2025 Takashima Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Walking all the way from the station, after turning a corner, the torii gate majestically stands on the lake. The torii gate on the water has always been a dreamy existence. It takes about an hour and a half to travel from Osaka to Omi-Takashima. Upon arrival, you can choose to take a taxi, ride a bicycle, or walk (I walked back and forth this time, which took about an hour). The bicycle rental fee is 500 yen per use. When heading from the station to Shirahige Shrine, it is recommended to walk on the right side. There is a sidewalk all the way. If you walk on the left side, there is a section without a sidewalk, which is quite dangerous! Additionally, if you happen to encounter rainy weather, even if it has just cleared up, be sure to prepare a raincoat. The place to take pictures of the torii gate is close to the road, and without a raincoat, you might get splashed all over by passing trucks. 😂 ⭐ When departing from Osaka, be aware that the train will split into two lines after arriving in Kyoto. Make sure you are in the car heading towards Omi-Takashima.

The 2.5-kilometer-long Metasequoia Tree-lined Avenue is hailed as a hidden autumn foliage gem in Japan. The road stretches from Makino Highland to Makino Agricultural Park, with 500 tall and dense Metasequoia trees planted in orderly intervals along both sides. During the autumn foliage season, the trees transform into a tunnel of red and yellow leaves, creating an endless view of autumn colors. Whether driving through this vibrant universe or strolling along the road to admire and photograph the foliage, the sight of towering Metasequoia trees ablaze in orange-red hues is a breathtaking spectacle.

Lake Biwa. Hello everyone, I am Xiaolu, today I am sharing Lake Biwa in Japan. Lake Biwa is located in Shiga Prefecture, Japan. It is the largest freshwater lake in Japan, with an area of 674 square kilometers and a shoreline of 241 kilometers. It is named after the natural shape of the traditional Japanese musical instrument Biwa. This geographical location is in the central part of Japan, surrounded by beautiful mountains and lush forests. The lake presents a beautiful arc shape, covering a huge area, like a lake ocean. Lake Biwa is considered one of the oldest lakes in the world, formed at least 4 million years ago. About this lake, there are not only many ancient legends and stories, but also a large number of art works related to it. Lake Biwa is famous for its biodiversity and has many endemic species, from fish, birds, to rare mollusks. To get to Lake Biwa from Kyoto, just take the JR Tokaido Line from Kyoto to Otsu, and you can reach this beautiful lake in 10 minutes. Next, we will introduce the main attractions of Lake Biwa. Ukimido Ukimido is one of the main scenic spots of Lake Biwa. It is also known as one of the Eight Views of Omi and is loved by many haiku poets, including the famous Matsuo Basho. The formal name of the temple is 'Kaimon Mountain Mangetsu Temple', which was built by the monk Gen Shin (Eshin Sozu) of Hieizan during the late Heian period (794-1185) to pray for the safety of the lake water and the peace of all people. Since then, for over 1000 years, Ukimido has been guarding the safety of this important lake traffic area. Chikubushima Chikubushima is a small island located in the northern part of Lake Biwa, but it has been revered as a sacred island since ancient times. There are Hogyoji Temple and Tsusumafu Asama Shrine. Tsusumafu Asama Shrine is very popular as a place of power, and there is a mysterious atmosphere in the Dragon God's place of worship, where there is a unique way of making wishes 'Kawarake Nage'. The view of Lake Biwa from the boat makes you linger. Kaizu Osaki Kaizu Osaki extends to Lake Biwa, and cherry trees stretch for more than 4 kilometers. In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom in full bloom, and rows of cherry trees stand on the vast lakeside. Kaizu Osaki stands with more than 600 cherry trees with lush branches and leaves, most of which have a history of more than 50 years. Under the contrast of rocks and the green water of Lake Biwa, the beauty of cherry blossoms is intoxicating. Cherry trees bloom all the way along the lakeside avenue, making people feel like they are wandering in a cherry blossom tunnel. If you want to enjoy the cherry blossom scenery, why not leisurely row on Lake Biwa. From the lake, you can see the spectacular cherry blossom beauty of Kaizu Osaki. Biwa Lake Valley Biwa Lake Valley overlooks the west bank of Lake Biwa. Since 1965, it has been a ski resort and an outdoor activity paradise in the off-season. This is the best ski resort near Kyoto. Biwa Lake Valley is 1,100 meters above sea level and has eight different ski trails. Half-pipe, curved track, cat track and sled snow track, there is also a ski park suitable for skiers of all levels. All equipment can be rented at the ski resort. The Zekkei Ropeway cable car here can accommodate 121 people, with glass on all sides, you can see the beautiful views of Lake Biwa, snow slopes and autumn leaves. Travel

