This park has it all..a lovely garden, plenty of space, a picnic area, a playground, and of course, the one-of-a-kind ancient lutos.

Awesome view of the tanbo art! The Lotus are also very pretty. ¥400 entrance fee is worth it. Best to go in the morning around 6am.

I visited Gyoda on 9th August 2025 for the Demon Slayer rice field art, but coincidentally discovered this beautiful Lotus Museum. It turned out to be a wonderful surprise, I got to learn so many new and interesting things!

Favourite spot for lotus viewing! In 2025, the rice field art is Tanjirou! It's gorgeous! There's a huge line, so keep that in mind! We visited on 19th July! The lotus are in full bloom!

I actually came to see the Tanbo Art (a huge fan of Kimetsu, yes I am) But truly, the lotus here is so pretty. It give you calmness and soothing to the eyes. It feels like being caress or pat on the shoulder after working hars. It is goos to be there. There is many stall that sell food and drinks. The tenants is all kind and warm. And there is one souvenir's shop that you must visit. They sell anything about lotus or about the tower there. They sell lotus product and town's specialty.

Visited the rice paddy art in the end of September. The peak season for the lotus flowers and art is the end of July, but the trip to see the rice art is more than worth it. The scale of it is an impressive site in person. Photos do not do this place justice. The lotus museum/information center below the tower was quite interesting as well! There is lots to do in this area so I recommend making a day trip and visiting the castle and other parks nearby!

I missed the lotus season but I was still able to see a few kinds of lotus flowers there. I enjoyed strolling and taking pictures there. There’s a musical background in the park so it was relaxing just to sit and appreciate nature. Entry to the park is free but if you want to view the park and the rice field art from the tower, you need to pay 400 yen. See more photos on my Instagram (@sherylgim).

Cat is cute.

(Translated by Google) This shrine is built on top of the Asamayama Kofun. I visited it while touring the burial mounds of the Sakitama Kofun Group. It's a very atmospheric shrine, and I even got to meet a cat. The votive plaque had a cat on it, so perhaps it's a cat shrine? I only saw one, but I wonder if there are actually many? (Original) 浅間山古墳の上に建つ神社です。 さきたま古墳群の古墳をめぐりながら訪問しました。 とても雰囲気のある神社で、猫ちゃんにも会えました。絵馬が猫ちゃんだったので、猫神社なのでしょうか。一匹しか会えなかったけど、実は何匹もいるのかな？

(Translated by Google) This was my first visit! ♪ There's free parking in front of the torii gate, which makes for a great location! ♪ A cat greeted me with a bow \(//∇//)\ He's so friendly and adorable ♡ Now, Sakitama Shrine was formerly known as Saiwai no Mitama Shrine! It's an ancient shrine that gave Saitama Prefecture its name, and is built on top of an ancient tomb called Sengenzuka, according to the Engishiki. It was founded in the late 400s to early 500s, before the Taika Reforms! There are two enshrined deities: Sakitama Hiko no Mikoto and Sakitama Hime no Mikoto. They are gods who protect people, bring happiness, and are gods of matchmaking. The auxiliary shrines include Sengen Shrine, Meiji Shrine, Tenjin Shrine (representing Sugawara no Michizane, the god of learning), and Ebisu Daikoku (representing business prosperity and good fortune). It took about 30 minutes to visit everything. (^-^) Since the shrine is located on top of an ancient tomb, the atmosphere changes as you reach the stone steps. The steps are shallow, making it easy to climb. I found a cat-shaped votive tablet and a cat-shaped amulet, and I felt warm and fuzzy at the shrine. (lol) Apparently, there are both pre-written and handwritten goshuin (temple seals), but today I only found pre-written ones! After saying goodbye to the cat from earlier, I was feeling happy and ready to head off. Bye, and be careful!

(Translated by Google) There is a shrine on top of the burial mound, and you have to climb some steep stairs. It was a very hot day, so I was worried whether I would be able to meet the cats, but I was able to meet Sakura-chan and Ten-chan 😍 They were so beautiful, well-behaved, and super cute 💖 They were welcoming me by sitting among the charms, fortune-telling slips, and votive plaques 🥰 (Original) 古墳の上に祭殿がありちょっと急な階段を登ります。かなり暑い日だったので猫ちゃんに会えるか心配でしたが、さくらちゃんとテンちゃんに会う事ができました😍とっても綺麗で大人しく超ぅ可愛い💖お守りやおみくじ、絵馬のところにちょこんと座っておもてなし頂きました🥰

(Translated by Google) I visited this shrine after hearing that it is associated with the birthplace of Saitama Prefecture. The parking lot is very spacious and easy to park in. When leaving, there is a magnificent tree that looks like it might be a sacred tree, so it might be a little difficult to get out. The grounds are spacious and I was able to relax in the cool breeze. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the cats, so I'd like to visit again. (Original) 埼玉県名発祥のゆかりある神社と聞いて参拝しました。 駐車場がとても広く停めやすいです。 出る時に御神木？　っぽい立派な木があって多少出にくいかな？ 境内も広く、涼しい風を感じられましたのでゆっくり出来ました。 残念ながら猫様には会えなかったのでまた参拝したいと思います。

