NipponNavi
Japan, filtered to what you actually care about. Local favorites and famous sights in all 47 prefectures, on one map.
How it works
One map of Japan, narrowed down to your trip.
01
Pick your interests
Food, onsen, shrines and goshuin, nature, nightlife, mascots, stamp rallies — the map shows only the categories you choose.
02
Slide from local to iconic
Every place is rated by who actually goes there, from spots mostly locals know to the sights everyone has on their list.
03
Plan your days
Save places, build day-by-day itineraries, and carry phrase cards with audio for the moments you need them.
Hokkaido to Okinawa
Covering all of Japan
NipponNavi started as a guide to the Tokai region around Nagoya, where Kiso Studios is based. It now covers every prefecture, with regional guides, a list of Japan’s top 100 sights, and a blog with walking routes and day trips.
