Ehime Hidden Gems

Le royaume du onsen et des agrumes à Shikoku. Le Dogo Onsen Honkan, le plus ancien bain public du Japon et inspiration du Voyage de Chihiro, possède plus de 3 000 ans d'histoire thermale. La route cyclable Shimanami Kaido relie six îles, et le château de Matsuyama domine une colline avec vue sur la mer Intérieure.

9 spots

Vergers d'agrumes en bord de mer intérieure et une source thermale réputée la plus ancienne du Japon, au pied d'un château perché.

Climat et meilleure saison

Tempéré et ensoleillé sur la côte, plus humide et frais dans les montagnes du sud. Bon toute l'année ; les agrumes sont à leur meilleur en hiver.
