Leg 1 · Sat, 17.10. · Embarkation

Tokio

Aerial panorama of a small, beautiful tropical island (Mergui Archipelago)

Tokyo is the largest metropolitan area on Earth. Tsukiji market, the quiet Asakusa district with Senso-ji Temple, the pop worlds of Shibuya and Akihabara, plus the view from the Skytree (634 m) - Tokyo combines centuries-old tradition with a high-tech future.

Leg 2 · Mon, 19.10.

Kochi

Bird eye view of Angthong national marine park, koh Samui, Thailand

Kochi on the Malabar Coast of southern India brings together Chinese fishing nets along the harbour, Portuguese colonial buildings in Fort Kochi, an old Jewish synagogue (1568) and Dutch canals. One of the most culturally layered port cities in the Indian Ocean.

Leg 3 · Tue, 20.10.

Hiroshima

Weißer Strand mit Granitfelsen auf einer thailändischen Insel

Hiroshima is both a memorial and a modern metropolis. The Peace Memorial Museum, the Atomic Bomb Dome (UNESCO) and the sacred island of Miyajima opposite, with its floating torii gate, make Hiroshima the most culturally important port of western Japan.

Leg 4 · Wed, 21.10.

Fukuoka (Kyushu)

Bewaldete Karstinseln im tropischen Meer

On the southern Japanese island of Kyushu, Fukuoka is its largest city, set on Hakata Bay and an important gateway to Korea. It is known for ramen food stalls along the Naka River, the Hakata Dontaku spring festival and the historic temples of the Hakata district.

Leg 5 · Thu, 22.10.

Busan

Blick durch tropisches Laub auf eine Kalksteinbucht

Busan is South Korea's second-largest city and its most important port. Jagalchi Fish Market, the colourful Gamcheon district (Korea's "Machu Picchu") and the Beomeosa temple complex in the Geumjeongsan mountains showcase its maritime and Buddhist heritage.

Leg 6 · Fri, 23.10.

Jeju

Einsame tropische Sandbank im türkisfarbenen Meer

Volcanic island off the south coast of South Korea, recognised by UNESCO as a Natural World Heritage Site. Mount Hallasan, the country's highest peak at 1,950 metres, rises above green pastures fringed by lava tubes and black basalt shores.

Leg 7 · Sat, 24.10.

Incheon (Seoul)

Menschenleerer Strand vor bewaldeten Hügeln

On the Yellow Sea, around 30 kilometres west of Seoul, lies Incheon as South Korea's main seaport and the country's third-largest city. General MacArthur landed here in 1950 for the decisive turning point of the Korean War, and today the city impresses with the futuristic Songdo smart city district and one of Asia's largest airports.

Leg 8 · Tue, 27.10.

Sasebo

Leg 9 · Wed, 28.10.

Kagoshima (Kyushu)

Bewaldete Insel im tropischen Flachwasser

Kagoshima is the capital of Kagoshima Prefecture in southern Kyushu. The active volcano Sakurajima across the bay smokes constantly and at times dusts the city with ash. The Senganen Gardens, the samurai tradition and the bold local cuisine define the cityscape.

Leg 10 · Fri, 30.10.

Shimizu

Langer Sandstrand aus der Vogelperspektive

As the port district of Shizuoka city in the prefecture of the same name, Shimizu sits on Suruga Bay on the Pacific. On clear days Mount Fuji rises impressively above the harbour.
