Onomichi
A hillside port town of ramen and sea views
Onomichi is a port town on the Seto Inland Sea, about an hour by shinkansen from Shin-Osaka to Fukuyama, then 20 minutes on a local train. Its ramen, a soy-sauce soup made with stock from small local fish and dotted with bits of pork back fat, spread from food stalls by the harbor. Ride the ropeway up the hill to look down on the narrow sea channel and tiled roofs, then walk down the slopes for a bowl near the shopping street.
Do
Drink fresh beer next to the tanks it came from
All over Japan, small craft breweries pour their beer in taprooms set right beside the brewing tanks, so what you drink was made a few steps away. Order a few small glasses to compare styles, often with food made to go with them. The places in and around Tokyo make an easy evening out, while those farther away fit into a longer trip through the region.
Do
Look down on the town from a hilltop cafe
In Japan's hillside port towns, some cafes and viewing rooms sit high above the streets, and from their windows the rooftops, harbor and sea spread out below you. Order a drink or a sweet, sit back and let the view be the main event. All of these are in western Japan, between Hiroshima and Nagasaki, so they fit best into a trip to that region.
