"Noto: An Unexplored Corner of Japan" by Percival Lowell is a travel book published in 1891. The work chronicles Lowell's 1886 expedition from Tokyo to the remote Noto Peninsula on Japan's western coast.

The book captures his observations of landscapes, encounters, and reflections during this venture into one of Japan's less-traveled regions.
