Kyoto, Japan

Some people dislike the festival, while others enjoy it and still, others are vehemently opposed to it, yet it cannot be denied that Valentine's Day is extensively celebrated in Japan. It has its own set of cultural norms, as well as its own set of traditions and expectations. The celebrations are not exactly the same as they are in much of the rest of the world.

Consider walking through a maze of narrow lanes dotted with traditional wooden houses. Kyoto is one of the most incredible Japanese cities that has kept its original facade. It's the ideal meeting point for old and new. Kyoto, known as the city of 10,000 shrines, will take you on a spiritual trek, immersing you and your loved one in a true cultural experience.
