Visiting Japan Feb 208

Hi all, i will visiting Japan on last week of Feb 2008, just with my wife. We are looking for a not-so-cold tourist location where we can enjoy hot spring spa, quiet surroundings, natural parks and of course, lots of sashimi and japanese food. Pls advise where i can go. thanks.

Just an IDEA . How about visiting Kyushu island, where a warm weather is rather garanteed. Aso mountain,with possibility of horse riding and hot spring, some gorges, Beppu hot springs, visitings to some wineries and some beer breweries. Famous Fugu fish, to be served as sashimi or in pot, which is the best in winter.

Thanks. The idea is great. I am doing some research now. I was oso recommended to visit Nagasaki, which is in Kyushu Island. Just want to know how long the bullet train will take from toyko to the island.

Hi,
It takes just a 5hour and 30munute by a bullet train from Tokyo to Hakata Fukuoka, and one and a half hour by airplane.
I also want recommend Kyushu where is best place in winter season, we offer you a lot of hot springs, natural parks including active volcanoes, nice Japanese foods including sea foods.
