A plateau-like mountain range facing the Seto Inland Sea in the central-northern part of Kagawa Prefecture. It is also called Kokubudai. It is a Yashima-type mountain range of 8 square kilometers that straddles Takamatsu City and Sakaide City, and the summit is almost flat. The highest point is Mt. Ohira (479 meters), and tuff and Sanuki-type andesite are widely distributed on granite, and it is covered with pine trees. It is called Goshikidai because of the mountains Shiramine-san, Kuromine-san, Kounomine-san, Aomine-san, and Kinomine-san. A road has been built around these peaks, and you can enjoy the beauty of the many islands of the Seto Inland Sea. In addition to observation decks and rest houses, there is also the Seto Inland Sea History and Folklore Museum and the Outdoor Activities Center, and the museum in particular collects folklore materials related to fishing. On Mt. Shiramine, there is the 81st temple of the 88 Shikoku Pilgrimage, Shiromine-ji Temple, and on Mt. Seiho, there is the 82nd temple, Negoroji Temple. Within the grounds of Shiromine-ji Temple is the tomb of Emperor Sutoku, who was exiled to Sanuki after the Hogen Rebellion. There is a national vacation village on the northwest foot of Goshikidai.

香川県中北部にある瀬戸内海に臨む台地状の山地。国分台(こくぶだい)ともいう。高松市、坂出(さかいで)市にまたがる8キロメートル四方の屋島(やしま)型山地で、山頂はほぼ平坦(へいたん)である。大平山(おおひらやま)(479メートル)を最高とし、花崗(かこう)岩の上に凝灰岩や讃岐(さぬき)岩質安山岩が広く分布し、マツの木で覆われている。白峰山(しらみねさん)、黒峰、紅(こう)ノ峰、青峰、黄ノ峰の山々があることから五色台とよばれる。これらの峰を回る自動車道路がつけられ、瀬戸内海の多島美を楽しめる。展望台やレストハウスなどのほかに瀬戸内海歴史民俗資料館や野外活動センターなどもあり、とくに資料館は漁業に関する民俗資料を収集する。白峰山には四国八十八か所第81番札所白峰(しろみね)寺、青峰には第82番根香寺(ねごろじ)がある。白峰寺の境内には、保元(ほうげん)の乱後讃岐に配流された崇徳(すとく)上皇の御陵がある。五色台北西麓(ろく)には国民休暇村がある。 [稲田道彦] 南方上空より撮影。瀬戸内海国立公園域。香川県高松市・坂出市©公益社団法人香川県観光協会"> 五色台 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
