I've been planning a month-long trip to Japan with my sister and my soon to be wife. We have already planned out quite a few things we want to do, but if this was you, what would you want to see or do? Keep in mind that we're all rather old (I'll be turning 50 shortly).

Depends on what you are into.
Why did you want to go there in the first place? Just because everyone else does?

For me:
The food (I am cooking more japanese/asian cuisine than western)
Thr culture (inspired by anime but also several JP youtubers like 'abroad in Japan')
The scenery (I specifically bought a new DSLR. For example the bamboo forests)
Tea :)

I learned Japanese when I was in college, and I've been to Haneda airport a few times, but I've never visited the country itself. I'm most interested in the history, the people, temples and culture.
