The Sanyo and Sanin regions of Japan encompass a wide range of prefectures and locales, taking travelers from the largest cities to the charming, though often overlooked, countryside. Access the sandy beaches of Wakayama, the bustling urbanscape of Osaka, and then keep heading down to see the historic Hiroshima, and then top off your journey with Kyushu, whose largetst city of Fukuoka is a culinary capital with countless activities to offer. 


Fukuoka

 

The southernmost city covered with the pass is Fukuoka, which will surprise visitors through its unique culture; its harbor area, located opposite Korea, was the center of the first exchanges between Japan and the rest of the Asian continent.

Fukuoka has its share of beautiful shrines and temples for those looking for historic sites. One of the most famous districts of Fukuoka, Hakata, is world-renowned by foodies for its street food and legendary Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen, a local noodle delicacy with a broth made of simmered pork bones.

A charming blend of urbanity and tradition, it is a historic area that is a must-travel.

Hiroshima

 

Hiroshima, a relatively short Shinkansen ride from Osaka and Kyoto in Kansai, has earned a poignant place in the world's history where the first atomic bomb was dropped in 1945. But this modern city offers more than just memories. With its Peace Memorial Park, it's a city of hope. It offers visitors numerous tourist attractions, including a reconstructed Hiroshima castle and Shukkei-en gardens

Additionally, Hiroshima is often cited for its culinary culture, providing unique interpretations of Japanese street foods, such as Okonomiyaki, which often has yakisoba at the bottom to differentiate it from the more classic Osaka rendition. Oysters are also a famous delicacy of Hiroshima, often eaten raw or in other dishes. Visit this symbolic city of culture and history!
