Most of Japan's islands are mountainous, and many are volcanic, including the highest mountain, Mount Fuji.

The characters that make up Japan's name mean "the sun's origin", so Japan is also sometimes known as "The Land of the Rising Sun", a name that comes from the country's eastward position relative to mainland Asia.

23、Some are attracted to museums by the art and the culture — but if that isn’t enough, there is always the novelty!

Cupnoodles Museum

The Cupnoodles Museum in Yokohama, Japan, offers a treat: exhibits can be not only admired, but eaten. Visitors can work in the museum’s noodle workshop, refining creations with their favourite ingredients. While doing so, one can also learn the history of the noodle, one of Japan’s most popular foods.

Tenement Museum

At New York’s Tenement Museum, visitors can gain an insight into what life was like for immigrants and the working class in the city from the 1860s through to the 1980s. The museum opened in 1992 and offers guided tours of two tenement buildings with recreated rooms, where costumed “residents” enact the daily lives of the city’s newcomers and workers over the period —leaps and bounds from the money makers of Wall Street.

Cancún Underwater Museum

As the name suggests, it is underwater. More than 500 sculptures anchored in the ocean off Mexico are meant to illustrate the interaction effect of art and nature. Visitors can either admire the works through a glass-bottom boat or take a scuba diving tour.

Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre

With great attention to detail, New Zealand built the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre, which exhibits original aircraft from the First and Second World Wars.
