While you're there, make sure to check out these spots to enjoy the most picturesque sights of Japan in summer and snap gorgeous photos for your travel album:

1. Mukogawa Gorge, Osaka

This hiking trail will give you an amazing juxtaposition between old and new as well as between nature and man-made. Walk along an abandoned train line, stumble across old tunnels and bridges along the way, all while being surrounded by lush forests and flowing rivers.

AirAsia Economy Fare: KUL-KIX from RM369

2. Meiji Shrine, Tokyo

From the massive torii gate marking the entrance, to the approximately 100,000 trees that make up Meiji Shrine's forest, there are so many things to take photos of! Don't miss out on the peaceful and serene Inner Garden, and if you're lucky, you may even be able to witness and snap some unique photos of a traditional Shinto wedding.

Location: 1-1 Yoyogikamizonocho, Shibuya, Tokyo 151-8557

AirAsia Economy Fare: KUL-HND from RM399

3. The Blue Pond, Hokkaido

This man-made pond gets the gorgeous whitish-blue colour it's known for from substances like sulphur and lime being absorbed into the water over the years. What makes the pond truly magical is that the pond's colour actually changes hues depending on the season, due to natural minerals dissolving into the water.

Location: Shirogane, 美瑛町 Kamikawa District, Hokkaido 071-0235

AirAsia Economy Fare: KUL-CTS from RM449
