About 500 wild monkeys are fed here, and the Japanese monkeys of Choshikei are designated as a natural monument of Kagawa Prefecture. You can experience feeding them. [Spending time 40 minutes Tonosho Tourist Center → Travel time to Shodoshima Choshikei 30 minutes]

The bus guide will inform you of the departure time for the bus from the summit. The ash breccia deposited by volcanic activity has been eroded by crustal movement, water and wind, creating a gorge that is counted among Japan's three most beautiful gorges. [Spending time 50 minutes, travel time from Choshikei to Kankakei summit 40 minutes]
Movie Village of 24-no-Hitomi
The set used in the filming of the 1987 movie is used here, and once inside, the world of the Showa era unfolds before your eyes.
