A little larger than Italy and a little smaller than the state of California, the country is physically isolated, which is important in explaining its distinct culture. Of the four main islands of Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Shikoku, Honshu is the largest. It accounts for more than 60 percent of Japan’s total area and is the site of the major cities of Fukuoka, Yokohama, Osaka, Nagoya, Kyoto, and Tokyo, which is the capital. Explore the country's many swift rivers, deep valleys, and rocky gorges. Its magnificent mountain range, known as the Japan Alps, is a paradise for skiers and mountain climbers.\n