Unasyo is a Japanese restaurant located at Omi-Imazu station. The restaurant has limited seating, you have to take off your shoes if you sit on Tatami room. Smoking is allowed in the restaurant.

Omi Imazu is not considered a tourist area now, it's not easy to find a restaurant. I found this restaurant located just opposite Omi-Imazu station, with high quality Japanese food. The restaurant is spacious, mainly local visitors and non-smoking. They served a wide variety of food, from soup udon to Japanese set dinner, sushi, sashimi etc. Restaurant: Nishian Opening hours: Thursday to Tuesday 11:30am-2:00pm, 5:00pm-9:30pm Price: 500-2000yen Location: Japan, 〒520-1622 Shiga, Takashima, Imazucho Nakanuma, 1 Chome−１−1 Getting there: 1 min walk from Omi-Imazu JR station #omiimazu #biwakovalley #osaka

You have to buy the amenities you need at the reception, such as toothbrush, razor etc. Hotel breakfast is nice, traditional Japanese style breakfast. The hotel is near to Biwako Lake, about 10 minutes walking distance. If you are looking for some attractions away from the city, visit Biwako Lake.

February self-drive trip, Kyoto the next day went, White Beard Shrine is located on the shores of Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture, famous for its fantastic scene of the torii gate in the lake, since it is not far from Kyoto, it is very suitable for a day trip to Kyoto for a day trip.

#tokyo Hase-dera Temple, also known as Hase-kannon Temple, is a Buddhist temple located in the city of Kamakura. The temple is known for its large wooden statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy. We climbed up a set of stairs to a hilltop observation deck for views of the surrounding area. The view was really great. We felt very peaceful to be up there. The garden within the temple compound was also very pretty. #Japan

#gohiking Kibune hike starts at the picturesque town and ends at the kurama temple. if you want a more challenging climb, start from kibune small town. the upslope are steeper and not as well structure stairs, bring walking sticks as that will help. it will take about 2-3h for a 2-3km hike, I will rate is as moderate for beginners as the stairs are really steep for prolonged period. there are railings along the way but you cannot really rely on them all the way as well. saw few walking groups, it is generally safe to hike as the police/community has identify certain spots as k1 k2 k3 in case you need to call for emergency help halfway. bring water and not food in case of bears.

It takes less than 10 minutes to reach Shirahige Shrine. On your return trip, you can use the phone inside the shrine to call a taxi back to the station. But there are few cars here. If you want to rush back to the station, it is recommended to call a car in advance. ⛩️Go up to the observation deck and you can have a panoramic view of the water torii on Lake Biwa The red torii on the wide lake is really beautiful ⚠️Don’t cross the road to take photos on the other side There are a lot of gravel trucks here, and they drive very fast, which is very dangerous‼ ️ After taking photos of the Torii, we also entered the Shirahige Shrine to worship You can also walk along the mountain trails and see Lake Biwa from a high vantage point.

