A stroll around Omihachiman's "Hachimanbori" where time flows slowly

#Spring0yenTrip "Hachimanbori" in Omihachiman City, Shiga Prefecture, is a water townscape that makes you feel as if you have wandered into a scene from a period drama. In the Edo period, merchants' boats passed by here and there, and even today, stone walls and white-walled storehouses that still retain their appearance stand quietly. If you take a leisurely stroll along the promenade along the moat, you will be soothed by the water surface swaying in the wind and the ducks. It is also popular to rent a kimono and stroll around, which makes for great photos! You can enjoy the changing seasons, with cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in autumn, so you can have a wonderful time no matter what season you visit. There are old-style cafes and souvenir shops scattered around the moat, so it's fun to eat and take a tea break! Be sure to try the Omi beef croquettes and local Japanese sweets. 📍Basic information (check the official website for the latest information) ✴︎Address: Miyauchicho area, Omihachiman City, Shiga Prefecture ✴︎Access: Take a bus from JR "Omihachiman Station" for about 10 minutes, get off at "Osugicho" and walk for a short distance ✴︎Price: Walking around the moat is free.
