Located along the Seto Inland Sea in western Honshu, Japan, Onomichi is a charming city known for its picturesque, old-world atmosphere. As a city with over a thousand years of history, Onomichi is teeming with historic temples and hillside lanes waiting to be explored. It's also widely recognized for the Temple Walk, a route that connects more than 25 beautifully preserved temples, providing a serene and spiritual experience for visitors. Along with its rich history and cultural importance, the city is also known as the starting point of the famous Shimanami Kaido, a scenic 60-kilometer bike route across six islands in the Seto Inland Sea making it a must-visit destination for cyclists as well.

Japan, located in East Asia, is an extraordinarily beautiful island nation famed for its diverse blend of centuries-old traditions and cutting-edge technology. Known for its impressive cluster of skyscrapers in Tokyo, the ancient temples and geishas of Kyoto, the mesmerizing cherry blossoms in Hakone, and the delectable sushi and ramen, Japan offers a wealth of unrivaled experiences. The country is renowned for its impressive Shinkansen, or bullet trains, that deliver travelers across its four main islands while providing breathtaking scenic views. Japan also stands out for its respect for nature, which is reflected in its numerous stunning gardens and gorgeous Mount Fuji, a dormant volcano and the country's highest peak.

All travelers from the United States, Canada, and Australia are advised by their respective governments to take normal security and safety precautions while traveling in Japan. This includes being aware of local customs and laws, knowing your location and routes, keeping personal belongings safe, and taking care of your health.

I highly recommend doing the shimanami kaido cycling route from Onomichi to Imabari, I felt safe and it was easily the best travel experience so far. Anyone can do the route even if you don’t want to cycle and just want to take the train instead. The surrounding towns are very inexpensive and there’s a lot to do and see. The best view of the cherry blossoms I had was here, it wasn’t crowded at all and it felt very local.
