The project “d design travel” has been developed by D&Department. It focuses on showcasing the 47 Japanese prefectures (municipalities) through their very local assets such as craftsmen, hoteliers, vocal residents, cafés and much more. Apart from being an online platform, there are printed guides with text both in Japanese and English. It is a good way to explore not only Tokyo but the whole country accompanied by local experts. These are guides for Japan lovers, many of whom are actual Japanese residents. So change your Frommers or Lonely Planet for the d design travel magazine and happy discoveries.
