Sanagi Island

Reviewed By Dreamer46023

Sanagi Island is a great place to visit if you're a cat lover. There are about a hundred cats on Sanagi Island. They are very friendly and photogenic. The only place to stay is a nice hostel. If you're only there for a day trip, you can get some lunch food at the hostel. We really enjoyed three days of wandering up and down the island photographing the cats. The host and hostess at the hostel do not speak much English, and I didn't speak much Japanese, but we got along just fine with sign language, our limited vocabularies and google translate. We actually had some long conversations about the status of the cats just standing side by side and reading each other's phones. I learned how to best use google translate. Short sentence, not long, complex sentences that can generate strange translations so that we end up all laughing once we realize what happened. The host and hostess are very kind, helpful and have a good sense of humor. It is a very peaceful place to visit.

Ritsurin Garden

Ritsurin Garden is a superb cultural asset that conveys the characteristics of the daimyo strolling gardens that were typically seen in the 17th and 18th century. A daimyo strolling garden is a type of traditional Japanese garden in which ponds and hills are expertly constructed over a vast tract of land, and you can enjoy the garden's space as you leisurely walk around inside.

This garden is full of beautiful detail. The trees are manicured immaculately and the landscaping of each view is exquisite. Even though we visited in early November and the autumn colours weren't yet fully showing the garden still looked fantastic.

Naoshima

Reviewed By Rosco49 - Perth, Australia

Our time frame was too tight to stay any longer than the day visit. We found the islands transport system was very efficient & inexpensive. We chose to take the bus to the end of the line for a fee of 100 Yen, then the free shuttle thru to the end museum “Chichu Art Museum” then to walk back to the return bus & checking out the various art works along the way. Menu photo opportunities. Our schedule didn’t allow time to look at the many other attractions along the way. The arrive early & had a wonderful breakfast at Sparkie blended coffee. Very good price & delicious. A late lunch at Yuunagi cafe before leaving.
