Question:
I am planning a family trip to japan in the winter! Can you recommend cities to visit or festivals to attend and even other activities to do?
Answer:
If you enjoy winter, yes it is. If you want to experience a white snow covered place, Sapporo is a great choice. but the yuki matsuri (snow festival) is held during February. but if you're lucky you might see some people carving statues from ice during that time.
If you want less cold weather, you may visit Kyoto. The Kinkaku-ji looks really beautiful in winter.

Maybe the most famous festival held in December is in Chichibu, Saitama. There's also a national festival called shichigosan which is a festival for small boys and girls.
It's also a great time to eat hot delicious ramen during winter.
Overall, there are lots of activities and events during December especially in huge cities like Tokyo and Osaka.
