  • Kagawa Bonsai Flourishing Around the World
    KAGAWA BONSA I Kagawa Bonsai Flourishing Around the World About Kagawa Prefecture Shikoku is Japan's fourth largest island, southwest of Japan's main island Honshu, and is divided into four prefectures: Kagawa, Tokushima, Ehime and Kochi. Situated in the northeast part of Shikoku, Kagawa is the Japan’s smallest prefecture and is connected to Honshu by the Seto Ohashi Bridge which crosses the Seto Inland Sea at the north. Kagawa is blessed with rich nature and a gentle climate which is warm through the seasons with little rain and long sunshine durations. Attracted by such abundant climate and geographic advantage, the Japanese government and private sectors set up many of their branches and offices in the capital of the prefecture, Takamatsu City and make the city as a hub of Shikoku.
