Joanna Lumley journeys across Japan. She visits the city of Sapporo during the annual Snow Festival, visits the Fukushima exclusion zone and takes a 'bullet train' to Tokyo.

Joanna flies over the city of Tokyo in a helicopter, walks the Nakasendo Way that once linked Tokyo to Kyoto, and arrives in Kyoto at the peak of the cherry blossom season.

Joanna visits a selection of temples to better understand Japanese Buddhism, stays in the world's first robot hotel and gets an aerial view of one of Japan's most active volcanoes.
