    Kouchi Pref. Agawa-gun Inocho Kamiyakawako 1160-2
    This roadside station on the side of National Route 194, which connects central Kochi Prefecture with Ehime Prefecture, is located between Kochi City and the border shared by the two prefectures. It is well-known as a rest stop for people driving the Setouchi Shimanami Kaido Expressway, which connects Shikoku with Honshu. The surrounding area gained the nickname “Niyodo Blue” in recent years for the beautiful main stream and tributaries of the Niyodo River, a class A river. The area is visited by many tourists due to its popularity on social media. In addition to people seeking great mountain climbers and fall foliage, the spot is also extremely popular with motorcycle tourists and cyclists. The central facility of the relatively small roadside station is its local products shop. Leveraging its location amongst the mountains, the shop offers many handcrafted products made the old-fashioned way with natural ingredients that cannot be found anywhere else. Visitors can always enjoy a hot meal or a variety of handmade sweets at the station’s two food shops, “Shokujidokoro Hachikinya” and “Mori no Chiisa na Okashiyasan”.

    仁淀ブルーを見に行く際に利用。周囲には飲食店などもほとんどないところで、ここで遅いお昼をとHPで17時までの営業時間を確認の上訪れたのが15時過ぎ、既に「本日は閉店」との張り紙でした。道の駅を名乗る施設でこういう経験は初めてであり、関わらない方が良い場所と判断、早々に立ち去りました。

    Kochi Agawa-gun Niyodogawacho Hikichi 62
    A drive-in restaurant on National Route 33 that connects Matsuyama and Kochi. They serve oden hot pots, soba noodles, and meal sets in a rural teahouse with an old-fashioned ambiance. Originally, this area was a rest stop for rickshaw pullers and travelers. The teahouse began selling rice cakes and sweets at the end of the Meiji period. Their oden hot pots eaten with sweet miso and grilled amego salmon skewers are famous, and their Japanese mugwort manju buns—a local favorite—often sell out quickly. Since its founding over 80 years ago, the shop's been a favorite of locals and travelers alike.

    5年前、たまたま立ち寄って、購入したヨモギ入り焼き餅が美味しくて、再訪。 やっぱり美味しい。安い！ のんびりした雰囲気のドライブイン。ホッとできる場所です。

    こちらの施設に宿泊しながら併設のレストランで夕食と朝食をいただきました。びっくりするほど質の高いフレンチが堪能できます。地の素材を生かした、前菜からサラダ、スープ、しっとりとした乙女鯛に火の通り具合も完璧な牛肉のグリエ。願わくばデザートをもうひとつ頑張ってもらえたら完璧なフルコースでした。朝食も言うことなし。一泊二食つきで大変リーズナブル。遠いのですが再訪を決意しました。

The largest of Shikoku’s prefectures, Kochi is endowed with some of the island’s most exceptional sand beaches lining the Pacific Ocean, which narrows into the Shimanto-gawa, a huge river that stretches 196 kilometers into the prefecture, passing verdant mountains and hosting countless riverside activities. Whether you’re a pilgrim or not, Kochi’s 16 Buddhist temples that make up one leg of the Shikoku Pilgrimage are worth a visit, particularly Chikurin-ji for its five-tier pagoda.
