I went back to being a kid and enjoyed the stamp rally with an adult mindset, immersing myself in Takashi Yanase's poems and searching for Anpanman and Baikinman.
The Shimanto River area is a bit far from the city center, and tour buses are infrequent. If you're not driving, I recommend renting a bicycle from the Tourism Association near JR Nakamura Station. The distance is long, and an electric bike is more efficient. You can discuss the route with the Tourism Association staff (large luggage can be borrowed in advance). There are no other convenience stores after crossing the red iron bridge, so it's recommended to stock up on water and food before departure. The road ahead will be narrow and mountainous, so please be careful when riding. The water level was lower this time, so I didn't get to fully experience the subsidence, but the rural scenery along the way was a unique experience.
