Shimonoseki Port

Shimonoseki Port, facing the Kanmon Straits, is located at the westernmost tip of Honshu and has long served as a gateway to the continent. Beyond the city's history as a strait city and the appeal of its local cuisine (fugu, sea urchin, whale, and monkfish), the beautiful scenery of the Kanmon Straits is sure to bring a sense of calm to all visitors.
