Shikoku-Karst.
#1



I have been to a karst plateau called Shikoku-Karst in Shikoku I live here in Japan.
This place is so-so famous around west Japan as the karst plateau.
The scenery is so fantastic and panoramic and the air is cool even in Summer.
So a lot of riders often go there during Japanese terrible too hot Summer. Ha ha
Of course there are some beautiful seaside lines too but I won’t go there in Summer.
Especially Summer in Japan this year is crazy….Too Hot…..Boooo….

Japan is such a beautiful country and all those mountains have to mean good riding. Smile

Hi.
Thanks for your comment.
About the height.
Top of the Shikoku-Karst is about 1,400m. ( About 4,600 feet. )
So that place is cooler than my town.Smile
There is a long tunnel called Kanpusan-tunnel on the way.
It has about 5km. ( About 3.1 miles.)
That tunnel is like a natural air conditioner. Ha ha ha

There are many good sceneries here in Japan even though the space of islands are much smaller than your country US. Ha ha

Not to be fussy, but my country's Australia. It's also pretty big but lacks the scenic variety of the the US. And Japan too, perhaps.

Hi.
Thanks for writing back.
I aporisize you because I mistook your country. So sorry.
My daughter has been to your country several years ago for a short stay.
I also really go to visit Australia someday too.
Fore sure theater are various sightseeing spots here in Japan as you wrote.
Especially riding in countryside like my area is so much fun.Smile

I happen to love the desert so, though I've never been there, the scenery I've viewed is astonishing and varied. There is certainly plenty of space for everyone there, but (sorry but I have been waiting for a chance to say this):

"When you go to Australia, declare everything."

Piunit, there was no need to apologize to me for the mistake about my country. Many of your country men and women visit here and I hope you get the opportunity to be one of them some day soon.

Ulvetanna was writing to all forum members. His final reference was to a recent incident involving his countryman, Johnny Depp, who came to Australia to film a movie. He bought his partner—legally—and their two dogs illegally. They were caught. You could search Google for reports of the story.
