Shikoku: A Treasure Trove of Stunning Scenery!

Shikoku is an island that sits between the Seto Inland Sea and the Pacific Ocean, with the Shikoku Mountains running through its center. You'll find an array of colorful scenery that's woven by the sea, mountains, and rivers. Shikoku also has many spots for taking unique train photos!

In this article, our Shikoku-based writer will introduce three of these spots found in Tokushima and Ehime.

All of the locations introduced in this article are accessible by JR Shikoku railway lines. These feature colorfully decorated railcars such as the Anpanman Train, and sightseeing cars like the Iyonada Monogatari and the Shikoku Mannaka Sennen Monogatari. They will both delight your eyes and make for a fun ride!

*When taking train photos, do not enter the railway tracks or interfere with train operations. Please be careful not to cause any disturbances to nearby residents.


1. Shimonada Station in Ehime: Beautiful Scenery Woven by the Sea and Sky!

JR Shimonada Station in Ehime Pprefecture is one of Japan's most picturesque railway spots. The tiny station and its platform offer a panoramic the Seto Inland Sea!

The melancholic beauty of this spot has served as a location for numerous productions, including the 1977 movie Otoko wa Tsuraiyo Torajiro to Tonosama, and the TV animation series I'll Be Here (Kyokai no Kanata) from 2013.

The train platform features a simple three-legged overhead canopy and handrail. Just beyond lie the vast sea and sky, spreading out from the platform.

The simplicity of this scenery makes a beautiful photo composition. Some creative adjustments by the photographer or changes in the cloud formation can dramatically alter the photograph.

On this day, our writer spent about two hours totally immersed in taking pictures while watching the changing cloud patterns.
