MK Guide Recommends

Perched on a hill in southern Awaji Island, Uzu no Oka Onaruto Bridge Memorial Museum offers a sweeping view of the Naruto Strait and its famous whirlpools. More than just a museum, the site combines a scenic rest stop with a quirky cultural landmark. Visitors gather here not only for the stunning scenery but also for the giant Awaji onion sculpture—a fun tribute to the island’s top crop. Inside, the museum highlights the construction history of the Onaruto Bridge and features exhibits on the region’s natural wonders, including the Naruto whirlpools. The on-site restaurant serves hearty meals made with local ingredients, and the gift shop sells onion-based snacks and regional specialties. It’s a favorite photo spot and a popular stop for travelers heading to or from Tokushima.
