Are there still parts of Japan that are undamaged?

Question:

I was planning on going to Japan in about 3 or 4 years but after all of the disaster there I don't know if it's still going to happen. Are there any parts that are still in tact and would be good to visit, or should be better by 2014?

Answer:

Most of Japan is relatively undamaged after the quake. Tokyo and Yokohama are already back to normal and everything south (Nagoya, Osaka, Kyoto, Shikoku, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Okinawa, etc.) are completely untouched. Hokaido as well is pretty well back to normal with very little damage. Only the coastal cities in Fukushima, Iwate, Miyazaki, Ibaraki and Aomori have the major damage but even the inland or western areas of the north are fine.
