蒸気機関車D51 515号機
Exhibit
👍👍 I have seen many SL steam locomotives so far, but I was happy when I found out that D-51 is here. To be honest, the car is rusted and rusted because it is exposed to the rain without a roof. However, I think it is very rare to be able to see and touch the engine room freely. Because there are many...

Bizen Bori
Historical landmark
😐 備前堀は徳川光圀の父・頼房の命で築かれたそうです。以前は千波湖から直接水を取っていたそうですが、現在は千波湖が小さくなったため、桜川経由で取水しています。備前堀が出来たおかげでそれまでは少しの雨にも氾濫していた千波湖は治まり、逆に水不足や旱魃に長年悩んでいた村々は安定して農業用水を得ることが出来たの...

👍 When you expose your hands to cold water, even in summer, you can feel a dignified and quiet ``shadow'' space.
When you enter through the front gate of Kairakuen and pass through the bamboo forest and Osugimori to reach Kobun-tei, you can experience the ``world of Yin and Yang'' created by Nariaki....

Keiganji Temple
Buddhist temple
🫤 Goodness. Among the shrines and temples in the Kamimachi area, this is the only one that requires a parking fee. However, the maintenance is quite unsatisfactory, and it seems that it will fall to the dark site in one breath.
After all, it makes me realize how important cleaning and pruning is for...
