2025 Wakayama Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#train #kata #sightseeing train #featured station #tai Kata is a tourist attraction located near the Izumisano seaside in Wakayama. It is also a favorite riding spot for bicycle enthusiasts. It is very suitable for arranging a one-day trip~ The "Kada Line" of Nankai Electric Railway in northern Wakayama is rich in sea bream along the coast. The local area specially designed a tai train connecting Wakayama Station to Kata Station. There are four types of models: pink, red, blue, and black. This time I just chose the pink one! The sea bream tram not only has a cute and eye-catching appearance, but the marine life handles are also a highlight. In addition, sea bream also has the characteristic of having one partner for a lifetime. Riding this series of trains represents happiness and perfection, and also has the beautiful meaning of "holding hands until old age". If you don't have a means of transportation, you can take the train. The train is located on a small slope. The train is themed with sea bream, which is very cute. 📍Address: 1038-1 Kada, Wakayama, 640-0103 Japan #和歌山 #旅游景点 #和歌山景点

Visitors are required to remove their shoes when entering to maintain its original appearance and cleanliness. This setup not only brings you closer to nature but also allows you to experience traditional Japanese culture more deeply.

This bowl of noodles has a very fragrant onion flavor, and the soup is a soy sauce pork bone soup base, which is fragrant and fragrant. The quality of the noodles and barbecued pork are normal. If you want to try special ramen, you must try it. You will definitely discover a new ramen experience. 😊

One of the most visited tourist spot at Wakayama, Kuroshio Market. It is cleaner and tidier than that at Osaka, which made us feel more comfortable. There are separated stalls which sell sashimi, skewers, sushi, juices and drinks, etc. We grabbed some sushi including scallop and tuna, and also a bowl of sashimi rice with different parts of tuna. Also some eel&egg and shrimp skewers, and last but not least local mandarin juice, which is one of the must drink. The shrimp was bad as they were very overcooked due to prolonged heating, but the rest were fine. We also enjoyed the tuna cutting show. The market is surrounded by a fruit market, an amusement park so you can visit multiple places at the same time.

#2023travelwish One of the attractions to visit in Wakayama Prefecture in southern Japan is the Wakayama Castle. It sits on a hill overlooking almost the entire Wakayama City. Before you reached the castle, you will pass by a beautiful garden and a bridge in a lake. Entrace fee to the castle is 400 yen.

This is a very worthwhile attraction near the Kuroshio Market. It is very suitable for taking a walk, enjoying the sea breeze and watching the sea after having a full meal at the Kuroshio Market. 📍 1527 Maomi, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture 🚌 Transfer to all buses that can reach " " at JR Wakayama Station 🎫 Free admission/Unlimited rides ticket Adults 3800 yen; Children 3200 yen From the bus stop, you can see that the streets of Marina City are all European-style buildings.

If it is a family trip, it is also a good place for children to release their energy; if couples come, there are also many beautiful scenery to take photos.

📍Location: CANDEO HOTELS Nankai Wakayama 〒640-8203 Wakayama Prefecture, Wakayama City, Higashikuramaecho 39 Kino 💰Price per person: Around 10,000 yen per night I think it's cheaper than other CANDEO HOTELS in other regions🤔 When I stayed, it was about 8,000 yen per night 💞Reasons for recommendation: The location is excellent, right next to the station! It's convenient for both sightseeing and work😊 The view from the hotel is great! The view from the room was good, and the breakfast area also had a great view✨ The rooms are spacious! I stayed in a room with a balcony, so it felt even more spacious❤️ The hotel itself is clean and quiet! The staff were all very polite😊 The rooftop sky spa is incredibly relaxing with a great sense of openness! It seems you can also come just to use the bath🥰

If you're looking for a less-traveled destination in Kansai, Wakayama is highly recommended. It's charming and fulfilling without the need for rushed sightseeing. If you have enough time, you can extend your trip further south. 🏯 Must-see attractions: 1. Wakayama Castle🍁🌸 One of Japan's top 100 castles, built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The panoramic view from the castle tower is breathtaking. The spring cherry blossom season (late March to early April) is particularly stunning, with the entire city covered in pink cherry blossoms. The Momijidani Garden at the foot of the castle is also recommended. It's a small, beautiful Japanese garden that should be gorgeous during the autumn foliage season. I visited a little early, just as the leaves were starting to change color, but it was very peaceful. Opening hours: 09:00-17:30, admission is approx. JPY 410, with discounts available for Kansai Wide Area Pass holders. 2. Tamaden Train Line🚇 Before going, I wondered what was so special about a train line!

I saw a Kumano Kodo Trail sign at a small station along the way, which I'd like to experience next time. 🍱Food destinations: Wakayama ramen and the hidden gem Michelin-recommended eel restaurant, Niyoryo, both offer excellent dining experiences and delicious food. 🚉Transportation guide: Osaka to Wakayama: Take the JR Kuroshio train, which takes about an hour. There are frequent departures.

Local transportation: Buses and the Kishigawa Line cover most areas, making it convenient to travel by public transport. 📝Tips: Wakayama JR Station has MIO and Kintetsu department stores, making it convenient for shopping and buying souvenirs.
