By / MOOK Scenic Spots Family Travel Life Network Editorial Team

In 2014, the number of visitors to Japan exceeded 2.83 million, making Japan travel a long-standing top choice for Taiwanese. The special affinity for Japan goes beyond tourism, extending to sports, academia, business, culture and entertainment, etc. Taiwanese people have a “deep love” for Japan in every aspect of life.

From June 18 to June 21 during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the “New Japan Travel Festival,” jointly organized by China Airlines, TransAsia Airways, and Kaohsiung Catering, kicks off a four-day event at the Flower Expo Exhibition Hall. The event offers free admission and is sure to attract many Japan travel enthusiasts.

Exhibitors include tourism organizations from 20 prefectures and cities across Japan, all introducing Taiwan to their local attractions and specialties. Traditional Japanese handicrafts, culture, cuisine, and local mascots are all major highlights for Japan travel fans. This event also features a mascot vote—fans of Japan’s various mascots should come show support for their favorites.

Popular Japanese foods that can only be tasted in Japan—such as super trendy ramen, udon, premium teas, fine wines, local delicacies, and specialty snacks—will also be available for sampling at the exhibition. There will also be numerous prize giveaways and promotional activities, including round-trip tickets to Japan, hotel stay vouchers, and popular souvenirs. It promises to be exciting!
