About the tour
A nine-day journey through the southern part of Honshu will reveal the Chugoku region — little-known yet rich in history and natural beauty. You will visit cities of ceramics and swords, explore the sacred Miyajima Island with its shrine in the sea, walk through samurai quarters, and admire karst caves, Japanese gardens, and sand dunes. This itinerary is ideal for those who want to see authentic Japan away from the tourist crowds.
Program
Arrival in Okayama and an excursion to Bizen — a city with a thousand-year history of ceramics and samurai swords. You will stroll through the streets of the artisan village, see ancient kilns, and learn about Bizen ceramic techniques at a specialized museum and gallery. The day concludes with a visit to the Shinto shrine of Amazu, decorated with ceramic figurines.
