The best area to stay in Jōtō Chō is the central Takamatsu area, particularly around Takamatsu Station and the nearby shopping arcades.


This area is the main gateway to Kagawa Prefecture and offers excellent transport links, making it very convenient for exploring. It's a bustling hub with modern department stores, local eateries, and a long, covered shopping arcade (Marugamemachi) that stretches for several blocks. The Shikoku Ferry Terminal, providing access to nearby islands, is also very close to the station.


For couples looking for a mix of convenience and local flavour, staying near Kawaramachi Station is a good option. This area is slightly south of Takamatsu Station but is well-connected by train and tram. It's known for its diverse dining scene, from traditional izakayas to contemporary restaurants, and offers a more local feel while still being very central.

The best times to visit Jōtō Chō are during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), offering pleasantly mild weather ideal for exploring.
