Nachi-Katsuura is a port town known as the temple town of the World Heritage "Kumano Nachi Taisha" and as one of Japan's leading tuna hubs. The city's symbol, "Nachi Falls," is an overwhelming sight as it cascades vertically from the primeval forest, and its contrast with the adjacent Seiganto-ji Temple's three-storied pagoda is a representative spectacular view of Japan. In the early morning at Katsuura Fishing Port, you can observe auctions where giant tuna are lined up, and savoring fresh seafood dishes is a highlight of the trip. Hot springs are also abundant, and unique bathing facilities such as cave open-air baths facing the sea are popular. It is an ideal spot for active travelers wanting to experience historic pilgrimage culture and the blessings of the sea at once.
