Festivals are the best way to see the real Japan- they are not just tourist shows. try to gatecrash a local shrine or town festival in the summer. experience new year or , my favourite, hanabi. Hanabi are firework festivals held in summer. They are well planned, well attended and great. Pitch your riverside spot days in advance or just turn up a nudge in on someone elses. wear a yukata or jimbe and watch the fantastic displays. Edogawa was good last year.
