Step inside the Maritime Plaza Takamatsu shopping and dining complex for local delights that all ages will love like Sanuki udon and bone-in chicken, plus select shops of widely stocked Shikoku souvenirs.

You can see all of Takamatsu and the Seto Inland Sea from the observation deck. The view is amazing when the weather's good! There are also restaurants and cafes downstairs, so you can enjoy the scenery while grabbing a bite. Just a heads up—the elevator to the top isn't free. I recommend going around sunset. Watching the sun go down is totally worth it!
