[Kagawa] Setouchi Triennale 2025 Megijima, Ogijima, and Oshima Course

• **Oshima's art confronts history**: Oshima is home to the leprosy sanatorium "Oshima Seishoen." The art festival will display artworks that convey the history of segregation and question the state of society.
• **Megijima, home to the legend of Onigashima and breathtaking views**: Megijima is home to the stone walls known as "Oote." The beach overlooking Takamatsu and Yashima on the opposite shore has good water quality and has been selected as one of the Ministry of the Environment's "Top 100 Swimming Beaches." In the summer, many people visit Ogijima to enjoy swimming, camping, and fishing.
• **Ogijima's landscape interwoven with slopes and art**: Walk around the houses clustered on the slopes and appreciate the art that blends into the island. You can also feel the island's new vitality, such as the reopening of a closed elementary school.

Setouchi Triennale 2025 Tour around Oshima, Megijima, and Ogijima (lunch included). Enjoy plenty of island time by touring the three islands! Oshima Oshima is home to the national leprosy sanatorium Oshima Seishoen. For a long time, residents were forcibly isolated due to the government's erroneous policy due to social prejudice and discrimination against leprosy. In 1996, the Leprosy Prevention Law was abolished, and in 2008, the Basic Law on Hansen's Disease Issues was enacted. Currently, the sanatorium provides assistance with daily life and medical treatment for residents, as well as educational activities to properly understand leprosy. Megijima Megijima has a unique landscape with stone walls called "Oote," which were built to protect houses from strong winter winds. At the top of Washigamine, there is the Onigashima Cave and an observation deck, from which you can see the Seto Inland Sea in 360 degrees. The beach, which overlooks Takamatsu and Yashima on the opposite shore, has good water quality