(Translated by Google) ■ You can receive a handwritten goshuin (temple seal). ■ Goshuin notebooks are also available. ■ Reception at the shrine office: 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM This is a very ancient shrine, listed in the Engishiki Shinmeicho (list of shrines listed in the Shinto Book of Engi). It is believed to have been founded during the reign of Emperor Yūryaku (late 400s to early 500s). The worship hall and main hall are built on top of an ancient burial mound called Sengenzuka. Also located along the approach to the shrine is Sengen Shrine. The dragon carvings on the worship hall's transom are magnificent. Maetama Shrine was once written as "Sachitama Shrine," meaning a shrine where souls are blessed with happiness. Furthermore, since the enshrined deities, Maetamahiko and Maetamahime, are male and female deities, it is also known as a shrine for matchmaking. It is also known as a cat shrine, and four cats can be seen lounging within the grounds. Goshuin stamps are available at the shrine office. Since a priest is always on-site, you're sure to receive one. However, please note that they are on break from 12:00 to 1:00 PM. 2. Goshuin ■ Two Types of Regular Goshuin ■ Flower-Water Goshuin ■ Three-Shrine Pilgrimage Goshuin Regular goshuin stamps consist of the shrine name and seal written in regular script. There are two types: Maetama Shrine and Sengen Shrine. Flower-Water Goshuin stamps feature the shrine name and seal written in elegant cursive script, with a colorful flower in the lower right corner. Three-Shrine Pilgrimage Goshuin stamps are given at Maetama Shrine, Ono Shrine, and Mitsugi Shrine. When the goshuin stamps from the three shrines are lined up, they form a single picture. Collecting all the goshuin stamps will grant you the Mangan no Goshuin. In addition to these three types, we also distribute limited-time goshuin stamps depending on the season. The "Cat Day Goshuin" stamp on February 22nd is especially popular. Details will be announced on our website. 3. Goshuin Books ■ Three large-size stamps.

