Hanasaku Iroha is set in the fictional spa town of Yunosagi, modelled on Yuwaku Onsen in Kanazawa, with a station borrowed from Nishigishi. Follow Ohana from her grandmother's inn to the lantern festival.
The five stops cover the spa town, the demolished hotel that inspired Kissuisō, the rival inn, the station and the real Bonbori Festival. Several models have since closed or changed, so this is as much a fan trail as a set of sites.
Wim Wenders' Perfect Days follows Hirayama, a Tokyo toilet cleaner who keeps his days exactly the same: the same overalls, the same cassette tapes, the same sandwich under the trees. The city changes around him; he notices the light through the leaves.
This route follows the film's real Tokyo, from the old apartment east of the Sumida to four of the Tokyo Toilet project's designer facilities, the shrine bench where he eats lunch, the sento and Asakusa bar that fill his evenings, and the bridge where the story ends.
Entre 1180 y 1185, los dos grandes clanes guerreros de Japón, los Taira y los Minamoto, se disputaron el reino, y la guerra terminó con un emperador niño, una flota y la marea de Dan-no-ura. Fue la guerra que condujo al primer shogun.
La ruta visita siete campos de batalla por orden de fechas, desde el puente de Uji hasta el estrecho de Kanmon. Los hechos documentados se mantienen aparte de las leyendas del «Heike monogatari», que el texto atribuye al relato. La mayoría de las zonas de combate son aproximadas.
