Michi-no-Eki Yasu

Flow of the course

About this spot

This roadside station stands along National Route 55 in Konan City's Yasu-cho, offering fresh seafood and local farmers' vegetables that take advantage of its location near the Pacific. The dining corner serves quintessentially Kochi dishes like katsuo no tataki (seared bonito) set meals and menus using local ingredients, making it an ideal spot for a lunch to start the day. The souvenir corner gathers specialty products from all over Kochi Prefecture, and finishing your shopping here lets you move around lightly before tonight's fireworks. The facility is barrier-free, so families with small children can use it with peace of mind. The spacious parking lot makes it a convenient base for visitors arriving by rental car or private vehicle.

Tips

Convenient to access by car along National Route 55. The dining corner gets crowded on weekend afternoons, so it's recommended to arrive early. Assuming you'll load souvenirs into your car for the return trip, buying them all at once here makes things easier after the fireworks. The restrooms are also clean and well maintained, reassuring for families with children.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 15 minutes. Midday offers a rich selection of goods, and it's easier to find a seat in the dining area.
