Friday Roundup: March 20, 2015
Welcome to the third edition of the Unique Japan Tours Friday Round Up. The purpose of this post is to collect in one place the best things we’ve shared on social media during the week. Follow us on Twitter,Facebook, Google+ and Instagram to get great Japan content from around the web we think is worth reading!
This week’s postings have mostly been concerned about two things: cherry blossoms and the opening of the new shinkansen line between Tokyo and Kanazawa. This has included articles about the shinkansen itself or talking about Kanazawa.
