Tokushima's specialty is "Sudachi". Surprisingly, "Sudachi" born in Tokushima accounts for almost 100% of the national market share. Sudachi has a long history, and there is a theory that it has been native to Tokushima since the Manyo period. In the Edo period, sudachi was cultivated in Tokushima for food. Now it has become a specialty product that represents Tokushima. With its refreshing aroma and refreshing acidity, sudachi enhances all kinds of ingredients. Not only the juice but also the peel can be used as a condiment in a wide range of dishes from sashimi to fried foods. In Tokushima, where people love sudachi, sudachi appears in all kinds of gourmet foods! Soft cream with sudachi paste, cheese castella with a sudachi scent, sudachi ramen... The brand chicken "Awa Sudachi Chicken" raised in Tokushima on feed containing sudachi is also famous. In fact, yellowtail is also raised with sudachi in Tokushima. Farmed yellowtail raised in the fast currents of the Naruto Strait is characterized by its firm flesh. It's delicious just as it is, but "Sudachi Buri" is raised on feed mixed with sudachi peel. It is richer in Vitamin E than typical farmed Buri. It has a refreshing flavor.

The stonework was built during the Edo period. Takadaira is a steep area where people developed farmland and built their homes. As a result, stonework was developed to protect the terraced fields and houses. Today, the beautiful stonework is a symbol of culture and history and is a source of pride for the local residents. Takakai's stonework is also known as a famous spot for moss phlox. In spring, the moss phlox planted on the stone terraces bloom all at once, attracting many visitors from outside the prefecture. In addition, an illumination event is held every Dec.. Why not visit Takakai throughout the seasons to see its various faces?
