Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: "The Seto Inland Sea (Seto Naikai), often shortened to Inland Sea, is the body of water separating Honshū, Shikoku, and Kyūshū, three of the main islands of Japan. It serves as an international waterway, connecting the Pacific Ocean to the Sea of Japan. It connects to Osaka Bay and provides a sea transport link to industrial centers in the Kansai region, including Osaka and Kobe...Yamaguchi, Hiroshima, Okayama, Hyōgo, Osaka, Kagawa, Ehime, Fukuoka, and Ōita prefectures all have coastlines on the Inland Sea; the cities of Hiroshima, Iwakuni, Takamatsu, and Matsuyama are also located on it."--Wikipedia. Note: Possibly a photograph of the Utaka-Kokudō Ferry. This ferry offers regular services between the Uno area of Tamano in Okayama Prefecture and Takamatsu. The ferry sails across the Seto Inland Sea between a number of islands.--Wikitravel. Note: "Takamatsu...is a port city located on the Seto Inland Sea, and is the closest port to Honshu from Shikoku island."--Wikipedia. |
