KANSAI UNIQUE EXPERIENCE（English）

The Kansai region, comprising Kyoto, Osaka, Fukui, Shiga, Hyogo, Nara, and Wakayama prefectures, is central to Japan’s historical and cultural heritage and the location of many attractive tourist destinations. Today, however, increasing numbers of tourists prefer to have first-hand experiences that offer exciting sensations unique to specific regions, rather than simply going sightseeing and shopping. For example, they are eager to have experiences such as harvesting tea with local farmers, or forging a sword under the supervision of an expert swordsmith. In particular, tourists to destinations other than large cities tend to hope to experience unique cultures, including the culinary culture, of respective locations and to interact with local residents.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE is optimal attractions to satisfy such needs of tourists since they provide opportunities to observe time-honored technologies that have developed in the respective regions, to sample the tastes of distinctive foods and drinks, and to have friendly exchanges with artisans and other local people. Through such experiences, tourists can gain a deeper understanding of the historical and cultural backgrounds of local industries. Visits to traditional industrial facilities therefore have become essential elements in satisfying inbound tourists to Japan.

This movie introduces ten destinations for UNIQUE EXPERIENCE in the wide area of the Kansai region.
