2025 Tonosho Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

DAY 58: Shodoshima has a warm climate all year round and is known as the "Mediterranean Sea of ​​Japan". Olive groves, traditional soy sauce brewed in cypress barrels, and sun-dried noodles can be seen everywhere on the island. These traditional agricultural practices with a history of more than 400 years are still continuing today, and therefore the souvenirs on the island are products derived from these materials. Natural attractions include the "Angel Promenade" that appears at low tide, the legend that couples who hold hands and walk along the white sand path connecting four small islands will live a happy life, and the Toyon Strait, the narrowest strait certified by the Guinness World Records (the narrowest part is 9.93 meters). Shodoshima is also one of the venues for the Setouchi Triennale. Some of the works have become permanent installation art on the island, and some of them are hidden in inconspicuous places, so it takes some time to find them. In the past, many movies have been filmed on Shodoshima, the most famous of which is the movie "Twenty-Four Eyes" starring Hideko Takamine in the Showa era. The village and school built for the filming of the movie have been preserved to this day and have become a movie village. The only cinema in the village also screens the same classic work every day. In May this year (2024), the movie "Karakari Utsu no Takagi-san" (Teasing Master Takagi-san), starring Mei Nagano and Fumiya Takahashi, was also filmed in Shodoshima. It is a romantic love film spanning ten years. Although you haven't had the opportunity to visit Shodoshima yet, you can also experience this beautiful island known as the Japanese Mediterranean by watching the movie. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

#2月好去地方2025 Head to the Seto Inland Sea in Shikoku and stay at Olivean Resort Hotel in Shodoshima. This seaside resort located in "Sunset Hill" is even more charming under the sunset, and the island resort atmosphere is full! Stay in a 48-square-meter Japanese-Western-style room with a double bed and a small Japanese-style tatami living room. From the window you can enjoy the sea view that has been selected as one of the top 100 sunsets in Japan. A night for two people excluding meals is about NT$6,500; including breakfast and dinner, it is about NT$9,000. As far as hot spring resorts are concerned, this price is not expensive, and if you come to a hot spring hotel and don’t try the sumptuous buffet, how can you say it’s past your visit? The sea view hot spring is also a highlight. The men's and women's hot springs are replaced every morning and evening. The water quality is a beauty hot spring with a pH of 9.0, which can beautify your skin while you bathe. Although Olvia Shodoshima Sunset Hill Hotel is an old resort, it is well maintained and has a great view of the sunset, making it a great place to relax and unwind in Shodoshima. #ShikokuTravel #Shodoshima #SunsetHill

Teshima is located in Kagawa Prefecture, Shikoku. It is a small and beautiful island. It is famous for its modern art and natural scenery. It takes about an hour to get there by ferry from Takamatsu Port. The island is not big, but it gives people a sense of seclusion and tranquility. We rented an electric bicycle as soon as we got off the boat. We first visited the Toshima Yokoo Museum, where the works of Yokoo Tadanori are displayed. The colorful and imaginative artworks in the museum left a deep impression. Teshima Art Museum was designed by Ryue Nishizawa and artist Rei Naito. Its architectural appearance is like a drop of water quietly sitting on the hill. It is highly recommended to go in. You need to make an appointment online in advance. The scenery on the island is very beautiful. It is recommended to ride an electric bicycle around the island. #GlobalTravel

I went to Teshima in Kagawa Prefecture! I was planning to stay for one night, so I looked for a hotel...I found a new accommodation facility that opened in the fall of 2022, so I stayed there right away✨ "Teshima Espoir Park" The hotel is located near the sea, and the rooms have an ocean view✨ The facility also has a terrace with a spectacular view of the sea, so you can spend your time wherever you like♪ There is also a shared lounge for guests, and free coffee service in the morning☕️ 📍Access 514 Ieura, Tonosho-cho, Toshima, Shozu-gun, Kagawa 15 minutes walk from Teshima Ieura Port #Kagawa #Teshima #Hotel

#KagawaTourism #Shodoshima #AngelRoad #Sunrise #Solo #SoloTrip #TwiceADay #777 There is a road with a cute name on Shodoshima Island in Kagawa Prefecture. “Angel Road” Twice a day, at low tide, a road appears that connects the islands. When I went there, the sunrise happened to be at low tide, so I was able to see a beautiful sun. It felt like I had received some kind of power from early in the morning, and I felt like I could spend the day comfortably. I would like to find a good time to go here again.

