Even official bodies such as the Japan National Tourist Office pick of 10 Romantic Hotspots can bring unusual ideas to the fore. Fits well with the fact that today is Valentine’s Day.
In Tokyo, if you like attraction parks try The Big O (a centerless Ferris wheel) at the Tokyo Dome.
After the ride, get pampered nearby at Spa LaQua, a take on the traditional ‘Onsen‘.
For a quiet and meditative stroll, the Meiji Jingu Shrine is a quiet spot in the middle of the hubbub of the city graced by an evergreen forest of some 365 species.
Ready to travel outside Tokyo, the Hyobaku Ice Festival in Hokkaido (February and March) includes illuminated ice sculptures.
I found this amazing photo of "Shikaribetsu Lake Kotan" which they call ‘the phantom village’ on the East Hokkaido Event Page.
For the other 7 romantic hotspots read their piece and pick your own favorites.
