Naruto

Toto byl jeden z nejlepších výletů, které jsem si v Japonsku zarezervoval, a to nejen kvůli krásné scenérii, ale také proto, jak skvěle bylo vše předem naplánováno a vysvětleno naším průvodcem Stevem. Předem sdílel užitečné informace ke každému místu, díky čemuž byl zážitek uvolněný a příjemný. Byl jsem ohromen jeho plynulostí v japonštině, angličtině a čínštině 😎 Steve byl přátelský, zdvořilý a laskavý 🙏🏻, díky němu se všichni cítili příjemně, udělal mi skvělé fotky a nikdy nás nenechal samotné, což způsobilo, že se výlet cítil bezpečně a osobně. Výhledy byly dechberoucí i v chladném, větrném dni 🥰 a personál byl hygienický. Místo Happy Pancake bylo vrcholem a Stevovy tipy nám pomohly získat nejlepší místa. Dokonce zajistil, abych měl k obědu horkou vodu na nudle. Spatřit vír ve větrném dni bylo něco zvláštního 🥰 Tanec Awa Odori byl elegantní a zábavný, s živou hudbou, která znemožňovala netancovat – dokonce jsem vyhrál cenu 😍 Tento výlet vřele doporučuji na jaro nebo podzim pro uvolněný, ale ohromující den. 10/10 ⭐️

The tour guide and driver were polite, and the itinerary was well-planned, including time for lunch. Since it was a Saturday, we only had an hour to spend on Awaji Island, and the wait for Shifuku no Pancake was quite long, so we weren't able to try the pancakes, which was a bit disappointing.

The Otsuka Museum of Art was larger than I expected, making it a great place to explore at a leisurely pace. What I liked most was that it brought together world-famous artworks in one place, allowing me to see a wide variety all at once. Although they weren't the original pieces, being able to see so many works in one spot still felt very meaningful. Each space had a different atmosphere, which made the visit more enjoyable, and there were many great spots for taking photos. The walking paths are quite long, so comfortable shoes are a must, but it was a wonderful place to spend time and explore slowly.

The moment I stepped onto the Naruto Whirlpools Walkway, my heart was filled with anticipation. This pathway, built beneath the piers of the Onaruto Bridge, offers a unique vantage point to overlook the world-famous Naruto Whirlpools. It transformed this trip from mere sightseeing into an intimate dialogue with the forces of nature. As I walked along the path, transparent reinforced glass lay beneath my feet, allowing me to look down and see the turbulent currents rushing below. When the tides shifted and the whirlpools gradually formed, the swirling, churning power was truly astonishing. Standing before the viewing windows, watching the immense eddies created by the topography and tidal differences, I couldn't help but marvel at the mystery and unpredictability of nature. These whirlpools were sometimes grand, sometimes intricate, constantly changing, and utterly captivating. For this visit, I specifically chose a time close to the optimal viewing period for the whirlpools. When they reached their peak intensity, the entire sea surface seemed to churn and boil, and the sound of the rushing water resonated through the bridge structure, deeply impacting me. That dual visual and auditory impact was far more memorable than any photo or video, and it made me profoundly appreciate the value of experiencing it firsthand.

Embark on a Naruto whirlpool cruise and experience the awe-inspiring power of the world's largest whirlpool up close! As the rushing currents churn and intertwine beneath your feet, this spectacular natural wonder will leave you breathless. It's an unforgettable adventure and an absolute must-do when visiting Awaji Island.
