About Imabari

Imabari, a charming city on the island of Shikoku, is a must-visit destination in Japan. The city's majestic Imabari Castle, a 14th-century fortress surrounded by beautiful gardens, is a standout attraction. What sets Imabari apart, however, is its unique 'Ajitsuke' (salted) ham, which has been a local specialty for over 300 years, and many travelers love to try this delicious local delicacy.

The best time to visit Imabari is during the spring and autumn seasons, when the weather is mild and pleasant, making it ideal for sightseeing. For first-timers, it's practical to rent a bike and explore the city's scenic coastline, as it offers a convenient and eco-friendly way to discover Imabari's hidden gems.
