What's New

Updated: 2014-04-04

Welcome to PHOTOGUIDE.JP, a photo guide to Japan featuring numerous photos and videos of Japan's 47 prefectures. This site aims to show that Japan is a lot more than just Tokyo, Kyoto, cherry blossoms, and geisha girls.

Latest Images

I currently have over 48,000 images online (and hundreds of thousands offline) from all 47 prefectures. They are in over 900 photo sets (albums) categorized by prefecture and city/town/village. Here are the latest (some are still being updated). And don't forget to see my latest videos too (listed in the right column).
