A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
琴平町
Plan a Konpira shrine visit and a historic theater visit as separate activities in Kotohira. The main shrine requires a long stair climb; consider fitness and weather, and check theater admission separately.
This guide covers places within Kotohira, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
金刀比羅宮
Official guidance describes 785 steps from the town approach to the main shrine. The photo shows the Mihotsuhime Shrine area within the precinct in 2010, rather than the main sanctuary itself. Pace your visit for the steep sections.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
02A first-visit stop
旧金毘羅大芝居（金丸座）
This historic theater building dates from 1835. The photograph shows its front exterior in 2019 and does not advertise a current performance. Performance dates and ordinary visiting arrangements can differ; check before going.
