Hi, I’m Tabi!

Tokushima City combines Awa Odori culture with a former castle site. Begin at the dance hall or pause in Central Park, checking each destination’s approach separately.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

阿波おどり会館

A first-visit stop

Tokushima Central Park

徳島中央公園

A park on the former Tokushima Castle site, with the reconstructed Washinomon Gate and traces of the castle. Check the garden and museum separately, as entry arrangements can differ from a park stroll.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Tokushima ramen is a local food option. The city’s tourism guide introduces brown, yellow and white soup styles. Recipes and toppings vary by shop; check ingredients and whether raw egg is included before ordering.