Teshima (pronounced "Teshima") is a small island in the Seto Inland Sea. As its name suggests, this small island is rich enough to be self-sufficient on the island, with pure spring water, crops, rice, and fish. Teshima was hit by pollution caused by illegal dumping of industrial waste that continued from around 1978. Pollution on an unprecedented scale, fish could no longer be caught, children suffered from asthma, and negative rumors continued for several years. The island's residents have been fighting for many years to restore the island's former abundance, and as part of the Setouchi Triennale, art has been brought to the island, making it known as an island of contemporary art. 🖼 We can't change the past, but knowing that this island exists now after overcoming immeasurable anger and sadness, my love for Teshima far exceeded my expectations before I went. 😌🤍 It's about 35 minutes by regular ferry from Takamatsu Port. ⛴ Because it's a small island, you can rent bicycles (electric bicycles). /4 hours 1,000 yen) is recommended 🚲 The landmark is the Teshima Art Museum 🫧 I wonder if it is appropriate to categorize it as a "museum", but there is only one piece of art, and the overwhelming immersion will overturn your previous concept 🫢 Photography is not allowed inside the museum, so please come and experience it with your own eyes 😁 Please note that reservations are required via online tickets ✍️ Blue skies, blue seas, tranquil nature, the whole island is art and Teshima is beautiful no matter where you look 🌿 #Domestic travel #Teshima #Teshima Art Museum #Kagawa Prefecture

I was tired from cycling around Teshima, so I took a break. I had a cafe at the Seaside Restaurant. This restaurant is located along the coast and has a great view. The pizza is apparently delicious, so they brought it to me fresh from the handmade oven. Yokoo Tadanori also has art works on display in Teshima. I had some time before the return boat from Ieura Port, so I went in. In the previous Yokoo World, he incorporated primary colors into the old houses as much as he could. The Japanese garden was quite catchy and nice. #DomesticTravel

The most famous tourist spot in Teshima. Teshima Art Museum requires a reservation with a specified time, so please be careful when visiting. Photography is prohibited inside the museum, so I only have photos of the surrounding area, but the entire space is dominated by the masterpieces of modern artists who make use of architecture and water. I was confused at first, but I gradually became at ease and was moved. After that, I saw the famous road that leads to the sea, and ate at a restaurant. The dry curry was delicious! #DomesticTravel #ArtMuseumVisit

I took a ferry to Teshima in Kagawa Prefecture. It took about 40 minutes from Takamatsu Port to reach Ieura Port. It can also be accessed from the opposite shore, Okayama Prefecture. A local told me about it in the morning, so I rented a bicycle and went to Teshima Espoir Park for a morning cafe. It just opened last year. They were serving hot chai until 9am that day, so I bought some right away. It was a bit chilly, so it warmed me up nicely. #DomesticTravel #Gourmet #CoupleTrip

Kagawa Shodoshima International Hotel is located just over the Angel Road. If you plan to go to Shodoshima, it is definitely recommended to stay on the island for a night, soak in the hot springs and look at the sea. You don’t have to catch the boat or the car, and spend a leisurely and comfortable time. 👍🏻 The hotel is surrounded by the sea on three sides, every room has a sea view, and the open-air hot spring naturally faces the sea. You can watch the sunset at night and the sunrise in the morning. The scenery is unbeatable! 🌅It feels great to soak in the hot springs in the gentle sound of the waves and feel the sea breeze at night. 🌌The room is ordinary, but large in size. The hotel dining was excellent! The breakfast is very rich, with Western-style pork and sausages, as well as Japanese-style sashimi, natto, hot spring eggs, freshly cooked soup, etc. Dinner included plump and tender beef and small abalone, as well as very smooth and chewy vegetarian noodles. 😋All the ingredients are very fresh, and they use locally produced dark soy sauce, olive oil, and homemade rich pudding, which tastes novel and flavorful. 📍Shodoshima International Hotel, 24-67 Tonosho-cho, Shozu-gun, Kagawa Prefecture #日本酒店 #国外旅游 #日本旅行 #travel #小豆岛 #travelinspiration

You can take a ferry to access to this one of the most beautiful islands around Kagawa. It is pretty small to explore but feels so good for just relaxing and spending time with great nature. About transportation, unfortunately there are not so many buses however, you can rent a car or even bikes that is enough for exploring all around the island.

Cottage "IROU" where you can have the ocean view all to yourself🌿 First of all, the view when you open the curtains in the morning is the best😭✨ The room is spacious and very reasonably priced!! The road is hard to find, so I recommend heading to the cottage while it's still light◎ #supporttourism #kagawa #shodoshima #remoteislandtrip #triptovisitremoteislands#supporttourism#greatviews

🏝️ [Shodoshima | Kagawa Prefecture] 🌿 Shodoshima, floating in the calm Seto Inland Sea, is an island travel spot where you can enjoy nature and healing ✨ It is famous as a famous olive producing area, and at "Olive Park" the windmills and Greek-style scenery make it seem like you are overseas 📷🍃 It is also popular as a location for the movie "Kiki's Delivery Service"!

Shodoshima is at its best on sunny days! Everywhere you look is stunning 😍 The blue sea and blue sky. There are so many attractions to explore. You can reach Shodoshima by ferry or high-speed boat from Takamatsu Port 🚢 I visited the famous Angel Road and the Olive Park Roadside Station. These two spots are must-visits!! Angel Road only appears during limited times in a day! If the timing is right, you can walk across it. The sea is crystal clear and incredibly beautiful. At the Olive Park Roadside Station, you'll find a wide variety of souvenirs from Shodoshima! You can enjoy olive-flavored soft serve ice cream, meals, and drinks. The view from this roadside station is breathtaking! Within Shodoshima, there are local buses and taxis available, but if you want to explore without worrying about time, renting a car is highly recommended!

