When is the best time to fly to Japan?
Japan is one of those incredible destinations that’s great to visit all year round, but it also has some truly magical times of the year that you should consider.

Why do Canadian students love visiting Japan?
For Canadian students considering studying abroad in Japan, you’re truly in for a treat. Japan is a great destination for students and you’ll be gaining access to some of the top universities in Asia. There is a range of program options to choose from, many of which have English study options. In between classes you’ll find there is a lot to do, even on a student budget. Experience the old and new side to the country, with a visit to a Buddhist monastery followed by night in a super modern and funky capsule hotel.
Japanese universities and campuses
In Asia, Japanese universities have a great reputation. But it’s not just in Asia their universities are ranked highly, it’s across the world too. Some of the highest-ranking universities in Japan include the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University. Luckily for students, Tokyo and Kyoto are also two of the best cities to study abroad in Japan. While Tokyo has a more modern, bustling-city feel, Kyoto is a bit more historical and quieter, and is full of museums and festivals.
Japanese lifestyle and culture
If you’re looking for a destination with both incredibly cutting edge technology and traditional cultures, Japan is the perfect blend of both for you. When visiting this island nation you may find its culture and customs a little different than what you’re used to at home. So just be sure to never, ever litter, be polite and try to learn a few key phrases in Japanese to get you by. And if languages aren’t your forte, don’t worry! A lot of street signs are in Japanese, English and Romaji. And when it comes to safety in Japan, it’s known to be one of the safest places for travellers worldwide.
Exploring Japan on a student budget
Budget-friendly is now a phrase that immediately springs to mind when thinking of Japan. Hey, it’s home to Osaka, one of the most expensive cities in the world. But despite this, this country is surprisingly great at offering activities and accommodation types for those with limited funds. Save some cash during your trip by staying in a hostel and enjoying some free activities like walking tours, window shopping at the markets and visiting the parks. And try to eat local to keep the cost down too.
