    Ehime Pref. Uwajimashi Tsushimachouchikaie A 1813
    This Japanese garden opened in 1985 in Tsushima Town, Uwajima City, Ehime Prefecture and has been chosen as one of Japan’s top 100 urban gardens. Two large ponds sit at the center of the park, which features approximately 150 kinds of trees and around 200,000 specimens. The flowers that grow in the various seasons are a sight to behold. The park grounds are dotted with sights such as a farmhouse from the mid-Edo period, a teahouse near a ridge, a rest area modeled after a fisherman’s house, a teahouse in the Sukiya style, and more. There are several events as well, such as the Plum Festival in February, the Nanraku Park Outer Moat Cherry Blossom Festival from late March until April, and the Nanraku Park Moon Viewing Festival in September.

    We loved this garden. We were there during peak cherry blossom time and the outside of the garden is ringed with cherry blossom trees. There are also some inside the garden as well. The garden is...

    Ehime Pref. Seiyoshi Uwachounomachi 4-11-2
    This museum introduces and exhibits items related to the history and folklore of Ehime Prefecture. The expansive structure houses four historic and folklore exhibit rooms, and workshop classrooms. In addition to the displayed objects, on display are many scale-model replicas of iconic structures such as pit dugout dwellings, a town house during the Sengoku Age of Civil Wars, and a pre-war village main street, each depicting respective periods, affording one a sense of being transported back in time.

    It’s strange to find such a fine museum on Ehime’s history and culture in a small city like Seiyo rather than Matsuyama city. But it’s in an idyllic setting on top of a mountain. Entry is 510 yen per...

    The building was constructed as the main branch of the Oozu Commercial Bank in 1901, and is a blend of Japanese and Western-style architecture, featuring British bricks and a tiled roof. The building is now used to sell local crafts and special products, and there is a place for tourists to take a break on the second floor.

    まちの駅あさもやから地図を片手に歩きました。銀行として使われていた建物です。 文字通りの赤煉瓦の建物できれいです。が、その日は残念ながら休業日。中には入れず残念でした。

    Ehime Pref. Uwajimashi Gotenmachi 9-14
    This museum is just a 25-minute walk from the Uwajima Station. It exhibits treasured documents of the region the Date family is associated with, as well as cultural items of Uwajima. Although the exhibit has various artifacts on display, from weapons, armor, paintings, writings, earthenware, and clothes, the exhibit of the splendid and luxurious bride's furnishings is extensive.

    伊達家のみならず四国内の殿様の甲冑や刀剣を展示しています。中には変わった兜も有りましたよ。面白いのは伊勢海老の兜、遠くからでも見分けが付きそうです。宇和島藩の歴史では宇和島藩は仙台伊達藩の分家ではないということを強調しています。藩祖秀宗公は大坂の陣の功績により、秀宗公が直接頂いた領地だからという話です。個人的にはどうかなと思いますが。尚、館内は撮影禁止です。

    Ehime Pref. Nishiuwagunikatachou Shitsu
    This lookout spot sits underneath the windmills of the Seto Windhill power station which uses the strong winds of the area. Located almost in the center of the Sadamisaki Peninsula you can get a 360-degree view of the lined-up windmills, the sea to the north and south, and the mountains stretching to the east and west. In the park there are full size windmill blades on display allowing you to experience just how big they are. From the slightly elevated viewing platform you can hear the sound of the windmills which resembles the sound of an airplane in flight. It's a popular driving spot along the Sadamisaki Melody Line as it plays the tune Mikan no Hanasaku Oka (The Hill where the Mandarin Blossoms Bloom).

    Ehime Pref. Ozushi Yunoki 942
    "Mt. Tomisuyama is located in the center of the Ozu Basin enclosed by the Hiji River; due to its resemblance to Mt. Fuji, it is called the ""Ozu Fuji"" by some. The mountain is approximately 320-meter high. The area near the top is maintained as a park, and bicycles can be ridden all the way to the top of the mountain. The park has an observatory and playground and is also suitable for going hiking with children. In spring, cherry trees and azaleas bloom in the park, and in fact the park boasts some of the largest number of azalea plants in western Japan - around 63 thousand! The park's cherry trees are double-flowered cherries, and during the blooming season the area around the mountaintop is dyed light pink with their flowers. The Sightseeing Sakura Cherry Blossom Festival and the Azalea Festival are also held in the park at this time, and it bustles with large numbers of visitors."
