[2025 Takamatsu Attraction] Travel Guide for Takamatsu Castle Park (Updated Mar)

Tamamo Park, where the ruins of Takamatsu Castle are located, still has visible moats and remnants of walls, even though the castle itself is mostly in ruins. The historical atmosphere of the Edo period and the dry landscape garden design make it worth a visit. The moat of Takamatsu Castle is filled with seawater from the Seto Inland Sea, making it a true water castle standing above the sea. Although only the walls remain today, it is still quite majestic and impressive. You can take a boat ride around the moat to get a sense of its historical significance. The wooden Saya Bridge, vast pine forests, and Japanese gardens are highlights of Tamamo Park. There is also the Takamatsu Castle History Museum, which showcases the site's past in detail. If you're lucky, you might even catch the nighttime light show.

After nearly 10 trips to Japan🌏, Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka have all seen my footprints. But today, I want to reveal to you a hidden treasure in Japan—Takamatsu Castle!🏙️ No need to detour through Hong Kong, direct flights from Shanghai to Takamatsu are now available!✨ Let me take you on a four-day, three-night island-hopping fantasy trip!🚀 💖Accommodation: Immerse yourself in the romantic nights at Takamatsu Port, where all three nights will be a perfect experience! 🌸Day 1: Takamatsu—Ritsurin Garden 🎋Ritsurin Garden, the third-ranked Michelin three-star garden in Japan, offers scenery that can compete with any garden or temple in Kyoto! The Nan-en's 'Hiraiho' is like nature's magic mirror, reflecting the beauty of the garden in full. Don't forget to taste the matcha and sweets at Kyugetsu-tei Pavilion; the texture of the dango is absolutely unforgettable! 🌊Day 2: Takamatsu—Naoshima 🚤Take a large ferry or a high-speed boat to Naoshima. The larger ferry is more stable and comfortable, a wise choice. Here, you will encounter Yayoi Kusama's red and yellow pumpkins, becoming a unique landmark in your journey. The white mesh structure of Naoshima Pavilion and the profound art of Chichu Art Museum will be unforgettable memories of your trip. 🌳Day 3: Takamatsu—Teshima 🛵Rent an electric bicycle to explore the unique charm of Teshima. Teshima Yokoo House, an art hall converted from a private house; the Sea Restaurant, facing the sea, where you can enjoy delicious food and beautiful views; Teshima Art Museum and the Heartbeat Museum are destinations not to be missed on this trip. 🌾Day 4: Takamatsu—Shodoshima 🚗Public transportation on Shodoshima is inconvenient, so it is recommended to hire a car or rent one for sightseeing. The soy sauce ice cream from the soy sauce factory is an ultimate taste experience; Olive Tree Park, the filming location for Kiki's Delivery Service, where you can borrow a broom and create beautiful memories under the big windmill; Nijushi no Hitomi Movie Village, which can be skipped by those not familiar with Japanese cinema, but it's far from the port and requires patience to find. 🍱Cuisine: In Takamatsu, you can't miss bone-in chicken and udon. Ikkaku bone-in chicken, Kichitori Izakaya, Taisai Sakaba, Seto Sushi, and Udon Baka Ichidai are all popular shops that will provide you with an unforgettable culinary experience. ✨This is a journey full of fantasy and beauty, like a real-life Suzunari journey. Don't hesitate any longer, come to Takamatsu and start your adventure!🌠

DAY 60: Today is my last night in Takamatsu. I plan to fly back to Japan tomorrow evening. In the morning, I rode a bicycle to the northernmost point of Shikoku, Cape Takei, to check in. I remember that on Day 17 of the Shikoku Pilgrimage, when I visited Kongofukuji Temple, the 38th sacred place, I also visited Cape Ashizuri, the southernmost point of Shikoku. It was windy and rainy that day, and my phone was blown down by the wind when I was taking a selfie with a tripod, causing the screen glass protector to break. Later, I bought a Japanese-made full-size glass protector for ¥110 at DAISO. All this happened a month and a half ago... and the two-month journey has ridden nearly 3,000 kilometers in total, which is equivalent to three trips around the island. The average daily calorie consumption is 2,000 kcal, which has made my weight go from 62 kg before departure to 54 kg now. The originally slightly protruding belly has become tight and flat, which is also a small gain brought to me by bicycle travel; in the afternoon, I returned to the city and successfully sold the bicycle that accompanied me for two months of climbing mountains and seas + island hopping by boat to the bicycle dealer. I hope its next owner will also take good care of it, and I will also treasure all the memories with it. Note: The Japanese TV series "Love Calling in the Center of the World" was very popular in 2005, starring Yamada Takayuki, Ayase Haruka, Ogata Naoto, and Sakurai Sachiko. The photo studio in the series (Uppira Photo Studio) is located in Takamatsu. Although there are not as many fans as before, the tear-jerking plot comes to mind when seeing the young photo of the two through the glass window. The story tells a sad and beautiful record of youth love. While traveling in Australia, the protagonist Sakutaro Matsumoto recalls his unforgettable past with his deceased lover Hirose Aki. N years ago, Sakutaro fell in love with his classmate Aki. But in the third year of their love, Aki became weaker and weaker due to leukemia. One day, Sakutaro came to Uluru (Ayers Rock, the largest independent rock in the world - referred to as the "center of the world" in the film) in Australia, where he had promised Aki to go on a school trip, and scattered Aki's ashes into the sky. I burst into tears. Why do Japanese dramas always love to write characters to death? But why are their school trips so good that they can even go abroad? I'm so envious~ I like the scene where Aki pokes Sakutaro's cheek, that scene was so youthful and cute, and the most impressive part was the last part of listening to the tape recorder, the male protagonist's affectionate confession, and in the end the father recognized Sakutaro and agreed to let his daughter fulfill her dream of wearing a wedding dress, making up for his daughter's regret. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

Typhoon days, all the shops were closed, Hokkaido toast was not eaten, and the noodle shop recommended by Oguri was not eaten. The Mitsukoshi department store was arbitrarily closed, and even the bus was stopped. Gao Song suddenly looked like An empty city. I want to have a beautiful shape in front of the camera. I dont want to break the umbrella in the next moment. Its too hard!!
