Uno no Chinu and the smaller Uno Kochinu are by Yodogawa Technique, an artist unit that builds fish from rubbish; these were made from waste and driftwood picked up on the Uno coast and Kojima Lake, and are displayed as Setouchi Triennale works.
- Getting there
- Walk from the gangway: Uno no Chinu is on the pier; Tamano-yu about 5 min (our estimate)

Uno no Chinu, a black sea bream built by Yodogawa Technique from rubbish and driftwood collected on the Uno coast, stands on the pier next to the ship; other Setouchi Triennale works line the waterfront. Then Seto-uchi Onsen Tamano-yu: two outdoor baths facing the Inland Sea, 10:00–22:00 (last entry 21:00), weekdays ¥1,700, weekends and holidays ¥2,000, closed the third Tuesday of the month.
- Tamano-yu closes on the third Tuesday of the month. Check the day before you plan around it.
- 2 hr 30 min door to door needs a 4.5-hour call: a 2–3 hour stop cannot hold it. Pick something closer instead.
- It is a view, so it is weather. Check the morning sky before you commit the hours.
Where the 2 hr 30 min goes
The hour before all-aboard is not in this bar; it is already set aside. The minutes are our estimates from timetables and maps, not timed on the ground.
If your ship is late, cut the 2 hr 20 min in the middle. Never cut the hour at the end.
Routes that already include it
Finished days timed from official timetables and our estimates, with this stop in them.
What to put beside it
Each of these still lands you back aboard with the hour to spare.
