Awaji Island, boasting the largest area in the Seto Inland Sea, is a mysterious place considered the "first island born in Japan" in Japanese mythology. From the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge at the northern tip to the Naruto Whirlpools at the southern tip, the entire island is full of dynamic views. Long called "Miketsukuni" (Land of Royal Food), it is known as a treasure trove of ingredients such as fresh seafood, high-sugar onions, and Awaji Beef. Recently, the island has also seen an abundance of latest attraction facilities like "Nijigen no Mori," where you can experience the worldviews of anime and games. It is a healing and exciting resort island where historic shrine visits, beautiful flower fields, and hot springs are exquisitely mixed with Japanese traditions and the latest trends.
