Shirahama Beach 🏖️

The panda elements in Shirahama are just too dense! 🏖️ From Shirahama Station to the gardens in front of ordinary people's homes, there are pandas everywhere—graffiti, decorations, gachapon machines, souvenirs... After some research, I found out that Shirahama is the largest overseas panda breeding center, having partnered with the Chengdu Panda Breeding Center for 30 years. 🌿 All the pandas with the "Hama" name were born here. As a person from Chengdu, I felt an extra sense of familiarity. 🐼 🏖️ Overall, Shirahama feels like a mini version of the Great Ocean Road. Although the coastline isn't as dramatic, it's all about the leisurely pace and rich travel experience, perfect for a relaxing vacation. 🌿 If you just visit the main attractions, you can take your time and finish in a day or two, but it's also great to stay for a few days and live like a local. 🌴 #JapanTravelGuide 🌿 #Wakayama 🌟
