West Japan 9-Day Tour: Osaka, Kurashiki, Hiroshima, Miyajima & Fukuoka
✨ Highlights
Osaka to Fukuoka in a straight line west, ending on a different island. Osaka's markets and neon, a day in Kurashiki's canal quarter, Hiroshima's Peace Park and the island shrine of Miyajima, then across the strait to Kyushu: Fukuoka's yatai food stalls, Dazaifu shrine, and a day trip to Nagasaki. Open-jaw flights (in KIX, out FUK) mean no backtracking.
