Timeline
09:40
Enter the Museum of Art, Ehime. It opens at 09:40, so you will have the galleries to yourself. Wander through the permanent collection of Ehime natives like Takubo Kyōji and Oki Kangaku, or check the temporary exhibits.
11:10
Walk 14 minutes to Ladky's for lunch. The original location serves the best Indian food in town. Order wisely as the spice potency varies with the chef's mood, or choose the pudding to soothe the fire.
12:10
Head to Kōshinan Historic Park, just 12 minutes away. Visit the small teahouse built in 1790 as a gift to poet Kobayashi Issa. It is a quiet, idyllic spot inspired by Matsuo Bashō's hut.
Local tip
The museum is closed on December 29 and January 3. Ladky's is closed between 14:30 and 17:00, so timing your lunch for the early afternoon window works best.
