Kōchi and the Shimanto River
Castle, peaceful coast and large rural river make up a generous crossing of the south of Shikoku.
To understand what Kōchi and Shimanto River is, you should look at Kōchi Castle, Katsurahama Beach and Shimanto River. These places give us a view of a territory marked by urban life, the coastline, riverscapes and natural spaces and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Remarkable location
Shikoku
Shikoku offers a more rural Japan, marked by the steep valleys, the pilgrimage temples of the 88 shrines and the powerful coasts of Kochi. Around the Shimanto, low bridges without parapets, rice fields and river villages give the island a slow pace, very different from the large cities of Honshū.
Castello
Kōchi Castle
The castle of Kōchi is one of the few in the country to keep both its historical dungeon and the main palace. The wooden rooms, the views of the city and the chain of doors give a direct reading of seigneurial life and defense.
Spiaggia
Katsurahama beach
Katsurahama describes a curve of pebbles and pines facing the Pacific, dominated by a statue of Sakamoto Ryōma. The currents make swimming dangerous and forbidden, but the coastal walk, the small sanctuary and the views remain very strong.
Fiume
Shimanto River
The Shimanto crosses a rural area of forests, villages and rice fields before reaching the Pacific. Its submersible bridges without parapets create emblematic points of view, while cycling, canoeing and walks require an organization adapted to distances.
