Wakayama Prefecture - Is this Japan? A port town reminiscent of Amalfi.

Saigasaki Port, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture
A nostalgic town of fishermen!
Introducing a port town in Japan that offers scenery reminiscent of overseas!

☑️ Unique landscape with houses densely packed on slopes!
It's a hot topic for its resemblance to the world of Amalfi!

☑️ A town with history!
Narrow alleys and stairs from ancient times are intricately woven like a maze. You can also find old wells that were once used! You can feel the nostalgic fishing village lifestyle and culture!

☑️ Wakayama City and Amalfi, Italy are sister cities!
Daniele Milano, the mayor of Amalfi, and a delegation from Amalfi visited Japan! In Saigasaki, they held a symposium and food fair themed on scenic culture, becoming sister cities by learning about each other's cultures.

From a distance, it looks like a painting from overseas, offering a very beautiful view!
Use this as a reference for Wakayama sightseeing and travel♡
