    Tokushima Pref. Narutoshi Narutochoutosadomariura Fukuike Naruto park
    This memorial hall is based on the theme of whirlpools and bridges. Inside the building, you’ll find a theater, games, and simulations that teach visitors about the construction of the Onaruto Bridge and the whirlpools that appear in the Naruto Channel. The observation facility on the roof offers a 360-degree view of the Naruto Channel and Onaruto Bridge, as well as the Pacific Ocean side of Wakayama Prefecture and Shodoshima Island in the Seto Inland Sea.

    Fantastic walk under the Onaruto Bridge to view the magnificent whirlpool. Need to be mindful of the timing or else you would not be able to witness one. The whirlpool happens during low tide where...

    Tokushima Pref. Narutoshi Oasachouhinoki Higashiyamada 55-2
    This museum features exhibits on the activities of German soldiers imprisoned at the Bando prisoner-of-war camp, their exchanges with locals, and other subjects. Musical activities in particular thrived at the Bando prisoner-of-war camp, which was the site of the first concert performance of the entirety of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony in Asia. In addition to exhibits and a museum shop, the museum also has large and small conference rooms available for rent.

    This is the museum that was built to remember the German prisoners who spent the war years in a camp run by the Japanese government. The museum itself is very well done and includes many samples of...

    Tokushima Pref. Narutoshi Oasachoubandou Tsukahana 126
    Ryozen-ji Temple is a Koya-san Shingon Buddhist temple that, according to legend, was founded by the monk Gyoki during the Tempyo era (729–749) on the orders of the Shomu Emperor. The Temple’s formal name is Zikuwazan Ichijoin Ryozenji. Selected for inclusion in the “88 Best Places to Visit in Tokushima,” the Ryozen-ji Temple is also the starting-point for the Shikoku 88-temple Pilgrimage, and is affectionately known as Ichi-ban-san (“Number One”). The Temple is visited by white-robed pilgrims throughout the year, and it is possible to purchase Nokyo-cho (stamp-books for collecting the stamps that confirm that a pilgrim has made a donation to a given temple) and pilgrims’ clothing, staffs and bamboo hats etc. Must-see sights at the Temple include a two-storied pagoda housing the Gochi Nyorai Statues (five statues representing different aspects of the wisdom of the Buddha) and the Meiji Garden located on the north side of the Daishi-do hall.

    高層建築と云う程ではありませんが、霊山寺の境内では目立っていました。参拝者の大半が本堂と大師堂に向かう為、多宝塔前は閑散としていましたが、朱塗りでは無い建築が却って特徴的と云えそうでした。

    Tokushima Naruto-shi Muyacho Hayasaki Kitatono Cho 149
    "Located in Myokoyama Park in Natsuyo-cho, Naruto City, this museum exhibits a collection of glass works by Emile Gallé, a French glass artist representing Art Nouveau, and also exhibits paintings by Kozo Mio, known for his work on the cover of ""Focus"". In 2021, the museum was renamed and became Japan's first art museum specializing in NFT art, with space for exhibiting NFT artworks."

    徳島ラーメン いのたに へ行ったついでに散策。入場料1人800円だったが、展示は少なく、蒸し暑いのにエアコンは効いておらず窓が開いていた。駐車場への道中も草が刈られていない。 今まで訪れた観光資源では間違いなくワースト1でしょう。

    お遍路のガイドブックにのっていたので、足ならしに立ち寄ってみました。 一番霊山寺の奥の院にあたる古寺で、別名「種蒔大師」と呼ばれる番外霊場とのことです。 参拝客はおらずひっそりとしており、心静かにお参りできて良かったです。
