Onigashima, officially called "Megishima" (女木島), is located in the sea of Japan (瀬戸内海) and belongs to Kagawa Prefecture, Shikoku District. It is said that the tale of Momotaro originated in Kagawa prefecture.

- Cavern of Onigashima

In 1914,
the cavern was found by Sentaro Hashimoto, a local history researcher, and started to be exhibited as "Onigashima" cavern in 1931. This cavern is thought to have been made in around 100 B.C. and is also similar to fortress caverns of Ancient China. Its length is about 400 meters long, and the all-around size is about 4000㎡.

- THE ONIS ARE WAITING FOR YOU!!!

You can take a ferry
from the Port of Takamatsu to Megishima directly, the trip takes about 20 minutes.
From the Port of Megishima, you can either take a bus to the cavern (it takes around 10 minutes) or walk there (around 30 minutes).
