[Oshima]
An island in the Seto Inland Sea with the shortest distance of about 1 km from the mainland Shikoku. Approximately 90% of the island is the National Hansen's Disease Sanatorium "Oshima Aomatsuen", and residents are still living a medical treatment life.
The symbol "Pine of the Tomb Mark" is said to have been planted as a tomb mark when burying the bodies and weapons of the Heike warlords who lost in the Genpei War about 800 years ago.
Then, land on Ogijima and stroll down the maze-like slopes!
Enjoy every bit of the island from artworks to the daily life.
[Toyotahime Shrine]
The best view spot on the island. Known as the land associated with the legend of Toyomahime (Princess Toyoma), which remains on the island, it is known as "Tamahime-san" by the people of the island. The shrine connects the Otorii of the harbor, and if you look back at the stairs along the approach, you can meet the beautiful scenery unique to Ogijima.
[Ogijima Lighthouse]
A lighthouse that has been selected as one of the Japan’s 50 Best Lighthouses. It is a Western-style lighthouse made of granite, which is rare in Japan and was built in 1895. In 1957, it became famous as a location for the movie "Times of Joy and Sorrow". At the adjacent Ogijima Lighthouse Museum, materials related to lighthouses nationwide, the Japan Coast Guard, and the history of Ogijima are exhibited.
[Walking Ark]
An artwork by Keisuke Yamaguchi installed at Ogi Fishing Port. A three-dimensional work inspired by Noah's Ark in the Old Testament, it visualizes a white and blue patterned ark that blends into the sea and sky as it walks across the sea.
