Enjoy the Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge in Imabari City

The "Shimanami Kaido" connects Imabari City in Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku, with Onomichi City in Hiroshima Prefecture. At the starting point on the Imabari side, Sunrise Itoyama offers rental bicycles, allowing visitors to enjoy cycling along the Shimanami Kaido 🚴♀️🌊. Here, you’ll find the "SHIMANAMI" monument, where you can take in breathtaking views of the Seto Inland Sea! 🚢✨ My recommendation is to take a short walk to the base of the Kurushima Kaikyo Third Bridge. The view from the top of the bridge is truly spectacular! Along the way, you can also catch a glimpse of the impressive dock scenery of Imabari Shipbuilding from above 👀⚓️. Additionally, the "Restaurant of the Wind" located within the Sunrise Itoyama facility is a must-visit spot where you can enjoy delicious food alongside stunning views. Since it often accommodates group reservations, it’s highly recommended to book in advance if possible! After strolling across the Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge, relax and savor a delightful meal while admiring the bridge 🍽️💕
