Japan offers a unique blend of ancient traditions and cutting-edge modernity. Shodoshima, known as the 'Olive Island', is the second-largest island in the Seto Inland Sea and a fascinating destination for travellers. Visitors can explore the island's olive plantations, which resemble Mediterranean landscapes, or visit the stunning Kankakei Gorge, one of Japan's three most beautiful ravines. The island is also famous for its traditional soy sauce factories and the Angel Road, a natural sandbar that appears at low tide. Japan hosts many yearly festivals, including the colourful Cherry Blossom Festival in spring and the dramatic Nebuta Festival in summer with its illuminated floats. From Japanese ports, ferry connections offer easy travel to South Korea, Russia, and other Japanese islands, making it a great base for exploring East Asia. The country's efficient ferry network lets visitors island-hop and discover hidden coastal gems throughout the Japanese archipelago.
