I didn't really have an image of Tokushima prefecture. But when I went there, I found it to be so fascinating! First of all, the Great Seto Bridge and the whirlpools! The weather wasn't very good, but I was able to get on the cruise safely and see the whirlpools, which I was quite impressed with! You should see it at least once! And it's like the Vatican! ? This is the Otsuka Museum of Art! It's a rare museum where replicas of famous works from all over the world are exhibited👀 The Sistine Chapel is smaller than the real one in Italy, but it's well made! I've been to the real thing, but you can't take photos there, so you should definitely take photos here lol The museum is very large, so you should make sure you have plenty of time and be physically fit before you go! Then we went to Matsuura Sake Brewery, which makes the famous sake called Naruto Tai...! I wasn't very interested in sake, but I was able to try a lot of different things, and I was able to find a sake that I liked that was very delicious🍶By the way, I love sake now❤ And Fukuju Soy Sauce, which is near the brewery! I tried a lot of different things here and bought some soy sauce! Tokushima's specialty, Kabosu soy sauce, was a popular souvenir♪ The last place we went to was the Awa Odori Hall! You can see Awa Odori all year round here! After watching it, the chants won't leave your head😂 Tokushima is full of charm, so be sure to visit! #EnjoyJapan #TokushimaTourism #TokushimaTrip #OtsukaMuseumofArt #NarutoTai #NarutoWhirlpools #FukujuSoySauce #OtsukaMuseumofArt

Tokushima is really a leisurely and comfortable small city If you are looking for attractions Don't worry, really. Come here to leisurely view art works Over a thousand carefully crafted works of art Let’s take a look at the nearby scenery You can also go to see the famous Naruto Whirlpool

#cherryblossom25 Starting from May 3rd and lasting for two whole weeks, the Otsuka Rose Festival takes over the stretch from Otsuka Station’s South Exit all the way to Mukaihara. This isn’t just any flower event — it’s a spectacular celebration of roses with over 700 different varieties and a whopping 1,210 rose bushes blooming along the west side of this scenic route! 🌹🌷🌿 Imagine strolling down this path, surrounded by a rainbow of roses in every shape, size, and color imaginable — from deep crimsons and soft pinks to sunny yellows and pure whites. Each step you take, the sweet, intoxicating fragrance of roses fills the air, making it feel like you’re walking through a real-life fairy tale. ✨💐 If the sun’s shining, this spot becomes even more magical, with the sunlight making the petals glow and the colors pop against the bright blue sky. It’s an ideal outing for flower lovers, photographers, or anyone just looking to soak in some natural beauty and fresh air. 📸🌞 #naturalwonders

It rained on the first day, so I went there on the second day, Wednesday. According to the information on Google Maps, it was closed only on Mondays, but it was closed on Wednesdays as well. Because of that, my plan to take a bus after visiting the museum to match the whirlpool time was messed up, and since the bus stop was long, I walked to Naruto Bridge, which took about 30 minutes? Fortunately, the weather was nice and cool, so the view was nice. However, since I had to go hiking, I was tired and went into Naruto Bridge without worrying about the whirlpools, but since it was not the right time, I came back after seeing the calm sea and the view. Still, the view was nice, so I was satisfied. Haha. Just in case you get messed up like me, go to Naruto Bridge first to match the whirlpool time, and ask the staff if the Otsuka Museum of Art is open, and then go to the museum! #Naruto #NarutoBridge #OtsukaMuseum #Tokushima

📍Otsuka Museum of Art / Tokushima Prefecture You can enjoy various paintings from around the world reproduced on ceramic panels. After taking the long elevator up, the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican spreads out before you. I had visited this place during my visit to Italy last year, so I couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!" A space that recreates the ceiling painting and the front mural "The Last Judgment" 👏 . The top image, the only place where you can see 6 works by El Greco at once ❕ The Last Supper, the Mona Lisa, Vermeer, Monet, and many other familiar works were very enjoyable . Famous Western paintings from 26 countries around the world are reproduced in full size on ceramic panels, and there is a lot of impressive and interesting things to see ❕ Please go and check it out! ━━━━━━━️✍️Information━━━━━━━━━ 📮 Inside Naruto Park, Naruto-cho, Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture ⏰ 19:30-17:00 🗓 Closed on Mondays 🚗 Yes (free) #Otsuka Museum of Art #Tokushima Tourism #Tokushima Museum of Art #Museum Tour #Italy #Want to Connect with Travel Lovers #Tokushima Information #Sistine Chapel #Mona Lisa #Kenshi Yonezu #Tokushima Spots #0 Yen Trip

~Tokushima (Awaji) 2 nights 3 days trip~ This time we will introduce Naruto! When you go to Tokushima, you will probably see the whirlpools, but I recommend "Wonder Naruto". The power of the whirlpools seen up close is something else🌀 After the sea, why not turn your attention to the mountains and visit Hanamiyama? You can spend a relaxing time surrounded by weeping cherry blossoms and take photos that will look great on Instagram. Another recommended point is that the admission fee is an exceptional 300 yen👀 If you are traveling to Tokushima in the spring, be sure to check it out! If you feel like going to a cafe, try French Monster Setouchi Food Art🍮The sweets, which are also used in JAL first class sweets, are modest yet sophisticated in sweetness and will blow away your fatigue. Don't miss the spectacular view! The Otsuka Museum of Art is famous for its environmental exhibits🍋It is a place you should visit once when you come to Tokushima. It will be a valuable experience to be able to see works that you can't see up close or that are difficult to visit in person in a form that is as close to the real thing as possible 🎨 Now, this time I stayed at Ao Ao Naruto Resort. The size of the room and the view were perfect, and the staff were all very kind. I had a great time at both the French restaurant and the buffet. I think you'll be satisfied no matter which restaurant you choose. What I liked most of all was the tempura at the buffet 🍤 The tempura fried in a special machine is somehow crispy even when it cools down, so I'll definitely come back! Please give it a try 🎶

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 What is so good about “ceramic reproduction paintings”? Simply put, the details and texture of the "painting" itself are far less exciting than the original, but at the "curatorial" level, the reproduction can do many things that the "original authentic collection museum" cannot do, completely transforming the art museum from the traditional "collection center" thinking to the "curatorial center" planning, creating an unprecedented exhibition experience that completely refreshed my imagination. They are all **life-size** so it feels like you are touring the best galleries in the world all in one place. The **Sistine Chapel replica** is amazing - you can even **take photos** (which you usually can't do in a real museum!). The museum is huge (4 km of galleries!), so wear comfortable shoes. A bit pricey (3,300 yen for adults), but totally worth it for art lovers!
