Located just south of the Chugoku region, Shikoku is the smallest of Japan's main islands.
It is also the least populous. The name translates as 'four provinces' and aptly this region consists
of just four prefectures; Ehime, Kagawa, Kochi and Tokushima.
Places to visit:
    Matsuyama - The largest city in Shikoku, it also boasts a beautiful castle.

    Naruto Whirlpool - A natural consequence of the movement of the
                                    Inland Sea and the Pacific Ocean.

    Ritsurin Park - Located in Kagawa (Japan's smallest prefecture), it took
                              one hundred years to make and exhibits one of the best gardens in Japan.
