Sunport Takamatsu
 
basic information

Sunport Takamatsu is the name of the recently redeveleloped, business and shopping district around JR Takamatsu Station and Takamatsu Port. Takamastu Castle and the terminal station of Kotoden Railways, Takamatsu-Chikko Station, are also nearby.

Takamatsu Port used to be the main entry point to Shikoku until the opening of the Seto Ohashi Bridge in 1988. Today, the port continues to offer ferry connections to Kobe and some nearby islands, including Shodoshima and Naoshima.

Since the dramatic drop of car ferry traffic in 1988, the area around the port has been redeveloped with a pleasant waterfront promenade and a large pedestrian plaza, flanked by JR Takamatsu Station, ANA Hotel Clement and the Symbol Tower.

The tallest building of Sunport Takamatsu, the Symbol Tower is a 30 story office building with a shopping center on its lower floors and an observation deck and several fine dining options on its top floors, including two restaurants by former Iron Chefs from the popular TV cooking show of the same name.
