Read my previous blog post on Kanagawa’s Miura Kaigan and Misaki Maguro Ticket!
It is my first time to Yokosuka, a city in Kanagawa Prefecture. It is most well-known for its history as a naval port. There are lots to see and do here such as Memorial Ship Mikasa, Yokosuka Military Port tour, Yokosuka Port Market and more.
Today we are going to Kannonzaki, a resort park with art museum, spa, hotel and stylish restaurants!
Kanagawa is one of the prefectures I go back the most often other than Tokyo, because it simply has too many attractions full of local charms to offer.
Think famous hot spring and shrine in Hakone, stylish, romantic port city Yokohama, “Little Kyoto” Kamakura, summer beach vacation at Zushi, even my favorite service area Ebina (which I think has world best toilet system haha), are all in Kanagawa Prefecture. Kanagawa is my favorite!!! (Just don’t let other 46 prefectures know ok.)
I have conquered 45/47 prefectures as of today, and Chiba was my first ever prefecture, and likely yours if you have been to Japan before. Why?
Narita Airport! If you flew in via Narita International Airport, you have officially set foot in Chiba prefecture. And if you have to been to Tokyo Disneyland or Tokyo DisneySea, you have also conquered Chiba prefecture. Despite the “Tokyo” in its name, Tokyo Disney Resort is actually located in Chiba prefecture.
So! What is there to see or do in Chiba, other than these two famous attractions that you have already known? I have a few other blog posts under Chiba Prefecture, you can read all of them here!

Today I’d like to introduce the second JR West Rail Pass:
I hope you have a better idea on JR West Rail Passes after reading my previous blog post. ^^
So now, sample itinerary time!
The first pass I’ll be introducing is Sanyo-San’in Area Pass. This pass is valid for 7 days, here’s a sample itinerary that brings you across 6 prefectures in 7D7N (or 7D6N) with minimum change of hotels so that you won’t have to haul your luggage everywhere with you! You will be staying 2 nights in Hiroshima, 3 nights in Okayama and 1 or 2 night(s) in Osaka. ^^
I’m so excited for this post! It was written the very next morning after I came back from my 7-day #CheesieConquersWestJapan trip.
Before I even start the post, I want to thank JR West for giving me this wonderful opportunity to travel through 10 different prefectures in 7 days, conquering 3 new prefectures, meeting many amazing people (and a couple of miracle encounters along the way), laughing a lot, and most importantly, feeling the love of Japan, more than ever.

On my second last day of Tokyo trip this December, I have gone on yet another half-day mini tour in Tokyo with Tokyo Sightseeing taxi again, and this time I went for a modified version of Model Course 6: Japan Culture, Art and Artisanship. You can view all the model courses on this website!
Tokyo is such an iconic, fascinating city that I think many people in this world would love to visit at least once in their life time.
