This summer, Japan is also experiencing intense “extreme heat,” so travelers looking to take a vacation in Japan should head for hidden escapes for a cooling trip. The Shimanto River in Kochi, Shikoku, is known as the “last clear stream of Japan.” Its pristine water remains cool even in summer. Here, you can not only take a sightseeing boat cruise and experience traditional fishing methods with local fishermen, but also paddle a canoe to fully enjoy water activities, or cycle along the riverbank and admire the mountain and forest scenery. Kochi Prefecture is currently recruiting mystery travelers. Just share what kind of summer experience you’d like to have, and you might win a chance to visit Kochi for a free 5-day, 4-night hidden escape journey.
