• When is the most romantic time to visit Japan?

  Spring and fall are perfect for couples. From March to May, you'll see cherry blossoms everywhere - picture walking hand in hand under pink petals in Kyoto when it's a comfortable 54-70°F (12-21°C). Fall is equally beautiful from September to November, with red maple leaves and temperatures around 50-70°F (10-21°C). One of our TourRadar travelers put it perfectly: "We visited during cherry blossom season and it was magical - perfect for romantic walks and picnics in places like Ueno Park in Tokyo and along the Philosopher's Path in Kyoto."

  You'll find plenty of intimate dining spots across Japan. Try a private kaiseki dinner at a ryokan like Yufuin Sansuikan, take a sushi-making class together in Tokyo's Ginza area, or enjoy dinner at a cozy izakaya in Kyoto's Pontocho alley. You can also book a private tea ceremony or eat dinner with a view at Osaka's Umeda Sky Building.
