"Yokarou" is a specialty restaurant for grilled mackerel somen noodles located in the tourist area of ​​Kurokabe Square in Shiga Prefecture. The sweet and spicy stewed mackerel is soft even to the bone, and the somen noodles are soaked in the flavor of the mackerel broth, making it delicious! The grilled mackerel sushi is also a great combination of fatty mackerel sandwiched between ginger and shiso leaves 😋 ◆Menu ordered Ochiyozen (with grilled mackerel sushi) / 2,100 yen Saba Kaido (with grilled mackerel sushi) / 1,850 yen Saba Kaido / 1,390 yen There are other menus as well The restaurant has a tatami room with a view of the garden, so you can enjoy your meal at your leisure.

📍 Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture Head to Nagahama, famous for the name Kurokabe Square. Here are tourist spots such as food tours, souvenir shopping, and photo spots. The Kurokabe area is also nice, but the highlight spot I would like to recommend is "Japan's No. 1 Kaleidoscope" 🔭 Completely different from the toy kaleidoscopes I've seen so far, it's just colorful✨sparkly✨ The color and pattern change depending on the amount of light and the angle, so what kind of pattern will appear? That's also one of the fun. Adults will feel nostalgic, and children will enjoy the mysterious scenery, which can be enjoyed by people of all ages and genders.

#DomesticTrip Keisokuji Temple (formerly Hanpukuji Temple) in Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture, is a Tendai sect temple founded by Gyoki in 735 and rebuilt by Saicho in 799. In the Middle Ages, it flourished as the center of the Hubei Buddhist cultural sphere, but it declined and the main hall was burned down in 1933. Nowadays, it is known as a famous spot for autumn leaves, with about 200 maple trees turning vibrant colors in the fall. The "red carpet" of fallen leaves that spreads along the approach to the temple is particularly spectacular, and many tourists visit every year. This photo was taken in December when the autumn leaves were nearing the end of their season, but it was still spectacular. #ShigaPrefecture #KeisokujiTemple #AutumnLeaves #AutumnLeavesSpot

They also have a wide variety of other menu items, including sandwiches and coffee soft serve. Ibuki Milk, which comes from dairy cows raised at the foot of Mt.

I found a hidden gem of a ginkgo tree and a shrine! Today, I'd like to introduce "Amanogawa no Mikoto Shrine" in Nagahama City. It's a shrine that you definitely can't read the name of at first glance😅 The ginkgo tree that grows in the precincts is a magnificent ginkgo tree with a thick trunk, and is a prefecture-designated natural monument✨ The yellow carpet that fell from the ginkgo tree and the leaves that were still on the tree dyed the whole area yellow, and it was a truly picturesque sight🖼️ It's a sight that can only be seen because of the large tree and the large number of leaves💡 I don't think anyone would go just to see this! About a 10-minute drive from here, there is a spot called "Keisokuji Temple" where you can see a spectacular carpet of maple leaves🍁 This is one of the most spectacular autumn foliage views you'll want to see in your lifetime‼ ️ Please go there as a set! 〜〜〜〜〜Information〜〜〜〜〜 📍Amakawa no Mikoto Shrine Address: 1185 Amemori, Takatsuki-cho, Nagahama-shi, Shiga Access: 40 minutes by car from Maibara Station Visiting hours: 24 hours Admission fee: Free 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 #Domestic travel journal #Domestic travel

Although it is so beautiful, there is a really hidden spot for viewing autumn leaves! That is Oumi Kohoan in Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture. It was originally a Rinzai sect Daitokuji temple founded in the late Edo period to mourn the soul of Kobori Enshu, one of the three great tea masters along with Sen no Rikyu and Furuta Oribe. The fiery red Dodantsu azaleas growing along the side of the approach and the autumn leaves of the maples in the garden are very beautiful✨ There are two gardens, one of which is a stroll-style pond garden modeled after the Eight Views of Omi, and the other is a simple rock-arranged dry landscape garden🪴 This place is located away from the city, and is a relaxing spot for viewing autumn leaves where you can only hear the sounds of nature🍁 It can only be reached by car, so it is one of the least crowded spots for viewing autumn leaves in Shiga, allowing you to enjoy the autumn leaves in a more peaceful atmosphere🥰 Why not visit this place this fall! The best time to see the autumn leaves is mid to late November No visits are possible on November 16th and 17th ⚠️ ~~~~~~Information~~~~~~ 📍 Omi Kohoan Address: 135 Uenomachi, Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture Access: 40 minutes by car from Maibara Station Visiting hours: 9:30am - 4:00pm Admission fee: 300 yen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #Domestic travel journal #Domestic travel

You can also enjoy the autumn leaves at Ishido-ji Temple! Set your car navigation system to "Ishido-ji Temple" 🅿️ That's it! How about it!

