This course takes visitors from the Takamatsu Port area to the city centre of Takamatsu and Tamamo Park. Permanent artworks of the Setouchi International Art Festival can be viewed around Takamatsu Port.

This city walking course takes visitors through the centre of Takamatsu, the capital of Kagawa Prefecture. The course takes in Takamatsu Castle facing the Seto Inland Sea, artworks from the Setouchi International Art Festival held on the islands of the Seto Inland Sea, and a shopping street packed with shops and restaurants. The course finishes at Koto-den Kawaramachi private railway station. As soon as you exit the station, the Takamatsu Symbol Tower, which houses offices and shops, can first be seen on the left, and a plaza spreads out before you. Walk through the Sunport Takamatsu area by the sea, where the sea breeze is pleasant, to the Setoshirube, commonly known as the 'Red Lighthouse'. On the way, Shinji Ohmaki's work 'Liminal Air -core-' can be seen around the ferry terminal. (Other permanent exhibits by Setogei include Julian Opie's 'Banker, Nurse, Detective, Lawyer' in front of Kotoden Takamatsu Chikko Station, Jun Honma's 'Waiting People / Utsumi-san' next to the Express
