Located at the foot of the Seto Ohashi Bridge, Kojima is a sacred place where fashionistas from all over the world gather as the "Birthplace of Domestic Jeans." In the "Kojima Jeans Street" spreading through the old town, high-quality denim shops reflecting craftsman commitment line the streets, where you can experience world-class dyeing and processing techniques. On the other hand, beautiful marine landscapes are also an attraction, such as "Mt. Washuzan," which offers a panoramic view of the multi-island beauty of the Seto Inland Sea, and "Shimotsui," which retains remnants of a former fishing town. It is a very energetic area where passion for manufacturing and the calm nature of Setouchi coexist.