#summervacay Okay, Teshima Art Museum in Kagawa is honestly unlike anything I’ve ever been to. It’s not your typical museum with paintings or sculptures, it's literally just this massive white, dome-like space in the middle of nature. Super minimal, super quiet, and weirdly emotional in the best way. Inside, there's pretty much nothing... except water slowly moving across the floor in the gentlest, most hypnotic way ever. Sounds kinda boring? Nope. It’s insanely calming and weirdly beautiful. You just sit there barefoot, watching water do its thing, while light and wind flow in through these open holes in the ceiling. Time seriously feels like it stops. The whole island has an artsy, peaceful vibe, but the museum is the real soul-hitter. It's more like an experience than a museum. No photos allowed inside, which somehow makes it feel even more special. If you’re into slow, deep, quiet beauty, this one’s gonna hit you right in the feels. Total must-visit.

My first visit to Shodoshima. I stayed at Tenku Hotel Kairo! This time, I stayed in a charming room that was renovated in 2023. The room itself was adorable and totally my style! It was an ocean-view room where you can relax on the sofa or chairs by the window. At the lounge, you can enjoy free soft drinks, alcohol, and ice cream 🍷.

🍴Umi no RESTAURANT After enjoying the art in Teshima, enjoy lunch at Umi no RESTAURANT, a cafe restaurant with a spectacular view of the Seto Inland Sea. The restaurant is located on a hilltop and has a glass-walled space with the sea in front of you, making you feel as if you are floating on the sea. The dishes are made with plenty of local ingredients from Teshima and the surrounding Setouchi area. The pasta, quiche, and drinks made with Setouchi lemon all have gentle flavors that highlight the quality of the ingredients. The particularly popular "Daily Plate with Setouchi Seafood" is a dish that is beautiful to look at and will satisfy both your heart and your stomach. If the weather is nice, you can relax on the terrace. The vases on the tables are cute, and each seat has a different vase and flowers, which was nice. I got the same one at YUI. ⸻ [Recommended points] - An extraordinary lunch in a glass-walled space with an ocean view - Creative dishes and exquisite sweets made with local ingredients - A perfect location for a break between museum tours - You can just use the cafe!

#GlobalTravel As one of the exhibition venues for the 2025 Setouchi Triennale, Teshima is expected to become a very popular tourist destination this year. If you don’t want to visit during the art festival, there are many regular art galleries and exhibits in Teshima. You can feel the charm of Teshima no matter when you go! In Toshima, you can often see works that go beyond the conventional framework, which are unexpected but easy to resonate with. For example, in the game "No One Wins Basketball Hoop", six basketball hoops of different heights are set up on an ordinary sports field. Because you can often see several tourists shooting hoops together, not caring about winning or losing, they just want to enjoy the time shooting hoops as they please, which makes people smile. 📍Address: Toyoshima

It takes about one hour to get to Naoshima from Takamatsu Port by boat. It is an island full of art "Chichu Art Museum" - Architect is Tadao Ando Clear water concrete ~ light and shadow ~ blank space It is a place worth quieting down. (No photography allowed inside) It is recommended to stay at least one night in Naoshima Two nights is actually more than enough The next day, I took a boat from Naoshima to Toyoshima In front of the Toyoshima Museum of Art, along the road to the coast The vast sea view makes people reluctant to leave This seemingly simple art gallery is where I meditate Sit, lie down, or walk Indescribable healing feeling (Same, no photography allowed inside) So, you must experience it yourself #SetoInlandSea #Naoshima #Toyoshima

#aprilblooms In the 13th year of Tenpyo (741), the temple was founded by the monk Gyogi at the request of Emperor Shomu. Since the emperor himself copied and paid the King Sutra of the Golden Light, it has also been called the "Golden Light Four Heavenly Kings Protectors" as a prayer place to pray for peace in the world, the abundance of grain, and the abundance of all people. Later, Kobo Daishi revived it as a temple of the Shingon sect, and became a sacred place in eighty-eight places in Shikoku. Even today, the sound of the pilgrimage's bell is constant. It is said that the author of the Tosa Diary, Noriyuki, stayed for 4 years as a national governor. In addition, the temple has been maintained to this day while receiving strong faith, such as the Chosokabe clan in the Sengoku period and the lord of the Yamauchi Domain in the Edo period.

This time, I will introduce Yokoo Museum in Teshima✨ It is a museum that opened in 2013 to coincide with the Setouchi Triennale, a collaboration between artist Tadanori Yokoo and architect Yuko Nagayama😎 The light and shadow that change through the red rock garden and colored glass give visitors a philosophical experience with the theme of "life and death"👫 Teshima Yokoo Museum 📍2359 Toshima Ieura, Tonosho-cho, Shozu-gun, Kagawa Prefecture ------------ Thank you for watching👫 This is Yuitasu☺️ A couple in their 20s who have traveled to 35 countries both in Japan and overseas.
