Onomichi Travel Tips
Onomichi (尾道) is a charming town nestled along the picturesque Seto Inland Sea in eastern Hiroshima Prefecture. This quaint town extends across the mainland and neighboring islands, all linked by the scenic Shimanami Kaido bridges. Small ferries add to the nostalgic port atmosphere, making it easy to explore the nearby islands. The town's unique slopes create a delightful maze, where attractions are interwoven with narrow lanes and residential areas. The famous Temple Walk invites visitors to discover 25 temples, each revealing the town’s rich history and serene beauty.
Despite its small size, Onomichi has made a significant mark in literature and cinema. Many renowned authors and filmmakers hail from this town, and it has served as a backdrop for numerous films and TV dramas. Visitors can delve into this artistic legacy at several museums along the Temple Walk. A highlight of the region is the Shimanami Kaido, the only land route connecting Honshu and Shikoku accessible by pedestrians and cyclists. Along this scenic path, attractions like the Hirayama Museum and Kosanji Temple await discovery.
