    Ehime Pref. Imabarishi Asakurakami
    This is a specialist towel museum located in Japan’s leading towel production area, Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture. Housed within a building reminiscent of a European castle there is also a 33,000 square meter European style garden with flowers blooming throughout the year. Inside the museum visitors will find a whole range of items on display made out of towel and cloth by the writer, painter and product designer Atsuko Matano. Visitors can also take a look around the place where towels are made and have their own unique embroidery stitched into a towel they’ve purchased. There is also a shop which sells Shikoku souvenirs with a focus on towel products.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this place - it was very interesting and had a great stock of towels. I wished that I had of purchased some to bring back home.

    Ehime Pref. Imabarishi Tamagawachouono Case 86-4
    "Located approximately a 50-minute drive on National Route 317 from the center of Matsuyama City, this art museum houses and exhibits mainly works collected by the local businessman Tadatsune Tokusei. It has works from painters who have left their mark on modern Western painting such as Seiki Kuroda's ""Snow in the Garden"" and Takeji Fujishima's ""Corner of the Park,"" and small but warm treasures. The collection also includes overseas works from artists such as Picasso, Rouault, Miro and Chagall, and a wide range of works by painters who colored recent times. In addition, the shop also sells original museum Bary-san character goods."

    今治市の名誉市民で実業家の徳生忠常のコレクションをもとにした美術館。 コンクリート打ちっぱなしの館内は、落ち着いてゆっくりと鑑賞できるスペースが確保されています。 「須田国太郎と独立美術協会の画家たち」展を拝見しました。ほか、所蔵品の黒田清輝や特に松本竣介の作品も質のいいものだと思います。

    Ehime Imabari-shi Omishimacho Miyaura 9099-1

    大山祇神社前にある日本画の美術館。 大展示室のメインを飾る加山又造の火の島は桜島をモチーフにした襖絵。赤と黄色の色調の華やかな雰囲気で、美しい情景がそのまま写し取られているよう。 ほか、田淵俊夫記念展示室の作品も落ち着いた正統派の作品です。

    Ehime Imabari-shi Asahimachi 1-4-8
    This art museum is located in Asahi-machi 1-Chome, Imabari City. The museum possesses a collection of around 10,000 folding screens, hanging scroll, ancient documents, books, and other items collected by the late Shinichi Kono, who was a businessman from Imabari. In addition to exhibiting this collection, the museum also holds a variety of events including modern art exhibitions. The museum’s tea house was relocated from Kono’s residence. It was modeled after the famous Tai-an teahouse, a National Treasure.

    We had to pass a (very) rainy day in Imabari and ended up visiting this museum, which, despite initial appearances, was quite nice. It has a decidedly small-town feel, with most of the artists on...

    Ehime Pref. Imabarishi Omishimachourado 2362-3
    This modern art museum can be found on Omishima Island, which is located along the Shimanami Kaido Expressway in Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture. It opened in 2004 thanks to the contributions of businessman Atsuo Tokoro. Inside you’ll find an exhibit of approximately 30 three-dimensional works by Giacomo Manzu, known for creating the gate of St. Peter’s Basilica, as well as Noe Katz, Norichika Hayashi, and Takashi Fukai. The building is located on a plateau on the island, which affords the terrace a splendid view of the Seto Inland Sea.

    8月1日 3年ぶりくらいの訪問です。今治市 大三島町 大山祇神社前を通過して数キロ、海岸線の高台にあります。印象的な玄関がお迎えしてくれます。入り口から階段状の展示室を降りながら展望室へと向かいます。今回は、コロナ禍の関係でコーヒーのサービスはありませんでした。2度目の訪問、前回の印象より経年劣化を感じました。やはり受付の対応や展示仕方、備品やパンフレットのメンテナンス、来館者への気配りなど、工夫...

    Ehime Imabari-shi Asakurashimo

    Google Mapsで確認しながら訪問しました。無料です。今治には多くの古墳が残っておりその発掘品が展示されてます。多くが土器なのでドキドキしながら10分くらい見学できます。 隣の棟にピアノがあるようで練習中の演奏が聞こえてました。 ここより北部に妙見山古墳、東部に国府址、南部に永納山城址があります。

Stretched across the northwest corner of Shikoku island, Ehime is a nature-rich prefecture boasting beautiful coastlines and a rural center where mountains play host to 26 of the Buddhist temples that make up the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Matsuyama is home to an original post-feudal castle as well as Dogo Onsen, one of the country’s oldest natural hot springs. The northern city of Imabari marks the entrance to the Shimano Kaido, a road that crosses six spectacular bridges and several islands, forming a route between Shikoku and mainland Honshu.
