Tokushima Hidden Gems

Porte orientale de Shikoku, où les tourbillons de Naruto comptent parmi les plus grands du monde. Le festival Awa Odori d'août est la danse la plus effrénée du Japon. Le pont de lianes d'Iya surplombe un gouffre vertigineux, et le Musée Otsuka reproduit des chefs-d'œuvre de l'art universel en céramique.

9 spots

Des vallées montagneuses traversées par des ponts de lianes, un détroit rempli de tourbillons et le festival de danse le plus célèbre du Japon.

Climat et meilleure saison

Chaud et pluvieux, exposé aux typhons en fin d'été ; la vallée d'Iya est plus fraîche et reçoit un peu de neige. Août pour l'Awa Odori.
