    Nara Yoshino-gun Totsukawamura Ohara 225-1 Roadside Station Totsukawa Go 2F
    This soba noodle restaurant is located in Roadside Station Totsukawago in the almost exact center of Totsukawa Village. The restaurant takes great pride in its fresh-cooked soba noodles made with fresh-ground flour. The Nameko Oroshi Soba, topped with plenty of spicy grated daikon and nameko mushrooms from Totsukawa, is particularly recommended. On weekdays, the set meal which comes with the Gyozen Omakase (Chef's Choice) Mini-don rice bowl and either soba or udon noodles is also popular.

Nara Areas

With a reputation almost as stellar as that of Kyoto, Nara is a must-visit for those searching for the remains of "traditional Japan." The largely green Nara city holds the majority of the prefecture’s treasures, such as the iconic Todai-ji Temple, in which a 15-meter tall Great Buddha sits, and Nara Park, where deer flock to befriend passersby. While mountains are by no means hard to come by in this area, for hiking with a reward, head to the Kii Mountains’ Yoshino district in spring, when the hillsides put on an impressive display of white and pink cherry blossoms.
