HYPER JAPAN 2012 Christmas

In the latest instalment of our series on the Japanese travel experiences of our readers, Josh Barron takes us through his night in a capsule hotel, and gives us some insight into these uniquely Japanese establishments.

The Sumo Run, an annual 5K charity fun run, is taking place this summer.

HYPER JAPAN 2012 Spring exhibitor ICN Gallery is presenting a series of exhibitions that centres on the theme of ukiyo-e. "What is Ukiyo-e?" is running from 5 - 28 April and is the first in the series, serves as an introduction to ukiyo-e that will hopefully enable visitors to better understand its historical origins and influence on Japanese art.

HYPER JAPAN 2012 Spring welcomed a host of fabulous fashionistas to the event this February. Check out some of our stylish attendees in the gallery below.
