    Ibaraki Higashiibaraki-gun Shirosatomachi Gozenyama
    "A 156-meter-high mountain standing along the Naka River in the Katsura area in Shirosato Town, Ibaraki Prefecture. During the Edo period, the Mito Tokugawa clan banned logging in the area, and today the area is still naturally lush. In fall, the area is dyed a vivid red by the autumn foliage as if on fire, and the area encompassing the Nakagawa Bridge spanning the front of the mountain is known as the ""Arashiyama of Kanto,"" an allusion to another famous naturally beautiful area in Japan. There is a bell tower near the top of the mountain from which visitors can get a sweeping view of the Naka River and surrounding area. There are trails on the mountain and guide signs, making it easy even for beginners to hike to the top. Also note that Roadside Station Katsura is located at the foot of the mountain, providing drivers with convenient access to the area."

    Ibaraki Mito-shi Migawa 1-chome 2-1

    市街地から離れた場所にある神社からか、ゆっくりと時間が流れるような空気をまとう神社。休日であっても訪れる人は多くなく、境内を散策しながら静かに時間を過ごすことが出来る。偕楽園内の桜山に位置するからか、春には境内の桜が見頃を迎える。 護国神社の名の通り、幕末から戦時中の戦没者が合祀されており、いくつかの鎮魂碑を見ることが出来る。戦争が終わり既に長い年月が経過し、それらの石碑もどうか長い幾年平和であり...

    各地にある大人（オオヒト、巨人のこと）の伝説を集めた展示がありました。だいだらぼうに上るには館内からあがるのですがなぜか一度肛門部分から出られるようになっています。絶対狙って作っていそうです。最上部まで登ると手の部分から顔をだすことができます。大きい建物は楽しいです。

    水戸出張の滞在中に出掛けてみました。やはり以前同様に出張に訪れた際に、こちらの製菓工場に博物館が併設されていると聞き、一度見学したいと思っていたからです。 しかしながらあいにく訪問時は休館。予め確認しなかった自分の責任ですが残念でした。
