The City
Kochi's best-known fable concerns a romantic monk who courted a lady beside the Harimaya-bashi . A small re-creation of this red-railed bridge can be found ten minutes' walk south from the station - either side of which are pleasant landscaped promenades for the stream below. Also look out for the telephone box on the left as you emerge from Kochi Station; it is crowned with a small statue of the monk and his kimono-dressed paramour. Once you've checked out the bridge, proceed on to the city's main attraction, Kochi castle , best followed up with a visit to the Museum of Art to the east. Kochi's other main sights - Godai-san-koen , the temple Chikurin-ji and the beach at Katsurahama - are all short journeys from the city centre by bus.
