Osaka is one of the most-visited cities in Japan. Its castle, first built in 1586, is the largest in Japan. Universal Studios has created a theme park in the city that attracts ten million visitors per year. Osaka is the second largest urban area in Japan and, as such, has several railway stations in addition to the mainline shinkansen. It also has Japan’s second international airport, Kansai, located on a man-made island in the bay. It is also close to Kobe, where most cruise ships dock, and is included on this map with an inset of the town centre. Side 2 covers western Japan, from Nagoya to Shimonoseki, so all of the western portion of Honshu Island, including Kyoto, Nara, Okayama, Hiroshima, and Matsui. The shinkansen lines are shown prominently, as well as regular train lines, motorways, and main roads. This map covers all the areas most visited by tourists exploring Japan.
