Discover The Shikoku Region
Shikoku is by far the most remote and least traveled of all regions within Japan. As the region doesn't have access to the bullet-train, it is often overlooked.
Nevertheless, the region has some of the best natural wonders in all of Japan. Make a pilgrimage to the Buddhist temples, or attend one of several festivals. Take time to sample the local udon, or the many citrus fruits grown in the region.
