    Shiga Pref. Kusatsushi Oroshimochou 1091
    Focusing on Lake Biwa, this museum explores the relationship between people and the lake. The museum’s aquarium exhibit, displaying the freshwater animals in general and particularly those found in Lake Biwa, is one of the largest in Japan. Some of the museum’s numerous points of note include an exhibit of endemic species such as the Lake Biwa catfish and a 10-meter-long tunnel aquarium which allows visitors to walk under the water and enjoy freshwater fish from around the world. There are also dioramas presenting the history of Lake Biwa and exhibits presenting items once used by people living in the areas. The museum restaurant’s black bass dishes are popular with visitors. Take the bus from JR Kusatsu Station and get off at Biwako Hakubutsukan-mae.

    We started with the aquarium, which is one of the best Ive seen (and Ive seen a lot of them). Really great exhibits --we spent about 2 hours there. The restaurant was also good and the other areas...

    Great museum, just pity that they do not have English on the non-permanent exhibition. Just introduction, but explanation on each exhibit is only in Japanese. It is a gorgeous building, very...

    草津市街の南の山手にある。 急激な拡大を続ける草津市としては新幹線や高速道路の通るあたりは立命館や龍谷、滋賀医大などの大学を中心とした一大学研エリアであって、貴重な自然の残る住宅地の一部となりつつあるのだろうか。 ロクハ荘とプールといった施設を中心に、ロクハ池の周囲にはスポーツ広場・野外ステージ・キャンプ場もあるらしい。 入口近くの駐車場には利用料金表示があったが誰もいなくて徴収されなかった。

    三重TVの番組で紹介されているのを見て、初めてこちらの施設を利用。琵琶湖の南側にあるイオンからかなり北上。充電設備があるとのことから探してみたら、一階の脇道側に２０台分以上ありました。しかし、ガソリン専用車がほとんどのスペースを占領していました。ガソリン車も駐車できるようになっていた。どうやら、需要をはるかに超える充電スタンドを作りすぎたようだ。たくさん空いているのにと一般車からのクレームがあった...

Shiga Areas

around-area-map

Visitors to Shiga prefecture are almost always hopping east across the prefectural border from Kyoto, and they are almost certainly Lake Biwa-bound. Covering an area of 670 square kilometers, Lake Biwa makes up the bulk of Shiga prefecture, with beautiful lakeside paths that offer myriad walking and cycling opportunities, connecting a string of museums, shrines, and picturesque views that finally lead you to Hikone Castle on the eastern side of the lake.
