JapanTourist Mission Statement

JapanTourist aims to become the largest and most trusted reference website for travel to Japan, by creating content and a software platform that facilitates sharing and being shared.

JapanTourist is published by Japan Partnership K.K.

JapanTourist is fast becoming the largest web database of English-language travel articles in Japan, and currently is Japan's only travel site to use a fully enabled English-language user reviews engine. The site is also unique for other reasons:

  • We offer rewards to contributors who are providing us with substantial articles and photos (versus simple comments)
  • "We" are actually a network of more than 30 partners who represent the whole of Japan, rather than just Tokyo and other big cities
  • Our content is created by our community of contributors - local Japanese and resident foreigners - who know Japan best
  • We are partnering with major web portals hungry for properly licenced, easily available content

Our goal is to create a massive database of more than 10,000 articles, photos, and videos, and to become the primary hub for travel information in Japan.

Technologically, our site is being powered by a sister company, MetroWorks Inc., which has created a fast, easy-to-use and highly functional recommendation and rewards engine for us. Thank you MetroWorks!
