How to enjoy it — it’s super easy♪ ① Get a stamp sheet! → Sheets are distributed in limited numbers at each facility. If one place is out, another facility may still have them! ② Layer and stamp the five stamps! → Stamps 1–5 share the same design across both areas. The final picture is the same even if you don’t stamp them in order! ③ Once all stamps are in place, your cute “Shinyan-ko Art” is complete🎨 → You can take it home as a postcard✨ ④ Show your completed sheet and… → The first 500 visitors will receive an original cotton bag as a gift🎁 Two areas to explore — start wherever you like Stamp spots are set across two areas, the Nakamura area and the Nishitoso area, and they form one single design. Since stamps 1–5 are common stamps, collecting them in either area yields the same final image♪ 🐾 Nakamura area ① Shimanto River Learning Center Akitsuio — Condition: Admission A facility where you can learn about the living creatures of the Shimanto River. With dragonfly and insect specimens and displays of fish from the Shimanto River basin, it’s fun for adults and children alike!
