After staying in Kobe for a day, we drove to Awaji Island. It takes about 45 minutes to drive from Kobe via the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. The first stop was Awaji Highway Oasis. Highway Oasis is a rest stop on the highway 🛣️, but this one is larger, with souvenir shops and restaurants. The first thing I did when I arrived at Highway Oasis was to try the free onion soup. First, take a small paper cup next to the onion soup machine, turn on the tap, and you can taste 2 kinds of hot onion soup, which are sweet and rich. After trying it, go to the souvenir shop. Here you can find local specialties from Kobe, Awaji Island and Naruto, including Awaji Island onions, onion soup, milk pancakes, onion-flavored seasoning, Naruto Kintoki, Kobe curry sauce, etc. I spent about 10,000 yen and gained a lot. After buying souvenirs, we went to the restaurant on the second floor for dinner. There are two restaurants on the second floor, one is Sushitomi for sushi🍣, and the other is Mikeya which we visited. I chose Mikeya mainly because I wanted to try the Awaji onion set meal and Awaji beef. Once again, I felt the power of the Japanese, using onions to cook different things, including onion noodle soup, tofu with onions, onion tempura rice, etc. The onions on Awaji Island are really delicious, much stronger than the onions you usually eat! --------- 📬 Awaji Highway Oasis 656-2401　2674-3 Iwaya Obayashi, Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture #Awaji Highway Oasis #Awaji Island #Onion Soup #Awaji Island Onion #Awaji Beef #Naruto Kintoki #Mikeya #Great Places in Japan

▷Awaji Highway Oasis A large service area in Awaji Island. This service area is surrounded by the sea and has many restaurants, a Ferris wheel, and an observation deck. The colorful Ferris wheel was a beautiful sight against the blue sky and blue sea behind it. The souvenir shop inside the store has a wide selection of souvenirs, including Osaka souvenirs and Awaji Island souvenirs. Some souvenirs can only be purchased here, so I think you can find something special. ▷Recommended Points From the observation deck behind the store, you can see a large white bridge. The view from here and the breeze from the sea were a perfect place to take a break on the highway. If you have a chance to go to Awaji Island, be sure to stop by. #Osaka #OsakaTourism #AwajiIsland

#Awajishima #AkashiKaikyoBridge The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge connects Honshu and Awajishima. Although it is written as Akashi, the address is Kobe City. It is a little complicated, but once you cross the bridge and enter Awajishima, you can feel the size of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge even more. The longest strait bridge in Japan is not only impressive, but also indispensable to people as a main artery connecting Awajishima and Honshu.
