For most travellers, Nagasaki is a symbol of the horror and the inhumanity of war. An estimated 70,000 people perished in 1945 when the city became the second target of a nuclear attack. Today, Nagasaki's Peace Park and Atomic Bomb Museum draw visitors from around the world.

Seogwipo is the second-largest city on Jeju Island, settled on a rocky volcanic coastline in the southern part of Jeju Province, South Korea. Lying off the south coast of Korea, Jeju-do is the warmest and wettest place in the entire country. The island's mixture of volcanic rock, frequent rain and temperate climate, make it very similar to the islands of Hawaii. Jeju-do is basically an island composed of extinct volcanoes formed by volcanic matter such as basalt and trachyte and layered with sedimentary rock. It still has an extinct volcano called Mt Hallasan, which, at 1950 metres also doubles up as the island's main mountain.

The seasons determine the changing hues of colour throughout the island however, the island is at its most beautiful in spring. This is when the canola flower blooms in a riot of delicate colours and the wooded areas display the most fascinating shades of green.

The island offers visitors a wide range of activities with the most popular being hiking on Halla-san, South Korea's highest peak. Enjoy the chance to see majestic waterfalls or lay on the sandy beaches. One of the most outstanding features of the island is a regular maze of tunnels, caves and pillars formed by the cooling of lava flows from ancient volcanoes.

In 1859, the port of Hakodate was among the first Japanese cities to fully open to Westerners under the Treaty of Amity and Commerce. Foreigners soon flocked to Hakodate, and today visitors wandering the cobblestone streets of the city's Motomachi District can view the Western-style frame houses. Hakodate, once a fishing port famed for its high quality fish and shellfish, quickly became Hokkaido's largest city and one of Japan's most important ports.

Today, the city is Hokkaido's third largest but retains its position as the finest Japanese producer of high quality seafood for sushi. It may not compare to Tokyo's Tsukiji Fish Market, but at Hakodate's 4-block-long morning market, vendors offer an array of fresh fish and shellfish including salmon roe, sea urchin, scallops and crab. Restaurants and food stands prepare a wide range of dishes including domburi topped with fresh seafood.

In 1945, human history was irrevocably altered when American bomber Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. The bomb was code-named "Little Boy" but its detonation left half the city in ruins. Today, Hiroshima is a monument not only to the destructive forces harnessed by men but also to the indomitable will of the human spirit to overcome tragedy.

At the heart of the city lies Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome. The gutted walls of the city's old Industry Promotion Hall and the skeletal frame that supported its copper dome, vaporised in the blast, are instantly recognisable symbols of Hiroshima.

Travellers to Hiroshima will discover a more serene note on nearby Miyajima Island. One of the top 3 scenic spots of Japan, the island is home to the ancient Itsukushima Shrine, a designated national treasure.

Busan was the scene of bitter fighting during the Korean War so, if you're interested in history, head to The United Nations Memorial Cemetery. This marks the final resting place for troops from 11 nations who gave their lives during the conflict.

From the 12th century to the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Kagoshima was the chief stronghold of the mighty Shimazu clan. The city lies at the top of the Satsuma Peninsula, a mountainous and geothermal wonderland of hot springs and geysers. The symbol of Kagoshima is Sakurajima, the volcanic island that sits just offshore. The volcano has erupted over 30 times in recorded history.

The area is also rich in modern Japanese history as Saigo Takamori and the Satsuma samurai were leaders of the Meiji Restoration that toppled the shogun and restored the Emperor to power in 1868. In 1877, dissatisfied with the direction of the new government, Saigo led the Satsuma Rebellion. This ended in his death and the final defeat of the samurai.

Kochi takes its name from the great feudal castle that sits at its very heart. Completed in 1611, Kochi Castle was the seat of Yamauchi Kazutoyo, a noted warrior who supported Tokugawa Ieyasu in his successful quest to become Shogun. Tosa Province and Kochi Castle were Yamauchi's reward for faithful service. There is an historical irony here as 250 years later, a former low-ranked samurai turned ronin, named Sakamoto Ryoma, played a pivotal role in bringing the Tokugawa Shogunate to an end and restoring the Emperor of Japan to political prominence. The prize once awarded for faithful service had become a hotbed of support for the Meiji Restoration.

Kochi is one of the wettest places in Japan and a frequent target for cyclonic storms or typhoons. Southeast of the city, warm oceans currents washing against the Aki Mountains create a subtropical landscape of hibiscus, palm and ficus at Muroto-Anan Quasi-National Park.

A mesmerising landscape, a revered cultural history and Japan's most sacred volcano are just a few delights beckoning you to explore this ancient city. While Shimizu may have the reputation as being bustling and modern, its cultural and spiritual side is on display in the form of ancient and enthralling shrines.

Of course, it may be the sacred and snow-capped Mount Fuji that garners the most attention. Towering over the region at approximately 12,388 feet above sea level, the active volcano is just one of the many unforgettable adventures Shimizu inspires.

Important: 
• Please start arranging your visa three weeks before departure to account for any delays due to consulate operating hours.
• Visa rules are subject to change. Please check with the nearest embassy, consulate or immigration department of the destination/s you are visiting once you receive your travel documentation to ensure you have the most up to date information.
• It is your responsibility to be travel-ready and ensure that you are aware and comply with any destination or travel requirements, including the validity of all required travel documents.
• Passengers who are not Australian citizens must also check with the respective consulate or visa agency to determine what their visa requirements are and what personal identification is required.
• It is also important to note that some areas of employment, such as journalism, government authorities and charity organisations, may have additional restrictions in applying for visas. This may, in turn, affect the type of application required.

Embarking on your next trip is exciting, and while you hope the unexpected does not happen, it is best to be prepared. We strongly recommend you take out travel insurance when making your booking.
