Now I'll start researching flight options and the best regions to visit based on your interests. Let's begin by searching for flight information and gathering essential data about traveling to Japan from Seattle.

<web-search query="flights from Seattle to Japan April 2025 costs" num_results="20"></web-search>

Let me also search for information about the best places to visit in Japan, especially focusing on historical sites and cultural experiences:

<web-search query="best historical sites in Japan for first-time visitors" num_results="20"></web-search>

Now let's look for information about Nara deer park and other cultural experiences you mentioned:

<web-search query="Nara deer park Japan visiting guide" num_results="20"></web-search>

<web-search query="authentic tea ceremony experience Japan for tourists" num_results="20"></web-search>

<web-search query="zen meditation experiences for tourists in Japan" num_results="20"></web-search>

<web-search query="kendo observation or experience for tourists in Japan" num_results="20"></web-search>

Let's also research hidden gems and romantic spots in Japan for your proposal:

<web-search query="romantic proposal locations in Japan scenic views" num_results="20"></web-search>

<web-search query="hidden gems in Japan off the beaten path" num_results="20"></web-search>

Now let's look at transportation options within Japan:

<web-search query="Japan Rail Pass cost and coverage 2025" num_results="20"></web-search>

Based on the searches, I'm going to compile information to create your itinerary. First, let me mark some research tasks as complete and update our todo list:

            <h2>Proposal Guide: The Philosopher's Path</h2>
            
            <h3>The Perfect Spot</h3>
            <p>The Philosopher's Path (哲学の道, Tetsugaku no michi) is a stone path that follows a cherry tree-lined canal in Kyoto, between Ginkaku-ji (Silver Pavilion) and Nanzen-ji neighborhoods. Named after the philosopher Nishida Kitaro who used this path for daily meditation, it offers a tranquil setting perfect for reflection – and for a memorable proposal.</p>
            
            <h3>Best Time & Location</h3>
            <p>For your April 21st proposal, we recommend:</p>
            <ul class="tips-list">
                <li><strong>Time</strong>: Arrive 1-2 hours before sunset (around 4:30-5:00 PM in April)</li>
                <li><strong>Specific Spot</strong>: The quiet area near Honen-in Temple entrance, about midway along the path</li>
                <li><strong>Benefits</strong>: This area has fewer tourists, a picturesque bridge, and potential late-blooming cherry trees</li>
            </ul>
            
            <h3>Practical Considerations</h3>
            <ul class="tips-list">
                <li>Visit the path earlier in the day to scout the exact location</li>
                <li>Consider waterproof protection for the ring in case of light rain</li>
                <li>Keep the ring in a secure but accessible pocket</li>
                <li>If you'd like photos, position yourselves near the canal for the best backdrop</li>
                <li>Check the weather forecast; have a backup plan (Ginkaku-ji covered areas) in case of rain</li>
            </ul>
            
            <h3>Japanese Phrase for the Moment</h3>
            <div class="phrase-item">
                <span class="japanese">結婚してください</span>
                <span class="pronunciation">Kek-kon shi-te ku-da-sai</span>
                <p class="meaning">Will you marry me?</p>
            </div>
            
            <h3>Celebrating After</h3>
            <p>After the proposal, consider celebrating at one of these nearby options:</p>
            <ul class="tips-list">
                <li><strong>Casual Celebration</strong>: Café Kosci - Small café near the path with outdoor seating</li>
                <li><strong>Upscale Dining</strong>: Hyotei - Historic Kyoto restaurant (requires reservation)</li>
                <li><strong>Memorable View</strong>: Head to nearby Shinbashi-dori for evening illuminations</li>

## Final Review of Itinerary

1. **Balance and Pacing**: Our itinerary includes 3 days in Tokyo, 3 days in Kyoto (including the Nara day trip), and 1 day in Osaka. This provides a good balance between the modern experiences of Tokyo and the historical aspects of Kyoto.

2. **Addressing Interests**:
   - Historical Sites: We've included Sensō-ji Temple, Meiji Shrine, Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kiyomizu-dera, and Todai-ji
   - Hidden Gems: Incorporated lesser-known spots like Denbo-in Garden, Gioji Temple, and quieter paths in popular areas
   - Japanese Culture: Included kendo experience, tea ceremony, and Zen meditation
   - Nara's Deer: Dedicated a full day to Nara including the deer park
   - Walking Exploration: Built in walking tours through various neighborhoods in Tokyo and Kyoto

3. **Budget Alignment**: The estimated budget range of $4,975-6,895 fits within your $2,500-5,000 per person range (total $5,000-10,000 for both of you).

4. **Proposal Location**: The Philosopher's Path in Kyoto has been selected as a romantic, scenic, and meaningful location, with specific recommendations for timing and the exact spot.

# Japan Trip Itinerary & Travel Handbook

I've completed your 7-day Japan itinerary and travel handbook! Here's what I've created:

1. **Detailed 7-Day Itinerary**: A comprehensive plan covering April 15-23, 2025, with activities in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka. The itinerary balances historical sites, hidden gems, and Japanese cultural experiences you requested (kendo, tea ceremonies, and Zen meditation). It includes a visit to Nara's deer park and opportunities to explore cities on foot.

2. **Proposal Location**: I've recommended the Philosopher's Path in Kyoto as your proposal spot, specifically the quiet area near Honen-in Temple entrance in the early evening. This location offers a beautiful backdrop with a canal, potential cherry blossoms, and a tranquil atmosphere perfect for this special moment.

3. **Budget Planning**: The estimated total cost ranges from $4,975-6,895 for both of you, which fits within your $2,500-5,000 per person budget.

4. **HTML Travel Handbook**: I've created an interactive guide that includes:
   - Maps of all key locations
   - Attraction descriptions with details and tips
   - Essential Japanese phrases with pronunciations
   - Comprehensive travel tips covering transportation, etiquette, dining, and technology
   - A special proposal guide section with timing recommendations

5. **Complete Package**: All files are included in the attached zip file, which you can download and access offline during your trip.

You can preview the HTML travel handbook through the link provided by the exposed port above.