#getgoing2025 The view from Mount Hakodate was nothing short of breathtaking. As the city lights sparkled below, framed by the bay and mountains, I understood why it’s considered one of the best night views in the world. The ropeway ride up was equally stunning, offering glimpses of Hakodate’s charm. It was a magical moment that made me fall in love with this coastal city. 📍Hakodate Ropeway, Hakodate #japantrip #hakodate #hokkaido #cablecar #panoramicview #travel #thingstodo #citydaytours #newyearvibes

Takashima City in Shiga Prefecture is home to numerous beautiful tourist spots that harmonize with nature. Metasequoia Avenue This tree-lined road stretches for about 2.4 km with approximately 500 metasequoia trees, offering picturesque views throughout the seasons. The autumn foliage and winter snow scenery are particularly stunning, attracting many photography enthusiasts. Shirahige Shrine's Torii in the Lake The vermilion torii gate standing in Lake Biwa creates a magical scene at sunrise and sunset. The shrine, with a history of about 2000 years, enshrines Sarutahiko-no-Mikoto and is also known as the 'Itsukushima of Omi.' By the way, wild monkeys appear in this area, so be careful even though they are cute!

#BiwaLake has always been a place I've longed to visit. After taking the JR Lake Tour last year to explore the beauty of Lake Biwa, I decided to take a self-driving tour this year starting from Kyoto. I first crossed the #BiwaLake Bridge (bridge fee ¥150) to the #Sagawa Art Museum. The architectural style is unique, and the water shadows seem to be projected after precise processing. Then we crossed the bridge again and headed towards Takashima. On the way, we arrived at #Shirahige Shrine to see the underwater torii. There is a parking lot at the shrine. After checking in, we headed to our first night’s accommodation, Auberge RUKAWA, which can be considered a luxury B&B that combines traditional Japanese architecture with modern aesthetics. The next morning, we arrived at #メタセコイアNamiki in the north of Takashima City. Although the red leaves have not yet fully bloomed, the scenery is beautiful. There are also different camp sites and hot springs nearby, which is suitable for visiting in the summer. Follow the mountain road, pass Kaizu Osaki, enjoy the scenery along the way, and come to the #つづら尾崎Observatory, where you can see the northern side of Lake Biwa. There is also a store on the observation deck for some supplies. Then after passing #Jianyue, we came to #Jizu Temple to see the red leaves. We went up from #Sekido Temple where there were fewer people. After viewing the red leaves, we headed to our second night’s accommodation, the #Biwako Grand Mercure Hot Spring Hotel in Nagahama City. It includes a buffet breakfast with many varieties and a large public bath, which is very popular among Japanese people. On the third day, we drove up #Ibukiyama. It was the 60th anniversary of the Ibukiyama driveway. After parking the car at the 9th station, we could walk up the mountain road to the top of the mountain, which took about 40 minutes. However, due to the lack of cold-resistant equipment, we did not go up the mountain this time. After the tour, we went to the B&B #大津町家粋世 in Otsu, and also went to #三井outletpark石贺龙王 in Kusatsu for shopping. By the way, the three-day trip to Lake Biwa ended.

Driving around Lake Biwa in terrible weather😂 There are two famous terraces overlooking Lake Biwa.

A drive trip to Shirahige Shrine is perfect for a refreshing day. Under the clear blue sky, enjoying the lakeside scenery while leisurely driving with friends feels luxurious and peaceful. Upon arriving at the shrine, the torii gate standing as if floating on the lake is impressive, and the contrast between the blue sky and the lake is beautiful, prompting us to take many photos. The breeze is pleasant, making it a special place that helps you forget the busyness of daily life. The enjoyable chats with friends and the serene atmosphere of the shrine perfectly match, providing a soothing experience for both body and mind.

