Tokyo isn't all there is to Japan. In fact, travel writer Ramsey Zarifeh encourages people who visit the country to quickly visit Tokyo and then use the country's very prompt rail system to get far away from the metropolis. He tells Boyd about the country's mountains, hot springs, and one troublesome geyser that almost caused an international incident between Britain and Japan by dousing a civil servant's dog.
