Wakayama

Stretching long from north to south, Wakayama Prefecture is blessed with great natural beauty of ocean, mountains, and rivers. In addition to water activities such as sea bathing and SUP, trekking along the Kumano Kodo and Koya Pilgrimage Routes and fruit picking are also attractive. Home to two World Heritage sites, Koyasan and Kumano Kodo, another major feature of Wakayama is that it attracts many people from Japan and abroad. Blessed with high-quality hot springs, Wakayama is also known as one of the best "hot spring resorts" in the Kansai region. The "three most beautiful hot springs in Japan," Ryujin Onsen, and Shirahama Onsen, one of the "three oldest hot springs in Japan," are just a few of the superb hot springs that await you.
