Chugoku

Tottori

Japan's least populated prefecture, where the local ramen broth is uniquely made from beef bones instead of pork or chicken. Known for its incredible sand dunes, delicious snow crab, status as Japan's biggest per-capita coffee consumer, and having the most dangerous national treasure. It certainly sounds like a place not to be missed.