In Japanese-style architecture, I like transoms and nail covers. I especially love sliding door paintings, so I was very excited.

There are many wonderful historic buildings in Japan, but they are difficult to maintain and are often demolished. Not only buildings, but also traditional Japanese things and techniques. I hope that this will be an opportunity for as many people as possible to look at old things again before they disappear from Japan. If you find a place that catches your eye, please take a retro stroll and take a break! ---------------------------------------------------- #Domestic Travel Record

#100 Travel Style I went to Nagahama City in Shiga Prefecture, which I had always wanted to visit. The central area is concentrated within a 10-minute walk from JR Nagahama Station, so it was easy to visit. The area known as Kurokabe Square is home to a glass museum that sells many of Nagahama's famous glassworks, as well as a music box museum, and is a very photogenic place. It seems that you can also experience making things by hand, so I would like to try that next time. There are also many foods that are perfect for eating on the go, and the curry bread filled with Omi beef that is served fresh was especially delicious. The specialty mackerel somen noodles were also delicious. On the opposite side of the station from Kurokabe Square is Nagahama Castle. It was closed on the day I went, so I would like to go again someday♩ #Shiga #Nagahama #SoloTravel

Room with the best view of Lake Biwa.

#0yentripnovember This is a long-standing yakiniku restaurant in Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture I guess it's known to people outside the prefecture, but a friend who came to visit from Miyagi requested to go here, so we went! Inside the restaurant, there are tables where the meat is grilled on an old-fashioned hot plate, and there is also a tatami-mat seating area where you can sit and eat. We made a reservation so we were able to sit down, but the restaurant was already full by 6pm. They have a wide variety of meats, and they even have hamburgers, which is rare for a yakiniku restaurant! All the meat, including the Chateaubriand, was delicious, very tender and amazing! We finished off with a Shine Muscat parfait, and were very satisfied with this restaurant! #NagahamaCity#NagahamaGourmet #NagahamaYakiniku

The popular "White Gyoza Italian Yakisoba" in Nagahama is a local gourmet dish that allows you to enjoy a unique combination. The restaurant is called Chashin Ekimae Branch. White gyoza is a distinctive gyoza with a thick, chewy skin filled with plenty of filling, and is fried to a crispy texture that is irresistible. The combination of these gyoza and Italian yakisoba creates an exquisite harmony. The yakisoba is coated with a tomato-based sauce, which adds a touch of Italian flavor, which is refreshing. This menu, which allows you to enjoy the deliciousness of both gyoza and yakisoba at the same time, is popular with locals and tourists alike. It was a dish that allowed me to discover a new taste of Nagahama. #NagahamaGourmet #ShigaTourism #0YenTabiAutumnChashinEkimaeMainBranch

Nagahama's Kurokabe Square is an attractive area where historic streets and modern art come together. This has been a merchant town since the Edo period, and the black-walled buildings create a unique atmosphere. Glass art is thriving here, and there are many glass shops and experience studios where visitors can make their own glass works. There are also galleries and cafes scattered around, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing time. You can experience the atmosphere of each season, so there is a different atmosphere no matter what season you visit. Loved by tourists and locals alike, this spot is a strong expression of Nagahama culture. #ShigaTourism #NagahamaTourism #0YenTripAutumn

