2025 Mie Prefecture Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

#FireworksFestival I quit my job several months ago, visited many places, and roamed in every city, only to find that the meaning of life is not work. Don’t forget to live your life while you are busy with work. After watching several fireworks festivals in Japan, I found that the themes of each place are slightly different. I think the most romantic one is the long-lasting fireworks and the colorful and dense small flowers in the Kihoku Town Fireworks Festival. It seems to be called Rainbow Skylark. Many of their fireworks are in line with the shape of round arch bridges and the aesthetics of symmetry. Seeing it live really shocked me. This unexpected journey allowed me to record the happiest months of my life. The transportation is very convenient. Get off at JR Kii-Nagashima Station and walk for 15-20 minutes. Address: Nagashima, Kii-Nagashima District, Kihoku Town, Kitamuro County, Mie Prefecture Date: July 24, 2024 #trip #relax #Japan #JapanTravel #Fireworks #FireworksFestival #GlobalTravel

#TravelJapan Many people may not have heard of Mie, which is in the southeastern part of Japan. It is a prefecture by the sea but not many people go there. The closest city to Mie is Nagoya. Take the Kintetsu train, which is the main train line in this area. Famous tourist attractions in Mie include the Ise Grand Shrine, which is the largest shrine here, as well as Toba, a city with interesting tourist attractions, such as Mikimoto Pearl Island, the famous source of Mikimoto pearls and once used to make Miss Universe crowns. Pearls here are much cheaper than outside. The Legend of the Marriage Rocks or Meoto Iwa is another must-visit place, as well as Ago Bay, the largest pearl farm in Japan. Most importantly, Matsusaka City is a place where you can stop by to eat delicious wagyu. You can't miss it!

#Japan Attractions #Overseas Travel #Japan Travel #Japan Good Places Located in Mie Prefecture, Yunoyama Onsen has a history of 1,300 years. Many great writers used to come here, and now it is also a local tourist destination✨, and its Onsen Street also has many ♨️ hotels, shops and restaurants🍴! The Yunoyama hot spring area is very characteristic, with Japanese-style huts on both sides, and the backdrop is the Gozasho Mountain full of red leaves🍁. It feels peaceful and beautiful! It also has a tear bridge that allows you to see the most beautiful 💕 red leaf hilltops and stream views. You can also soak in the hot springs at the inn at night, which is a great pleasure!

Travel usually has a lot of plans, but occasionally adding some random and improvised itineraries will give the journey more surprises. Kirin Cafe is a small blessing without any arrangements. 📍East Nagashima 24, Kibei-cho, North Mouyu County, Mie Prefecture 🚊 About 5 minutes walk from JR Kii Nagashima Station This coffee shop was found by casually finding an exit from the highway when Ise-shi was bound for Kumano-shi, rather than occasionally during a break at Eki-no-station. This kind of small shop, not located in a tourist area, feels only nearby residents will come to help, but the hut made of red brick walls, and the large "きりんCafe" sign, feels local and very leisurely, so we were attracted by this atmosphere to try. There isn’t much seating in the restaurant, but it feels clean, bright and concise, with wooden tables and chairs with dark floors that match the restaurant’s name, Grove. The breakfast menu only has two options, if you have difficulty choosing people should be very happy 😆 Both meals come with drinks, and come to the coffee shop, of course, to choose coffee. Breakfast was served to see the food was ordinary, but the salad was fresh, the tomatoes were super sweet, and the Japanese bread was delicious that can only be eaten in Japan, plus a cup of smooth coffee and homemade cookies went well together, such a simple meal brought us a feel-good morning. #Look at the Earth Instantly #Overseas Travel #Japan #Mie Prefecture #Coffee Shop #Breakfast #Leisure Life #foodie #Forest System #Food Sharing #Good Morning #japan
