Motoyamaji Temple

The view of the precincts, where the five-storied pagoda stands, is spectacular. The main hall is a stately building with a hipped structure and a tiled roof. Founded in 1300, it survived the war and still retains its original appearance. It is a masterpiece of the eclectic style of the Kamakura period, with a Kyoto-style exterior and a Nara style interior, and is designated as a national treasure. It is also the only one of the 88 sacred sites in Shikoku to have the Bato Kannon as its principal image.

Ariakehama Horse Park

Ariakehama Horse Park is located in a quiet and calm place facing Ariakehama, right next to Kotohiki Park, which is rich in nature. Watching the sunset while riding a horse is a special experience. We value interaction with small animals and horses, so even small children can have fun together with whole family.

Sankabashi

Sankabashi is the most beautiful bridge in the city, with three beautiful arches and has been selected as one of Japan's 100 Famous Bridges. It is a steel-framed concrete underpass type tied arch bridge with a length of 93m and a width of 6m, and is located on the way from Kanonji City to Ariake Beach and Kotohiki Park, a scenic spot. The sight of nine floats crossing the Sankabashi during the Kotohiki Hachimangu Grand Festival held in autumn is Kanonji tradition, and the sight of them crossing under the lights at night is especially spectacular.
