Takamatsu Onsen

Takamatsu, known as the gateway to Shikoku, is a charming city that seamlessly blends history, culture, and nature. It’s nestled on the northern coastline of Shikoku Island, Kagawa Prefecture, and offers a unique onsen experience. The city is home to several hot springs, such as Yashima Onsen, notable for its alkaline waters that are said to have skin-beautifying properties, and Mure Onsen, famous for its warm, relaxing waters thought to ease fatigue and stress.

Aside from the healing waters of the onsens, Takamatsu is renowned for its cultural heritage. The city’s rich history is reflected in its well-preserved traditional architecture, numerous temples, and the enchanting Ritsurin Garden, a national treasure and one of the most beautiful gardens in Japan. A visit to Takamatsu isn’t complete without sampling the local delicacy, Sanuki udon, a thick, chewy noodle dish that is a culinary symbol of the region.
