shikoku....takamatsu ritsurin kouen etc



I went to kagawa pref.
Famous for 'UDON'
and Tokushima pref.

Naruto strait,  original naming place of Naruto. There arearound 1.5m  hights difference between pacific sea and setonaikai, so the big sea whirlpools.You can go closer by riding on small boat.
The shape of whirlpools became 'naruto'

Risturinkouen is a beautiful big  garden with many pine trees, etc...each tree is shaped bonsai style.
You can see  heart style shape azarea tree in the middle of the pond. So, you can  often see several couples take photoes wearing Japanease traditional kimonos.

Konpira san is the most famous  shrine in Japan  for god of marine.
This place is known about long long steps.(785steps to the main shrine, 1368 steps to the innner shrine.)
