丈六町

Jōrokucho is a residential neighborhood in Tokushima characterized by a flat layout where homes, small gardens, and local shops are connected by narrow streets. The district displays the typical Japanese pattern of compact properties mixed with older and newer construction styles.

The neighborhood emerged during the 1960s modernization wave of Tokushima, converting former farmland into a residential area. This development reflects the rapid urbanization that many Japanese cities experienced during that period.

The district maintains several table tennis facilities, reflecting the Japanese dedication to this indoor sport within local communities.

The neighborhood connects easily to central Tokushima through multiple bus lines and provides access to local shopping centers. As a typical Japanese residential area with flat terrain, it is easy to explore on foot.

Between the residential homes, local growers still cultivate Naruto Kintoki sweet potatoes, maintaining an old farming tradition. These small growing patches demonstrate how agricultural practices continue in modern Japanese residential areas.
