– Attractions Introduction –

  • Cesium Creek

The valley of Ceshi Gorge, formed by a volcanic eruption 13 million years ago, boasts Shodoshima's largest waterfall, reaching a height of 21 meters. Its name, Ceshi Falls, stemmed from its resemblance to sake pouring from the gorge. Ceshi Gorge itself later acquired the name Ceshi Gorge. Originally, Ceshi Gorge was home to numerous wild monkeys, but during the Showa era, captive breeding was initiated for research, and the experiment was successful within just three months. At the time, there were approximately 130 monkeys, but now as many as 500 live in the area. The monkeys continue to eat sweet potatoes grown on Shodoshima.

  • Hanxia Creek

Kankakei in Shodoshima, Kagawa Prefecture, is known for its "Omote Twelve and Satohachi" (Sato Eight). These refer to the two hiking routes that lead from the base of the mountain to the observation deck near the ropeway's summit station (612 meters above sea level). The western route, called the "Omote Tozan Trail," and the eastern route, called the "Sato Tozan Trail," offer twelve and eight breathtaking views, respectively.

  • Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village

Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a scene from the early Showa era. Shodoshima was the setting for the classic film "Twenty-Four Eyes." The filming location, built during the filming, has been preserved in its original state and is open to the public. The neighborhood, featuring residential buildings, a wooden school building, and village alleyways, faithfully recreates the early Showa era, evoking a sense of nostalgia and a time warp.

  • Shodoshima Daikannon

Location: Located in Tonosho-cho, Shozu-gun, Kagawa Prefecture.

Features: The giant Guanyin statue, about 50 meters tall, is known as "the most beautiful Guanyin statue in the world" and is one of the landmarks of Shodoshima.

Facilities: An elevator provides direct access to the observation deck above the statue. From here, guests can enjoy breathtaking views of Shodoshima Island and the Seto Inland Sea. The temple also houses and displays numerous Buddhist statues and artworks, showcasing their religious and cultural value.
