Kamata Pond, located in Sakaide City, Kagawa Prefecture, is a scenic spot renowned for its stunning cherry blossom trees lining the water's edge. Come spring, approximately 100 Somei Yoshino cherry trees bloom magnificently along the pond's shore for about 700 meters. Visitors are enchanted by the “cherry blossom tunnel” overhead, the inverted cherry blossoms reflected on the calm water surface, and the views of the Sanuki Plain. The pond's perimeter is about 1.6 km, making it a popular course for club running activities and morning/evening walks.
Boasting excellent access—just about 5 minutes by car from the Sakaide IC on the Takamatsu Expressway—it's a major draw for easy stops during drive trips from outside the prefecture. The surrounding area is packed with renowned Sanuki udon restaurants, and major attractions like the Seto Ohashi Memorial Park, Higashiyama Kaii Setouchi Art Museum, Shikoku Aquarium, and Marugame Castle are all within a 15-minute drive. It's the perfect hidden gem to spend a refreshing spring moment amidst udon tours or Setouchi sightseeing.
