Curves Magazine Explores the Land of the Rising Sun
Curves magazine, renowned for its captivating journeys through scenic routes, has embarked on its most ambitious expedition yet: Japan. This new edition, titled Curves Japan, delves deep into the country's unique culture, history, and way of life, offering readers an unparalleled exploration of Nippon's diverse landscapes and hidden gems.
A Journey Beyond the Alps
For the first time, Curves has ventured far beyond its European Alpine origins, covering vast continents to reach the Pacific island nation. Stefan Bogner, founder of Curves magazine, describes Japan as "a different world" that defies easy categorization, making it all the more fascinating to experience firsthand.
An Authentic Exploration of Japan
Bogner and his team adopted a distinctive approach to their Japanese adventure, prioritizing authentic experiences over typical tourist itineraries. Their journey was not about ticking off famous landmarks or chasing Instagram-worthy scenes, but rather about immersing themselves in the country's natural flow.
Key aspects of their exploration included:
Navigating the bustling traffic of multi-lane highways and vibrant city centers like Kyoto and Tokyo.
Discovering smaller, lesser-known roads that wind through dense forests and along stunning coastlines.
Visiting fascinating temples that stand as cultural jewels.
Unveiling Japan's Diversity
Bogner covered approximately 5,000 kilometers across Japan, providing unique insights into its rich diversity. The expedition utilized a variety of Porsche vehicles to suit different terrains and experiences:
718 Boxster: Used for seeking out curves in the 'Japanese Alps'.
Fully Electric Taycan and Macan: Employed for more leisurely explorations.
Curves Japan is now available in stores, inviting readers to discover the country in a truly special way.
