cultural sites like the shrines and temples may become a bore to the kids after just one or two. While you and your partner would love to take a stroll down the tranquilent path to Meiji Shrine or explore the small bars and restaurants in Shinjuku’s Omoide Yokocho “memory lane”, your kids would probably much rather explore Tokyo’s best toy store Kiddyland in Harajuku or spend a day at Disneyland and Disneysea.
