About Kashiko Island
Kashiko Island is an island. Location: Mie, Japan. Population: 217.
Kashiko Island (賢島, Kashiko-jima) is an island in Ago Bay. It is in the city of Shima, Mie Prefecture, Japan. Although human presence in the Jōmon period has been attested, the island was uninhabited until 1929, when a railway built by Shima Electric Railway (now known as the Shima Line) was constructed to serve as the endpoint of the line. This railway sparked the creation of a tourism industry that still thrives.
