Recently, tourist spots in the whole country are taking measures to incorporate barrier-freeness in order to reduce fall in the number of visitors. This is also to invite aged and disabled persons having lower importance as customers so far. But this initiative would be welcomed by the aged and disabled persons. Accordingly, this study aimed at assessing the status of barrier-freeness on these tourist spots by taking Onomichi City as a case, which is also a slope city like Nagasaki. The findings of the investigation revealed that, in the tourist spots of Onomochi City there are problems such as: separate route for aged and disabled persons, lack of restroom facilities etc. This paper concluded with the suggestions to make the tourist spots barrier-free from the viewpoint of wheel-chair user.
