The Land of the Rising sun has steadily grown in popularity among Filipinos as a top holiday destination, with many of them choosing to spend precious downtime in its many diverse cities. After all, the East Asian country has something for everyone: urbanites at heart will feel right at home roaming Osaka and Tokyo's streets, adventurers can admire the great outdoors in Niseko and Shikoku, culture junkies can get their fix in Nara and Kyoto, while foodies, well, can look to any restaurant, big or small, for their daily dose of Japanese fare of their liking!
It comes to no surprise then that even celebrities, socialites, and other personalities want to explore the neighboring country; there's just so much about it to discover and love. Want to know what they have been up to in Japan (and to maybe get inspiration from their travels for your own Japan trip)?