A staple spot for sightseeing in Shiga ✨ Known as the oldest shrine in Omi, ✨Shirahige Shrine✨ The torii gates floating on Lake Biwa are truly fantastic and famous throughout the country ✨ The god of longevity and longevity, Shirahige, is enshrined here and is said to grant blessings such as matchmaking, fertility, good fortune, protection from disasters, prosperity in business, and road safety. The torii gates stand on Lake Biwa across the road from the shrine, but it is forbidden to cross the road from the shrine, so you can view them from the observation deck. It looks beautiful during the day and at sunset too✨ It's about 3km from the nearest Omi-Takashima Station It takes about 40 minutes on foot, so I recommend going by car🚗 I'm really glad I went✨ ✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼ Shirahige Shrine 📍215 Ukawa, Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture ✼••┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈••✼ #Shiga #Shiga Trip #Shiga Sightseeing #Shirahige Shrine #Travel with Me

Transportation: Take the JR from Kyoto to Omi-Takashima, then you can choose to walk, take a bus, or ride a bicycle to get there. Comparison: The bus requires waiting, and in a small place, the frequency of buses is sparse. If the timing of your arrival is not convenient, you may have to wait quite a while. It's about a 30-minute walk for 2 kilometers. Cycling takes only 11 minutes. Thoughtfully, the villagers responsible for the station have prepared cycling maps. There are probably about 5-6 bicycles here, and it's also okay to team up and cycle slowly together. Include the Shinkansen return time in your plan, and just make sure to stay within the appropriate time for a round trip. It's 500 yen per bicycle per day, and if you have enough time, I recommend slowing down to fully experience the Japanese countryside~ The rural environment in Japan is definitely world-class. Just so happened that two Japanese ladies also came here because of its fame, crossed the road to take pictures, and later when I saw there were few cars, I also went across. Since ancient times, Japan has had a legend that says 'Torii gates' are the gateways to the divine realm. Influenced by this legend, Shirahige Shrine has an added sense of mystery. It is solemn yet calm, and as beautiful as a fairyland. The vermilion Torii gate stands on Lake Biwa, where the 'movement' of the water complements the 'stillness' of the Torii, making the entire scene appear even more serene, attracting many tourists to travel great distances to visit. The underwater Torii gate of Shirahige Shrine has a history of 2000 years. Seeing it with your own eyes truly inspires awe.

When visiting Takushima, this is definitely a must go place. There is a boat in which you can take to get close the whirlpool. But do note that there are specific times each day in which the whirlpool is the strongest so plan accordingly. The boat ride takes roughly 30 minutes and you’ll get to see the whirlpool and surrounding area up close. The ride can get a little bumpy from the waves and prepare to get wet if you leave the interior area! #Whatanexperience #whirlpool #awesome

I went to the #MetasequoiaNamiki in #TakashimaCity, #ShigaPrefecture (((((((っ･ω･)っ There were a lot of people, but everyone was there when I passed by, so it was easy to run (≧ω≦) I've never run along a road lined with so many trees, so it was beautiful and pleasant ⸜(* ॑꒳ ॑* )⸝ The season of fresh greenery is nice, but the metasequoias are also popular in autumn, so I'd like to come back then~ ( ´͈ ᵕ `͈ ) 🏍MetasequoiaNamiki🏍 Address: Makino, Makino-cho, Takahama-shi, Shiga #Tourism #Shinobi-chan

#日本景点 #坎西景点 #紅葉 Metasequoia Namiki Avenue #Shiga Prefecture #Takashima City #マキノ #Metasequoia #Namiki Located in the suburbs of Kansai, it takes 1 hour from Kyoto Station to Makino Station (Makino Station) by JR and then transfer to the bus for about 6 minutes to arrive at "Makino Pic Land", where you can enjoy the view of Metasequoia Avenue. The straight streets and the Metasequoia trees on both sides of the road, whose autumn red leaves are at their best viewing time (photo taken by the author on December 4, 2023), are very spectacular. Metasequoia Avenue is about 2.5 kilometers long. Many people stay at the front end, but there are actually bus stops and coffee shops at both ends of the avenue. After completing the entire journey, I took the bus back from "Minamimakino" in the middle.
