Japanese: 猪鼻峠 - いのはなとうげ
Inohana Pass - Inohana Pass

A pass that crosses the Sanuki Mountains, connecting Kagawa Prefecture and Tokushima Prefecture. It is often written as "Inonohana Pass." It is on the border between Mitoyo City in Kagawa Prefecture and Miyoshi City in Tokushima Prefecture. It is 543 meters above sea level. It has been a pass connecting Asan since ancient times, and still retains its former appearance. Currently, both National Route 32 and the Dosan Line pass through tunnels below the pass. Of the passes connecting Asan, it is the busiest and most important. On the southern slope is Hashikura Temple, the inner sanctuary of Kotohira Shrine.
