Sumoto
7.4
Lower score (below 6)
Sumoto is the administrative center of Awaji Island with Sumoto Castle ruins on a low hill overlooking the city and the island's main commercial street running below. Onsen resort hotels along the Awaji coast draw domestic tourists from Kobe and Osaka, and Sumoto is the hub of that island tourism economy. But it's still an island city of 44,000 with limited transport — the southern tip requires slow coastal roads — and while the ryokan hospitality is warm, there's no urban nightlife or social infrastructure for an outsider beyond what a resort stay provides.
