Hey Everybody,
Very cool episode of "journeys in japan" coming up on 6/15. At first I thought of the famous character! But its actually a place, which also happens to have a lot of character. The show, focuses on Naruto City in Tokushima Prefecture and introduces the locals who have made use of nature's bounty in unusual ways to create tons of cool products.
Coming from the forest I don't know much about the sea, but the locals of Naruto sure do. The sea off Naruto City has a strong current that flows at about 20 kilometers per hour and forms natural whirlpools that can get as big as 30 meters. The fish get all tossed about which people say make them particularly tasty, and probably very dizzy.
A fish called the sea bream is known to be the tastiest!
We will also visit a popular museum with a collection of artworks tiles made from the sea sand of Naruto.
Naruto is becoming famous for its LED lights! You'll also see a very unique festival of the area. Check out the show! It will be on several times on June 15th. If you'd like to visit yourself here is a map. Though you might have to get on an airplane or two!

To reach Naruto City, take a 1 hour 15 minutes flight from Tokyo to Tokushima Awa-odori Airport, and a bus ride for approximately 30 minutes.
Highway buses are convenient from Osaka as the ride takes just 1 hour.
