You can feel foreign culture and art through the art book.

Tamamo Park and Hiunkaku
Tamamo Park is a public park that is originally a remained site of Takamatsu Castle in Japan's three major Mizu-shiro (castles built on lakes or marshes for defensive reasons).
The Hiunkaku in the park was built in 1914 as a villa for the former lord of Takamatsu castle, Matsudaira family.
Hiunkaku Garden is designated as a national site of scenic beauty.
For a long time, Hiunkaku has been used as a guesthouse to welcome visitors to Kagawa.
It is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Takamatsu Port and JR Takamatsu Station, and is still popular as a historical building that can be easily visited.





In SETOUCHI ART BOOK FAIR held in such a place, not only books but also delicious food and music from Kagawa are gathered!
Various workshops will also be held throughout the day.
In addition, Hiunkaku Garden will be illuminated in the evening!
