What is Setouchi?
Featured in the New York Times’ Top 10 travel destinations of 2019, the Setouchi area of Japan has landed on almost every traveler’s list in recent years.
Most of us make our home here, so we take it for granted,
but nowhere in Japan can you find the same natural beauty,
the same delectable food, or the same warm-hearted people.
