Hyogo Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

prefecture of Japan

About Hyogo

To the south Hyogo faces the Seto Inland Sea. In ancient times Inland Sea was the economic lifeblood of Japan, linking the capitals of Kyoto and Nara to trade with the Korean peninsula and China, while supplying a seemingly endless supply of fish. The Inland Sea still ensures the livelihood of millions of Japanese. It's no surprise then that most of Harima's population (and tourist sites) can be found near the coast, in cities like Ako, Akashi, Kakogawa, and Himeji.
