That changed in the early 17th century after Tokugawa Ieyasu became Shogun. Edo became the center of political power in Japan, a position the city retained even after the restoration of Imperial rule in 1866. Contemporary Tokyo may be the most astonishing city on earth. It's a paradoxical mix of ancient tradition and postmodern culture. The Ginza - an international shopping mecca - stands near the serene grounds of the Imperial Palace, a... ### Day 2: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 3: Hakodate **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM It took Commodore Perry and American gunboat diplomacy to open Japan to the outside world after two centuries of self-imposed isolation.

Hakodate, once a fishing port famed for its high quality fish and she... ### Day 4: Aomori **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM The capital of the Aomori Prefecture in northern Japan, Aomori derives much of its beauty from the apple orchards and cherry blossoms that encompass its landscape and the snow-covered Hakkoda Mountains that look on from a distance. Throughout its history, the city has been stricken with misfortune time and time again - in 1910, a fire destroyed Aomori, and during World War II, the city was left in ruins following an air raid - yet it always prevails. Aomori is cherished by many who believe a ... ### Day 5: Akita **Arrives:** 09:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM There is a celebratory air in Akita, where year round festivals and street parades are colorfully integrated into daily life.

Noted for its burgeoning art community, there are several fine museums to explore including The Hirano Masakichi Art Musuem housing a collection of work by We... ### Day 6: Niigata **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Traditionally famous for rice making and sake production, Niigata is the place for gourmet aficionados. It is also well known for the seafood caught from the Sea of Japan. With this variety of the commodity produced locally, Niigata developed from the wealth gained through shipping and trade by Kitamae-bune, which were cargo ships operated along the Sea of Japan between Hokkaido and Osaka from mid-18th century to the end of the 19th century. To the south of Niigata is the Tsubame-Sanjo area fam... ### Day 7: Kanazawa **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM Kanazawa is the capital of Ishikawa Prefecture, on Japan’s central Honshu Island.

The town of Matsue boasts the celebrated ... ### Day 9: Busan **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM The second largest city in South Korea, Busan is your gateway to a fascinating land whose culture is a unique amalgam of old and new.

Busan was the scene of bitter fighting duri... ### Day 10: Nagasaki **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM For most travelers, Nagasaki is a symbol of the horror and the inhumanity of war.
