Links of the Rising Sun: Where High Culture Meets Great Golf |
 |
Golf doesn't
leap to mind when we think of Japan: but then neither should
Mount Fuji, Hiroshima, and the Nikkei.
Widely considered the world's most endearing, mystical, and
esoteric culture, let us show you the Japan the guide books
have missed out on, and the top links in the Land of the
Rising Sun.
In Tokyo, the world's largest metropolis, that's the
uberprivate Kasumigaseki, playground for the business elite.
Take in the organized chaos of the morning fish market (and
barter over two-ton bluefin, if you please), and a
traditional Sumo wrestling match. In Hakone, it's the city's
legendary namesake guesthouse and the Hakone Country Club.
At our next stop, Kawana, it's a night's stay in a
traditional Japanese ryokan, and golf at the Hotel Fuji
course. In Kyoto, we'll bring you the traditional Japanese
teahouse experience, and the rest of the way, it's Kobe
steak dinners and Miyajima sightseeing, and memorable rounds
of golf at Naruo, Koga, and Hirono; the last a magical
layout, ranked 35th in the world, that since 1932 has been
an exemplar of exclusive golf in a country that exalts its
bests. Nothing evokes golf envy in Japan like getting on
Hirono.
Add-On
On the way home, consider a one-night stopover on South
Korea's 'Maui,' Jeju Island, for a round at Nine Bridges
(ranked #55 in the World),
widely considered the most dramatic golf setting in East
Asia. |
