The radar chart enables users to visualize the unique traits of different areas at a glance and simplifying the decision-making process for selecting travel destinations. By displaying information visually, the tool provides an intuitive way to grasp regional highlights that might not be fully conveyed through text or images alone.

The radar charts evaluate six key categories: "Nature/Scenery," "Activities," "Cuisine," "Shopping," "Hot Springs & Accommodation," and "Cultural Heritage." Each category is rated on a five-point scale, and users can search for areas that best match their preferences. The system will suggest up to four regions that align closely with the selected criteria.

Additionally, the feature highlights up to three regions with similar characteristics to the search results. Each region's detailed page includes information such as unique features, must-see attractions, popular spots, related articles, and model itineraries. The platform also integrates planning and booking tools, making it easy to craft personalized travel plans.

This service is designed to help international travelers unfamiliar with Japan gain a clearer understanding of the distinct characteristics of various regions across the country.
