To the west of Seto Ohashi Memorial Park and beyond the museum, there is Samijima. Even if you say an island, you can continue by land, and you can go by car if you enter the sign of "Seto Ohashi Memorial Park Baseball Stadium". Here, Kakimoto Maro (Kakimoto Hitomaro) is in "Manyoshu", "Tamamo Yoshi Sanuki is a national or a god-seeking god ... Sashima Island A 30-minute walk around the promenade is also set up. At the starting point, there are 49 singing monuments made of Hito Maro and pottery plates, so that you can slowly stroll around Manyo Island.

There is also a literary monument of "Ai Koi Mugen" by a writer from Sakaide, Yoichi Nakagawa. A stone monument standing quietly on Matsubara in Hamah is built with Aji stone, and the surface of the monument is a Bizen porcelain plate handed by the living national treasure, Kei Fujiwara. The sea in front of the monument is the calm and beautiful Seto Inland Sea. Surprisingly transparent, clear waves rush over the sandy beaches. It is a beach where you can feel that the Seto Inland Sea is regaining its beauty. Saya Island is a popular beach in summer. From the beach and observation deck, you can see the picturesque Seto Bridge.
At the end of April every year (Sunday, April 4, 2007), a “Manyo Walk” is held with a guide to walk through the streets of Manyo. Manyo porridge with yomena that appears in the manyoshu will be sampled and sold to those who wish to sell many rice lunches using ancient rice.

One of the popular sweets at this tourist information center is the Kinto Zanmai Pudding. It is a gem that won the “Furusato Prize” at the Kagawa Prefectural Goods Competition. It is a pudding made from Kinoki potato, Kinki mandarin, and Kinki carrot, featuring the bright red color and delicious taste of Sakaide specialty. If you put it in the freezer you can taste it like ice cream.

Then, we visited the "specialty furnace" which makes this "Sankinto pudding" and specially made bun "Amamo". The head office here has 17 Japanese and Western confectionery stores in the prefecture. Mr. Kirado wants to make sweets using local ingredients carefully. We also sell castella made from Kagawa Prefecture wheat "Sanuki no Yume 2000". However, most of all, the specialty here is the "specialty furnace", which is also the company name. This is a shape of a salt-making furnace, with a lovely and cute shape like the mountain of Sanuki, and its unforgettable sweetness.
The directly operated confectionery stores include the main store in Ejiri-cho, the Seto Ohashi store near the Sakaide north interchange, and the Sakaide station south exit store, which are easy to drop in during the trip.

On the north side of Kofuen is Kamada soy sauce, which is known for its sickle and rice fields. Founded in the first year of Kansei (1789), it has a history of 218 years. Shodoshima, Hikida and Kagawa prefecture's soy sauce are known for their good taste. One of the reasons is that it is a source of good salt. Sakaide is the most famous salt producing area in Kagawa prefecture. "Kamata soy sauce" has been making soy sauce since the Edo period, when a large-scale salt field was built here.
In addition to this unchanging taste, what we always aim for is the taste that is required now. A representative of such a taste that is required right now is Kamada's soy sauce. There are many fans who have to do this for sanuki udon, cold and baked Seto fish, and many say that they cannot return to ordinary soy sauce. This "Dashi soy sauce" is a blend of the finest natural brewed soy sauce and carefully selected natural ingredients such as bonito, mackerel and kelp. It has 25% less salt than normal thick soy sauce, but it has a deep umami and brings out the deliciousness of the dishes.

In addition, there are `` low salt soy sauce '' for those who want to reduce salt, `` salad soy sauce '' with Japanese-style non-oil dressing, `` ponzu soy sauce '' which is also recommended for pots and vinegar, and `` sashimi soy sauce '' which makes use of fresh Seto fish. These five types are called "Goshiki soy sauce" and are pleased as gifts as a set. Also popular is a set with sanuki udon that contains soy sauce and udon soup for sanuki udon. These are small paper packs with stoppers, which are much lighter than bottles and can be used on the table as they are, so they are also recommended as souvenirs.

Next, head west through the retro shopping street where the entrance to the Shoyu Painting Museum is located. Cross the traffic light, and if you go further, you will find a small shop on the right, called Jizo Mochi. The size and shape are unusual. To the left is Ichibari's "Mingei Shiroyama (Tel. 0877-46-4028)" which is made by painting persimmon juice on Japanese paper. Here, you can find the valuables of boat chests, which are now valuable, as well as boat fittings. Seasonal folk crafts are also fun in the store.

Turn left at the corner of Mingei Shiroyama, and at the end there is a drawing of city buildings such as the Civic Art Museum and the Ohashi Memorial Library. Here is the "Sakaide City Folk Museum". This building was built in the Taisho era and is still beautiful. Inside the museum, you can find excavated items, folk implements, and various collections that trace the history of the city. Some of the world's most precious stones excavated from Sakaide, and some sanukites play beautiful sounds. Admission is also free here.

Now, head out to the suburbs and explore the treasures of history. To the east of Sakaide City, at the foot of Goshikidai, a valley where gods gather and play, there is the Kamiya Shrine, whose main shrine is designated as a national treasure. It is said that this shrine began in ancient times, and it was said that it was surrounded by Oiwa as an altar in ancient times, and that it was surrounded by Tianjin god. You. The main building's purlin has an inscription on February 7, 1219 (Kenpo 2), and has been confirmed to have been erected in the early Kamakura period.
The beautiful main hall of the Mima-sha style is preserved as it was at the beginning, and is the oldest in the country as a shrine with a clear architectural age. It is worth impressing that he has escaped the fires of many times and has been standing for almost 800 years. The vermilion gate is always closed, but you can make a reservation in advance to see it.

The "Sakaide Salt Festival" is held every spring. 2007 is May 5 (Sat). It will be held in Sakaide station square, shopping street, etc. We are planning a playground for the Kume style artillery performance and salt experience such as a salt slide.
