Takamijima, floating off the coast of Tadotsu Town, is characterized by its "Stone Wall Village" where houses were built on steep slopes by stacking stone walls. Stepping inside, you will be overwhelmed by the geometric beauty and strength of the magnificent stone walls stacked one by one by human hands. From this village, you can overlook the Seto Inland Sea, and the contrast between the blue sea, old tile roofs, and stone walls is quintessential Japanese remote island scenery. Recently, it has gained attention as a stage for contemporary art, with works utilizing vacant houses conveying the island's memory. It is a soul-stirring island where you can feel the wisdom of people who lived with the natural terrain and the peace of the quiet sea while walking steep slopes.
