Mishima, Remote island near Hagi, Japan
The island spans 7.73 square kilometers in the Sea of Japan and maintains a population of 829 residents across 458 households.
The Battle of Tsushima in 1905 occurred near Mishima Island, leading to the Russian forces surrendering to the Japanese military.
The local Mishima cattle breed, designated as a Japanese National Treasure in 1928, represents one of only two native Japanese cattle breeds remaining.
Travelers reach the island through regular ferry services from Hagi port, with the journey covering a distance of 44 kilometers.
The island produces dark red basaltic Mishima clay, rich in iron content, which potters use to create traditional Hagi ware pottery.
