    彦根に寄ったので行ってきました。代表銘菓は埋もれ木。埋もれ木は4種類あって、中の餡はみな同じで、通年販売の代表銘菓は、求肥の部分にかかっているパウダーが抹茶。季節限定は御濃茶、ほうじ茶、レモンがありました。限定のレモン味の邪気払い3個入りとあわの海(羊羹)1本を買いました。邪気払いの埋もれ木は、白餡をレモン味の求肥で包んだ1口サイズ。甘いだけでなく、レモンの求肥と白餡の相性バッチリで、甘酸っぱく美...

    Shiga Inukami-gun Tagacho Taga 599
    A 10-minute walk from Ohmi Railway Tagataishamae Station. This longstanding Japanese confectionary shop, established in 1879, is located in front of the gate leading to the Taga Taisha shrine. Operated by the sixth generation owner, the shop continues to make itokiri mochi rice cakes, a local Taga specialty product notable for being made exclusively with rice flour and for their smooth texture and delicate flavor. In addition to standard itokiri mochi, the shop also sells spring-only Japanese mugwort itokiri mochi, summer-only itokiri mochi shaved ice, and Ogon Kichi Takarabo itokiro mochi only during the first three days of January and on Setsubun (February 3rd). The itokiri mochi sets, crispy Itokiri Brulee with matcha or sencha green tea, which can be eaten on-site, are also popular.

    多賀大社参拝の後、名物の糸切餅を食べてみたいので、3個入りの販売があったので購入しました。 賞味期限が短いので、沢山入った箱入りは食べきれず、イートインに寄るほど時間がなかったので、3個入り販売があって助かりました。 糸で切れるほどの柔らかさのお餅で柔らかいこしあんを包んであり、ドライブ途中の休憩で食べるのにちょうど良い甘さで美味しく頂きました。 お店はかやぶき屋根、創業は明治13年の老舗です。

    真鴨鍋を食べたくて滋賀県内の店を探し、すき焼き風の濃い味つけではないこちらに伺いました。 バスツアーの食事でも使われるようで、駐車場には観光バスが停まっていて、案内された部屋の隣ではご主人がツアー客向けに色々と食事の説明をされており、それが聴こえてきました。話を聞けたので楽しめましたが、もし別の部屋があるなら、隣室の声が聞こえない方が良いかなと思いました。 食事は鴨鍋コース。名物の蛸の煮物、鯉の洗...

    Shiga Hikone-shi Konkicho 1-1
    A teahouse located on the grounds of Hikone Castle. The elegant, mountain pass-style teahouse boasts a sweeping view overlooking the castle tower and town below. Customers can enjoy matcha green tea and Japanese confections in the teahouse' tatami mat seating area. The teahouse's sweets are provided by Osuga, a Japanese confectionary shop situated in Hikone City's Chuo Shopping Street which creates regionally-inspired confections such as Konki jelly. Customers can hear the nearby Jihogane time-keeping bell, whose sound was selected from inclusion in the 100 Soundscapes of Japan list compiled by the Ministry of the Environment, at 9 a.m., noon, and 3 p.m. In addition, there are tourist information books about the Hikone area in the teahouse, making it a great place to gather information as well.

    Shiga Hikone-shi Konkicho 3-41
    "A 15-minute walk from JR Hikone Station. This elegant building stands on an artificial hill in the Genkyuen Garden adjoining Hikone Castle. A reception hall once used by the lords of the domain to entertain guests, today it is used as a teahouse. From the sukiya-zukuri-style structure's tatami mat room, customers can take in a view of the scrupulously maintained garden and enjoy matcha tea made with the spring water of Juo Village, counted as one of the three famous ""Kotosanzan (trio of large Tendai Buddhist temples famous in eastern Shiga Prefecture)"" spring waters; along with confectionary shop Itoju Kaho's renowned Umoregi dumplings. The teahouse is a great place to take a break while exploring Hikone Castle and the surrounding area."

    Very relaxing to have Matcha. I felt troublesome to take off my shoes so I had at the engawa terrace. The lady told me the best spot to enjoy the view of Hikone Castle. Very memorable moments.

    宿泊していたホテルのそばにあり夕食で利用しました。場所は彦根駅から彦根城に向かう途中にあるビルの5階です。夕食で妻と二人で餃子、担々麺と天津飯をシェアしていただきました。餃子は平均的な感じのもので、担々麺は辛さ控えめ誰でもいただける感じです。天津飯は酸味があまりなく、カニが少し入っています。手軽に利用できる中華料理店でした。

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.