Recently, I've been questioned a lot, 🤔What's there to see in Japan in September and October? Indeed, it's the off-season in Japan, the leaves haven't turned red, and Mount Fuji hasn't been capped with snow, it's boring~ But‼️As a travel consultant, how could I let you be bored!!! - 【Fireworks Festival】 Yes! The Japanese Fireworks Festival is not only in summer, but early autumn is also a good time to watch fireworks! It's not as hot as summer, and you don't have to squeeze in the crowd! September 28: Oarai Sea Fireworks Festival September 17: Nagahama, North Biwa Lake Fireworks Festival September 21: Himeji Port Festival Sea Fireworks Festival October 13: Sanriku Fireworks Competition October 19: 37th Yatsushiro National Fireworks Competition - 【Autumn Festival】 Although the Autumn Festival is not as large as the three major festivals in Japan, it is also very interesting! This year's Kishiwada Danjiri Festival in Osaka is from September 13th to 15th. Don't worry if you haven't set off yet~ There are two Autumn Festivals I highly recommend in October: - The first one: Oare Festival·Fukuoka Every autumn, in order to pray for safe navigation and prosperous fishing, a grand autumn festival will be held in Munakata Taisha. Starting with the "Oare Festival", it ends with the ancient and elegant "Takamiya Kannabe Festival". Among them, the biggest feature of the Oare Festival is the "Sea Festival". Every October 1st, there are about 300 fishing boats holding a welcoming ceremony at sea. Tourists can participate in a tourist observation boat, which is one of the few different styles in many Japanese festivals. - The second one: Takayama Festival·Gifu Prefecture As one of the three major beauty festivals in Japan, the Takayama Festival has been inherited in Gifu Prefecture for three hundred years. On October 9th-10th, the Hachiman Festival of the Takayama Festival will be held in Takayama City! During the period, there will be a parade of 11 palanquin floats~ In addition to the stalls, hundreds of parades in traditional costumes are also a highlight. In the evening, about 100 lanterns will be hung around each stall, accompanied by traditional farewell ballads, and the stalls will return to the "stall warehouse". - 【Art Exhibition Peak】 Every September is the peak season for various art exhibitions in Japan, and there are super many exhibitions open during this period every year. Just the art festivals and art exhibitions in Tokyo can be overwhelming, and many are free. Friends who are interested in art exhibitions and art festivals, don't miss it~

Hogonji Temple on Chikubu Island in Lake Biwa was founded by the monk Gyoki in 724 AD under the imperial order of Emperor Shomu. The temple features the Kannon Hall and Karamon Gate, which were relocated from the Toyokuni Shrine in Higashiyama, Kyoto, by the will of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It also includes the magnificent and elegant Daibenzaitendo, which faithfully reproduces the style of the Fujiwara period. The Karamon Gate is particularly famous as the only remaining structure from Osaka Castle during the Toyotomi period. The scenic beauty of the island floating on Lake Biwa is renowned as "The Deep Green Reflection of Chikubu Island." It takes about 25 to 40 minutes by steamboat from the ports of Nagahama, Hikone, and Imazu.

The area around Kurokabe Square in Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture, is an area where old-fashioned streetscapes remain. In addition to the shopping district with a Showa-era feel, there are many tourist spots such as museums and historical buildings, so I think I could spend half a day there 👀 It was during the summer festival, so there were many stalls, and Kurokabe Square had a photo spot decorated with wind chimes for the summer only 🎐 The recommended gourmet food is the local dish Noppei Udon. Momishi-ya is famous 🍲 . . . 📍Kurokabe Square 🗺️Shiga, Japan 🕑 – 💰 – #FuriTabi #KansaiTrip #ShigaGourmet

I didn't know about the Hikiyama Festival until I came to Nagahama. It seems to be a very traditional festival, so I went to the Nagahama Hikiyama Museum. Actual floats are on display, and I was surprised by their power and size! The construction is delicate and the gorgeous decorations are wonderful. The exhibits were beautiful and I was able to learn about the history. I'd like to see the Hikiyama Festival in person next year. I hope that this Japanese tradition will be passed down forever. #NagahamaTourism #ShigaTrip #DomesticTrip #NagahamaHikiyamaMuseum

I heard that there is a famous restaurant in Nagahama City for the traditional Hokuriku dish, grilled mackerel somen, so I went to 'Yokarou'!! The interior has a tatami room, giving it a very atmospheric Japanese-style feel. I was able to get in right at the weekday opening, but customers kept coming in afterward, so I recommend going early 💦 The grilled mackerel somen looks like it has a strong flavor, but the broth is well-seasoned, the mackerel is tender, and it goes perfectly with the somen, making it an exquisite dish ✨ Name: Yokarou Location: 7-8 Motohama-cho, Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture, 526-0059 Business Hours: 10:30 AM - 3:00 PM Closed: Mondays Access: 12-minute walk from JR Nagahama Station Reference Price: Grilled Mackerel Somen 990 yen Visit Date: April 10, 2024

Went to Kyoto for a few days during summer vacation, the weather was too hot. Wanted to avoid the crowds, so we had to hide in the museums. The child loves vehicles, and found this museum through a search. The venue is not very large, it's a small educational game field. The museum opens with an 8-minute animation introducing the founder's story. After the animation ends, the screen door opens to the venue (the first experience was indeed a bit surprising🫢). The experience items include slides, excavator driving, rock climbing, fishing, and playing soccer. Suitable for children of all ages. The restaurant at the exit serves Japanese cuisine, including rice balls, miso soup, tempura, etc. There is also a small railway museum and Lake Biwa near the museum. If time permits, you can visit them together. Suitable for young children.
