Takehara City, located in the south-central part of Hiroshima Prefecture, is a town rich in nature facing the Seto Inland Sea. A historic site that retains vestiges of the townspeople's culture in a townscape reminiscent of the Edo period, when the salt and sake brewing industries prospered. In the fall of 2010, the city's first roadside station was built in this area, which has long developed as an important point for maritime transportation. Located at the gate of the "townscape preservation district" where the historical landscape remains, why not work at a new type of roadside station in the center of the city? Michi-no-Eki and Umi-no-Eki are perfect places to visit while sightseeing, as they are not only great places to buy local souvenirs, but they also have spaces where you can work. It takes about 15 minutes by ferry from Tadanoumi Port, where the sea station is located, to Okunoshima. By all means, please spend a relaxing time at "Rabbit Island" where over 1,000 rabbits live.
