Go to an account of a similar bike tour in March 2000.

Track of the cycling tour through Western Japan, July 1993

  1. My impressions during the first day in Japan.
  2. A short story about how slowly it goes when passing a city centre with hundreds of traffic lights.
  3. A picture of the Japanese countryside once I finally got away from the urban area.
  4. How the Dutch made their landmarks in Nagasaki; pictures and a description of the Holland Village and surroundings.
  5. With the bicycle in front of the rockgarden at a minshuku (hostel) in Asa.
  6. Photograph of a valley on the way to Nobeoka.
  7. At the entrance of a tunnel, one of the many that I passed.
  8. Typical farmhouse and landscape of western Honshu.
  9. How it could happen that I lost my way and hence manoeuvered myself into a difficult situation.
  10. On the last day in Japan I rode along a scenic coast.
From here you can hop over to Korea and find lots of info about cycling in that country.
