Yamaguchi Prefecture is the westernmost prefecture in Honshu and connects the island of Kyushu with Honshu.
Yamaguchi Prefecture is famous for its five-arched arch bridge, Kintaikyo, Japan's largest limestone cave, Akiyoshido, and the famous local food product, Fugu (blowfish). You should definitely check them out if you visit Yamaguchi.
In this article, we will introduce the hotels we would recommend when traveling in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
APA Hotel Yamaguchi Hofu
APA Hotel Yamaguchi Hofu is a hotel with easy access to Hofu Tenman-gu Shrine, which is one of the three largest Tenman-gu Shrines in Japan, and the Mori Garden, which has a Japanese garden and estate house in the grounds.
From the higher floors of the APA Hotel Yamaguchi Hofu, you can see the beautiful Chugoku Mountain range.
The variety-rich Japanese and Western-style breakfast buffet includes a morning curry from a curry specialty store and fried fugu. In Yamaguchi Prefecture, there is a custom of reading fugu as “fuku” because the pronunciation is the same as the word that means "luck".
