Additionally, the beautiful coastline facing the Seto Inland Sea and gourmet food using fresh local ingredients are attractive. With a combination of industrial strength and sophisticated artistry nurtured by its citizens, it is a city perfect for intellectually curious travelers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
