What is the largest island in Japan?
Correct!
Honshu is Japan's largest island and also the country's geographic and economic core. Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya and Hiroshima are among the cities located on Honshu. Japan's statistical publications list Honshu at around 231,000 square kilometers. That means the island accounts for just over 61% of Japan's total land area. Japan's highest mountain, Mount Fuji, is also on Honshu. The Japan National Tourism Organization explicitly describes Honshu as Japan's largest island.
