Ehime Hidden Gems

El reino del onsen y los cítricos en Shikoku. El Dogo Onsen Honkan, la casa de baños más antigua de Japón e inspiración de El viaje de Chihiro, tiene más de 3 000 años de historia termal. La ruta ciclista Shimanami Kaido conecta seis islas, y el castillo de Matsuyama corona una colina con vistas al mar Interior.

9 spots

Huertos de cítricos junto al mar Interior y una fuente termal que se dice es la más antigua de Japón, al pie de un castillo en la cima de una colina.

Clima y mejor temporada

Templado y soleado en la costa, más húmedo y fresco en las montañas del sur. Bueno todo el año; los cítricos alcanzan su mejor momento en invierno.
