تاكاماتسو، كاغاوا

Takamatsu Essentials

Takamatsu serves as a gateway to Shikoku, defined by its Edo-period heritage and coastal landscapes. Ritsurin Garden, a sprawling landscape garden completed in 1745, features six ponds and thirteen tea hills. The city's history is further preserved at the Shikoku Mura open-air museum and the ruins of Takamatsu Castle. On the Yashima lava plateau, visitors can explore the ancient Yashima-ji temple and a high-altitude aquarium, while the nearby islands offer modern cultural sites like the Ogijima Library.
