Episode 2: Eat beef in Kobe, dip in the hot springs (onsen) of Arima, sail the crystal clear waters of the Seto Sea or see a Samurai sword handcrafted in Okayama–these are just some of the experiences you can have exploring Setouchi’s Eastern Route. Since this region has so much to offer, it helps to break it down your travels by routes. We explored the Eastern route and I was astounded by how different and memorable each day was!
Besides the highlights above, I also loved staying at a 300 year old ryokan in the historical town of Kurashiki. And don’t forget the food! We stopped in Kobe to sample the world famous Kobe Beef and then to the neighborhood of Nada, to see how Sake is produced and sample some of Japan’s favorite drink.
Check out this video for recommendations on how to experience a historical and magnificent side of Setouchi, in just a few days!
