Three roadside stations on the Shimanami Kaido
Roadside stations are often thought of as places to stop off during a drive, but they are so much more than that.
They have restaurants where you can casually sample local cuisine, shops where you can buy souvenirs that can only be found in that area, and you can rent a bicycle to tour the surrounding area... They
are not just resting places, but are also becoming increasingly popular as tourist spots where you can fully enjoy the charms of the region.
We will introduce you to recommended roadside stations and other facilities where you can soothe yourself with the spectacular views of Shimanami and further enhance the enjoyment of your trip!
Please be sure to check them out when you visit the Shimanami Kaido.
