掲載日:2017.11.17
Why not take a stroll through the city of Owase by walking along the World Heritage Site "Kumano Kodo Magose-togePass Pass"? Enjoy local gourmet food, visit shrines connected to the Kumano Kodo, and feel warmly welcomed by the warm hospitality of the locals. Here's a trip to Owase!
OwaseCity is famous as a fishing town. I would also like to take some delicious seafood as a souvenir...♪
We're leaving right away! About 10 minutes from Kisei Expressway "Owase Kita" IC. The Mie Prefectural Kumano Kodo Center, which will be the starting point of the trip, is now in sight. The beautiful linear wooden structure blends into the surrounding landscape. The building uses local natural materials such as Owase cypress and Kumano cedar.
The exchange building is spacious and has a great sense of openness. It has become a place of relaxation for tourists.
Before going to Kumano Kodo, learn about the history of Kumano Kodo at the exhibition building. The guide staff kindly taught us and deepened our knowledge of Kumano Kodo.
When you see the whole thing in this model, you can once again feel the grandeur of Kumano Kodo.

Eating a bento while overlooking the cityscape of OwaseCity is something special.

Today I would like to take a walk OwaseCity.
It takes about 12 minutes to get off the mountain and walk along Kumano Kaido. Arrived at Owase Shrine.
It is also the venue for the Yahya Festival, OwaseCity 's annual festival held in February. The Yahya Festival, where men dressed in white clash violently, is known as a strange festival and is said to be crowded with locals and many tourists. I have to come to Owase Shrine again in February!
Am I the only one who feels a sense of relief when I see a big tree?

3 minutes walk from Owase Shrine. I saw a large signboard that read "Asahi Manju Honpo." This is a long-established Japanese confectionery shop along Kumano Kaido that has been running for three generations and is loved by locals.
The photo is ``Igakuri Kinton'' and ``Kuri Kanoko.'' It's packed with the flavors of autumn.

The final destination of this trip was Ose Isamu Shoten.
This is a long-established seafood store that has been in business since 1909. You can't help but fall in love with the delicious-looking seafood lined up throughout the store!
It is stored in a vacuum pack and will last for several months. This is the perfect souvenir!
I'm looking forward to going home and making dinner.
Thank you to Kunihiro Ose for your hospitality!
