    参拝後の楽しみの一つは門前街でのグルメとお買い物。 ぜんざいを食べたかったのですが、目的の店が改装中で店がなく、ありつけられなかったので、急遽この店に。 食べてみれば普通の鯛焼き、回転焼きみたいなもの。至って普通。 Instagram映えする商品。 フグの海産物がお店の本業なのですね。

    摩天涯から通天橋までウオーキングコースを歩いた後、バスの時間が合わず浦郷まで歩いて昼食を食べるところを探していたら、この店を見つける。岩ガキが1個、400円だったので2個頼みビールを飲んだが、岩ガキは海の味がして最高に旨かった。(他の店では1個750円だった)その後食べたアワビの炊き込みご飯のご縁定食もうまかった。入口は海産物のお店なので、一見食堂には見えないがお勧めです。

    Shimane Matsue-shi Asahimachi 472-2 JR Matsue Sta. Konai

    旅の土産は地酒と和菓子と決まっているので、シャミネを一回りし、彩雲堂で日持ちの良い羊羹などを選び、向かい側の鷦鷯屋の棚にズラッと並んでいる日本酒の前で迷っていると、店員さんが丁寧に相談にのってくれて。 生憎、好みの辛口がなかったのですが、最も辛口に近い中辛の「李白」はどうですかと言われ、名前も気に入ったし、店員さんがマイ定番の「国稀鬼ころし」を知っていてくれたことも嬉しくて購入し、早速お菓子と一緒...

Shimane Areas

around-area-map

What Shimane prefecture lacks in size and population, it makes up for in scenery and ancient mythology. Izumo-taisha, in the middle of the prefecture, is said to be Japan’s oldest Shinto shrine, where stories that delve into the creation of the Japanese race have been passed down over centuries. The 180 Oki Islands, a 40-minute ferry ride north of Sakaiminato, offer an undiscovered paradise well off the beaten track.
