Today, was basically spending 2 hour and 40 minutes in the journey, taking train from Shimonoseki station (local train), then to Kokura station, and from Kokura-Station to Okayama station with Shinkansen, and finally from Okayama station to Takamatsu station with Rapid line.
I was excited, especially after crossing the bridge and entering officially into Shikoku island as I have never been to Shikoku Island and it sort of completes my trip through Japan.

Takamatsu station, open station concept
Was very hungry when I arrived, hence quickly grab a cold noodle, but was not good and I had small stomach upset. Luckily I was at Takamatsu garden area during that time.
Hotel Ekime-Takamatsu was just a short walking distance from Takamatsu station, and once I reached the hotel, I kept my luggage at concierge as the official check-in time is 4Pm. Immediately after organizing my bags, the first location I visited was Takamatsu castle, and garden. Then, I walked to Ritsurin Koen.

In the afternoon of day 7 (first day arriving to Takamatsu, after Takamatsu Castle, I walked to the famous Risturin garden. All pictures below were taken at Ritsurin garden, and almost like 2.5km away and you need to buy a ticket to enter the garden.
One point to take note, please do visit the souvenier shop at this garden, it is a very nice one. If you want to get some souvenier, please do visit, just at the main entrance to this garden.
