Domestic travellers in Japan often visit specific regions for the food / crafts / traditions they are historically known for. Below are a few resources to help you either find the right regions for the items you are looking for OR to find what the area you are visiting is famous for. I have hand picked these websites based on 1) usability (search) and 2) reliability of information.
