    Ehime Pref. Kitagunuchikochou Uchiko 1938
    The Museum of Commercial and Domestic Life is located in Uchiko Town. The building that houses the Museum is itself of great interest, having formerly been an apothecary’s shop that operated during the Edo and Meiji periods. Mannequins and period utensils are used to recreate the scene in the apothecary’s shop as it would have been in years gone by; the unique, highly-realistic mannequins surprise visitors by welcoming them using authentic phrases (researched with experts familiar with the period). The realistic scenes—which include the owners’ family eating together with the apprentices, the housemaid cooking a meal, and little details such as someone talking to himself as he works—are very popular with visitors. Models are used to present information about Uchiko Town’s history and way of life, famous local individuals, etc.

    OK, it has talking dolls, but after the experience of the whole town in general, and the wax factory, it comes off second best. Can be missed.

    ぶどう狩り目的でおじゃましました。あらかじめ予約すると、テーブル席が利用でき、快適にぶどう狩りを楽しめます。座席やブログ畑はきちんと手入れされており、座席には子供用の椅子もあり、家族連れにはありがたいです。また、ブルーベリーは、大変おいしく、ぶどうやブルーベリーは持帰りもできるのですが、大変お得に購入できました。また、園内で販売しているいちごとももジャムを購入したのですが、甘みがおさえられ、くだも...

Ehime Areas

around-area-map

Stretched across the northwest corner of Shikoku island, Ehime is a nature-rich prefecture boasting beautiful coastlines and a rural center where mountains play host to 26 of the Buddhist temples that make up the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Matsuyama is home to an original post-feudal castle as well as Dogo Onsen, one of the country’s oldest natural hot springs. The northern city of Imabari marks the entrance to the Shimano Kaido, a road that crosses six spectacular bridges and several islands, forming a route between Shikoku and mainland Honshu.
