3. What attractions or highlights can I enjoy from my apartment in Shimanto-shi?
Due to the Shimanto River cutting through most of the city, many activities and social events in Shimanto-shi revolve around enjoying the natural beauty of this naturally clear-flowing waterway. Take a walk down to the river from your apartment and enjoy a leisurely bike ride along its shores, or simply sit by the riverside and soak up its natural beauty. There are also several bridges and low-water crossings located along the river that are ideal landmarks for a longer bicycle or running excursion including the Submersible Bridge of Sada, Kachima Chinka Bridge, and Takase Submersible Bridge.
Nature buffs who want to enjoy more of the scenic Shikoku prefecture can follow the Shimanto River northwards and spend a night or two in camping grounds, onsen bathhouses, and small inns along the river banks. The Yodo line operated by the JR Shikoku company mostly runs adjacent to the inland Shimanto River as well, giving you ample opportunities to explore more of the Kochi and Ehime prefectures.
