Hi, everyone! This is the second half of our trip around Shikoku. It was just as amazing as the first! We went to the eastern side of Iya Valley to check out two of the last three vine bridges there! We passed through a Scarecrow Village on the way! The citizens of the village joined together and made countless scarecrows, each one set up to mimic the citizens doing their jobs, or standing around town together in little groups. They're equal parts creepy and adorable!

The largest vine bridge is Iya Kazurabashi. That one is the main one and very touristy. 90% of people go there, but we chose to see the other two vine bridges (Oku-Iya Kazurabashi) and had them all to ourselves! It was beautiful. We were surrounded by this amazing nature. Crystal clear water, trees, and mountains.

All too soon, we had to leave. We slept at a hostel in Takamatsu and headed to Naruto the next morning. Naruto is famous for their whirlpools. We went to Onaruto Bridge to check them out. Unfortunately, they were really calm when we were there. I recommend going during the Spring Tides when they're at their biggest!
