Golf in Japan
Japan is renowned for its unique culture and exemplary customs and manners and this itself is enough mystique for the traveller seeking an experience out of the ordinary. Beyond this the country offers plentiful natural and cultural sites to explore from the ubiquitous snow-capped Mount Fuji to the historic monuments of Kyoto. Additionally and something that Japan and its people take great pride in is its seasons and the explosion of colours that ensues with fall, spring, summer and winter.
Golfing in Japan is widespread and a popular sport. It is common knowledge that the Japanese are avid if not fanatical golfers. With almost 10% of the population playing golf, it is no surprise that for a country which is short on land area has more than 2400 golf courses, which amounts to more than the rest of Asia put together. While quite a few of these golf courses are private and only accessible to members, there are many of top quality in outstanding settings that are open to visitors. Several of Japan’s golf courses have been designed by the best names in the sport and can easily compare to the best courses one would play anywhere.
