For travellers, visiting some of these sacred sites is an awe-inspiring way to learn about and experience the rich history, ceremony and culture that Japan offers. While world-famous temples in Kyoto or Tokyo attract large crowds, there are many lesser-visited destinations where you can immerse yourself in Japan\u2019s spiritual heritage while enjoying the breathtaking scenery.<\/span><\/p>
