Hi, I’m Tabi!

Takamatsu is a port city in Kagawa. Begin with its garden or castle-site park. Check routes from JR and Kotoden stations and return transport. Islands and outlying areas need separate plans.

This guide covers places within Takamatsu, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Ritsurin Garden

栗林公園

A historic strolling garden with ponds and carefully tended pines. The photograph dates to 2017. Check seasonal entry and public areas, and stay off plants and rocks and out of ponds.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

A first-visit stop

Tamamo Park and Takamatsu Castle Site

玉藻公園・高松城跡

Explore port-city history through castle-site moats and structures. The 2021 photo shows the Tsukimi turret and gate area, rather than a castle keep. Check park entry and access to individual buildings separately.

Before you set off
