About

This site is a simple do’s and don’t bothers of the Kansai region. I will try my best to provide useful information without overlapping to much presented elsewhere. I’m not an expert and I rely on user submitted information.

If you want to add to this site feel free to comment on any post by adding your particular information.

My ultimate goal is to show what a great place Japan is for travelers.
