The Shanghai-Shimonoseki Ferry started its operation once a week between Shimonoseki Port and Taicang Port(in Suzhou) in September 2006 as a RoRo ship. The Utopia 2 is the largest type of ferry operating between Japan and China. It holds superior qualities in velocity and punctuality and offers a unique service cultivated in Shimonoseki over the years. It possesses a great future for the shipping service between the economic area of Suzhou-Shanghai and Japan and is expected to become a more frequented shipping route as well as a travel path for tourist when it opens to regular passengers.
