I've heard Japan is good for it's history as well, with all the ancient things here and there and all the stories that go along with it. I kind of retract what I said about it being for weebs (even though it was a joke), I was only thinking of the more populated, city areas and not the rural and open areas of Japan where you can find raw stories to investigate.
