    Kagawa Pref. Shouzugunshoudoshimachou Tanoura
    This is a theme park that has repurposed the open set that served as the filming location in the 1987 movie Twenty-Four Eyes. Homes, the school and fishermen’s residences that stand side-by-side harken back to the early Showa period and convey the appearance of the film’s world. In addition to the Tsuboi Sakae Memorial Museum dedicated to the author of the novel the film was based on, the Shochikuza Movie Theater that regularly screens Twenty-Four Eyes, and the “Kinema no Iori” gallery that introduces various Japanese films of the 1950s, there is also a restaurant and cafe on site.

    Fantastic location, on the tip of a peninsula. If the weather is nice, the seaside view is tremendous. Familiarity with the 1954 film would add value to the experience, but the old sets are quaint...

    Kagawa Pref. Mitoyoshi Niochounio Otsu 203-3
    This roughly one-kilometer long beach is also known as the Salar de Uyuni of Japan. It's been designated one of the Japan’s 100 best sunset destinations. The scenery is truly superb between 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after sunset when two conditions are satisfied: the tide and sunset coincide and there is no wind to make waves on the surface of the water.

    We plan to visit this beach to take amazing photos like other visitors however we forgot to do enough research and came here around noon. The beach is quite large and a bit windy. It s a nice beach...

    Kagawa Pref. Shouzugunshoudoshimachou Tanoura Jia 977-1
    This is a spot that is famous for serving as a location for the filming of the 1954movie Twenty-Four Eyes. Ever since it was built in 1902 it was used as the Noma Elementary School Tanoura Branch for approximately 70 years. The classrooms remain as they were at the time with desks, an organ and creations by schoolchildren left behind, and there is no end to the visits by fans of the film and original novel.

    何の感慨も受けなかった場所でした。小さな机がかろうじて自らの７０年ほど前の小学校入学時代を思い出した程度で。元々、小説の舞台として取り上げられただけなので、色々と誇張も創作も入っており、入場料払ってまで観覧しないといけない場所とまでは思っていなかった。原作者にも小説にもそれほどの魅力も感じていないし・・・但し、ここはまだ現場、単なるイミテーションのロケセットの場所である二十四の瞳映画村よりは良かっ...

    Kagawa Pref. Kanonjishi Ariakechou
    Zenigata Sunae is a large sand carving of an old copper coin used in the Edo period. It is located in the Kotohiki Park, a nationally designated place of scenic beauty. The impressive looking sand carving is 122 meters in length from east to west and 90 meters from north to south. For best views it is recommended to look from the top of Mt. Kotohiki. In recent years the place has gained a reputation for bringing good luck in terms of money, and at night the sand carving is lit up making for quite an impressive sight.

    Kagawa Takamatsu-shi Aji Cho 5824-4
    The name of this antique shop means “nap” in French. Operating out of a black-doored warehouse with no sign, the shop offers a variety of antique furniture and curios. Like an old-fashioned secondhand store, the shop’s collection of furniture has been assembled without regard to specific styles or eras; most of it was purchased in and brought over from the U.K. The shop’s knickknacks from the Czech Republic, Belgium, France, and numerous other countries are simple yet adorable. Customers rave that, enwrapped in the shop’s unique atmosphere, you’ll completely forget about the time as you hunt for fascinating and attractive antiques.

    We visites this place thanks to a very nice Obasan. She bring us to the Koto local club concert , to a samurai very nice picture exhibition and also to the cofee shop. Very nice place and eternal...

  • Neagari Pine
    Travel / Tourism
    Kagawa Kanonji Yahatacho 2-7-2
    This black pine tree stands on the east side of Place of Scenic Beauty-designated Kotohiki Park, which is also a part of Setonaikai National Park. “Neagari” means “rising roots,” and as its name implies, the roots of this ancient pine are exposed and rise high off the ground. It is believed this is a result of several conditions working together, including the weathering of the ground over the years and the pine’s age, but regardless as to how it came to look like it does, the pine is one of only a few examples found in the country with such stunningly exposed roots and which is also still growing quite vigorously. “Neagari” can also mean “rising prices” or “rising value” in Japanese, and as such the pine is also famously believed to improve financial luck and is visited by people from across the country to pray for a salary raise or for the price of their favorite stock to rise.

  • Marutani Seimen
    Travel / Tourism
    Kagawa Takamatsu-shi Ajicho Ou No
    This udon noodle restaurant, located a10-minute walk from Kotoden Enza Station, can be identified from the closes intersection by its large sign. The restaurant has a retro atmosphere and serves orthodox handmade udon. Customers particularly love the chewy, springy noodles of the Bukkake Udon, which exudes the rich flavor of the dashi stock used to make it. Desiring to enable customers to enjoy fresh-made noodles, the restaurant does not keep a large stock of noodles ready to eat lying around. Closely tied to the local community, on weekends locals often line up to purchase packets of noodles to take home and eat.

Kagawa Areas

around-area-map

Japan’s smallest prefecture, Kagawa, may take up just a small corner of Shikoku, but it has grown increasingly popular with the recognition of Naoshima, its "art island" in the Seto Inland Sea between Shikoku and Honshu. Just a stone’s throw from the islands, mainland Kagawa’s prefectural capital, Takamatsu, holds history in its castle ruins and its pride and joy, Ritsurin Garden, is known as one of the country’s best gardens.
