Utazu Seaside Park, spreading at the foot of the Great Seto Bridge, is a superb location where you can enjoy the magnificent structural beauty of the bridge while feeling the sea breeze. Within the park, there is a "Restored Salt Pan" that reconstructs former salt fields, allowing for salt-making experiences symbolizing Utazu's history. Also, at the attached "Utazu Umi-hotaru," you can enjoy regional history exhibits and a cafe, and at dusk, view the beautiful sunset sinking into the Seto Inland Sea. At night, the illuminated Great Seto Bridge appears fantastically, making it a popular romantic strolling spot. With a lawn plaza and Lover's Sanctuary, it's an essential seaside park in Utazu tourism where you can enjoy everything from history learning to spectacular views and relaxation.
