17. The Hidden Gems of Japan’s Seto Inland Sea
While Tokyo and Kyoto dominate most itineraries, the Seto Inland Sea between Japan’s main islands remains a cultural and artistic treasure trove. This region is home to the Naoshima Art Island, where cutting-edge contemporary art meets traditional Japanese landscapes. Quaint fishing villages, floating torii gates, and stunning island-hopping adventures make this an incredible alternative to Japan’s tourist-heavy hotspots. Rent a bike, soak in an onsen, and experience Japan at a slow, peaceful pace.