(Translated by Google) Sakitama Shrine Enshrined Deity: Maetamahiko Maetamahime The adorable mascot cat He's really chewing on me 🐈 The long journey in pursuit of Konohanasakuyahime is coming to an end. Maetama Shrine is the shrine dedicated to Konohanasakuyahime, and the relocation of Konohanasakuya gave birth to Mount Fuji Sengen Shrine. Further relocations led to the creation of Saitama Prefecture's Maetama Shrine (Gyoda City) and the place names Saitama (Maetama). Konohana no Sakuya was Ninigi's official wife, and while this is generally believed and unquestioned, a Kyushu ancient history researcher states that "Ninigi and Konohana no Sakuya's marriage lasted less than a year, and she subsequently lived with Toyotamahiko (Yatagarasu)..." First, for general understanding: From Wikipedia Konohana no Sakuya-hime: Ninigi-no-Mikoto, the grandson of Amaterasu Omikami, who descended to Hyuga, met her at Cape Kasasa (a legendary site in Miyazaki and Kagoshima prefectures) and proposed to her. Her father, Ooyamatsumi, was delighted and offered her along with her older sister, Iwanaga-hime, but Ninigi-no-Mikoto sent back the ugly Iwanaga-hime and married only the beautiful Konohana no Sakuya-hime. Oyamatsumi was angry and said, "The reason I gave my two daughters together is because I made a vow that if he marries Iwanagahime, the son of the heavenly gods (Ninigi no Mikoto) will have a life as eternal as a rock, and if he marries Konohana no sakuyabime, he will prosper like the blossoms of a tree. If he marries only Konohana no sakuyabime, the son of the heavenly gods will have a life as fleeting as a flower." This is why the lifespan of the emperors, their descendants, will not be as long as that of the gods (see Tenson Korin). Konohana no sakuyabime became pregnant in one night, but Ninigi suspected that the child might be that of a land god. To clear her name, she made a vow and entered the birthing chamber, believing that "if the child is truly that of the heavenly deity Ninigi, she will be able to give birth safely no matter what." She then set fire to the birthing chamber and gave birth to three children: Hoderi (or Hoakari), Hosuseri, and Hoori (Yamasachihiko, whose ridge is Takaya Shrine in Murakaku-cho, Miyazaki City) (see "Birth in the Fire"). Hoori's grandson was the first emperor, Emperor Jimmu. This is the commonly held belief, but Ninigi was really a spoiled son or a snotty-nosed boy... All he did was descend from heaven. If you travel around the country following the accepted interpretation of the Kojiki, you will find many shrines whose origins differ from their original ones. Just because a shrine is large does not necessarily mean it is telling the truth. From the Musashi Province Maetama Shrine website Maetama Shrine is located in Gyoda City, Saitama Prefecture, adjacent to the Sakitama Kofun Group. It stands on top of an ancient tomb known as Sengenzuka, measuring 8.7 meters in height and 92 meters in circumference. The two deities enshrined here are Maetamahiko-no-Mikoto and Maetamahime-no-Mikoto, gods who protect people and bring happiness. One theory about when Maetama Shrine was first enshrined is that it dates back more than a century before the Taika Reforms (645), to the Kofun period (late 400s to early 500s) during the reigns of Emperor Ankan, Emperor Senka, or Emperor Yuryaku. As a vestige of this, the shrine was built facing the group of tombs in prayer. Maetama Shrine is a majestic and venerable ancient shrine with a history spanning over 1,500 years. Maetama Shrine is listed in the Engishiki (927) and is also known as Saiwai no Mitama Shrine. The name "Maetama-gun," originally given to the shrine in the 700s, later evolved into "Saitama-gun," a name that evolved into the current Saitama Prefecture. Maetama Shrine is said to be the shrine where the name Saitama Prefecture originated. Maetama County, Musashi Province, is said to be a place name that appears in the Shosoin Documents Family Register from 726 (Jinki 3). An inscription on an iron sword excavated from the Inariyama Kofun Tumulus, deciphered in 1978 (Showa 53), confirms that the eastern provinces under the Yamato court's control extended into northern Musashi Province in 471. The shrine is built directly above the Sakitama Tumulus Group, where local powerful families from northern Musashi Province are believed to be buried. Maetama Shrine enshrines two Izumo-related deities mentioned in the Kojiki: Sakitamahime-no-Mikoto and Sakitamahiko-no-Mikoto. She is the daughter of Amano-Mikanushinokami and the mother of Mikanushihiko-no-kami. Since both a female and male deity are enshrined here, many visitors come to pray for success in love. There's also a Tamasaki Shrine near Kagoshima Mizobe Airport in Kyushu. According to the local history of the former Mizobe town, Kotamahime evolved into Maetamahime. However, the "mae" in Maetama comes from the "saku" (meaning "before") in Konohanasakuya, which means "saku" (meaning "jackhammer"), and the "kake" (meaning "saku") in jackhammer, which changed to "mae" (meaning "before"). It's not a transformation from "konohanasakuya" to "mae" (meaning "fore"). From this, Konohanasakuyahime appears not to be a princess clad in a beautiful kimono, but rather a mining engineer who extracts metals, refines them, and uses metallurgy to extract iron ore from mines. I looked up the Gyoda City Board of Education's view on the city's website to see what the city's Board of Education thinks about this. Maetama Shrine is an ancient shrine that appears in the Engishiki Shinmei-cho (District of the Imperial Court) as Maetama Shrine Niza Ko. Its enshrined deities are Maetamahiko and Maetamahime, and they are believed to have originally been national deities worshipped by the powerful clan that constructed the Saitama Kofun Group. The New Musashi Fudoki-go also states that during the reign of the Narita clan, Sengen Shrine within Oshi Castle was enshrined here. As worship of Sengen Shrine flourished during the Edo period, the shrine's name also became Sengen Shrine, but in the Meiji period, it was reverted to its original name, Maetama Shrine. Konohanasakuyahime's second husband, Toyotamahiko (Yatagarasu, Chujo, Chichibu-no-Okami, Kamotaketsunomi, Ame-no-futotama, Owakako, Toyokuni-no-Musume, Yatogamikane, Toyohiwake...), who accompanied her, was also a god of ironworks, and the reason for the move may be related to this. After ending her marriage to Ninigi, Konohanasakuyahime went to the Yatagarasu, changed her name to Maetamahime, and traveled to the foot of Mount Fuji, then to Saitama Prefecture, where she settled down. If you go to Maetama Shrine, you will find the shrine of Konohanasakuyahime. Above it, there are shrines for Maetamahiko and Maetamahime, but I believe Maetamahiko is enshrined on top, and Maetamahime (Konohanasakuyahime) is enshrined below. There are votive plaques displayed near the shrine of Konohanasakuyahime, so please take a look. The old man with a beard is the Yatagarasu, and the woman looking at it is Konohanasakuyahime. Looking at the carvings at the shrine dedicated to Maetamahiko above, we see an old man with a beard in the center, a woman on the left, and what looks like Sarutahiko on the right. Looking at each of these carvings, we can see that they may have been brought to Yatagarasu by Sarutahiko. The fact that Maetama Shrine is located in front of the mining engineer and the Inariyama Kofun makes me think that this is the case. The child born to Maetamahiko and Maetamahime is the priest Tamamikoto. The priest Tamamikoto is the ancestor of the Tachibana clan. Konohanasakuyahime is the one who brought prosperity to Saitama Prefecture. The people of the prefecture are descendants of Konohanasakuyahime. Please remember this from time to time. 🐈 I don't know (lol) Please go and check it out. 🐈 Thank you. 🐈 (Original) さきたま神社 御祭神 前玉彦 前玉姫 看板猫　かわいい ガチカミカミしてきます🐈 木花咲耶姫を追いかける長い旅が終わろうとしています。 木花咲耶姫を祀る神社が前玉神社でありそのコノハナノサクヤの移動により富士山浅間神社が生まれさらなる移動により埼玉県の前玉神社（行田市）や埼玉（前玉）という地名がつけられ 埼玉県が出来ます。 一般的にコノハナノサクヤはニニギの正妃です、そのことは誰もが信じて疑っていないのですが九州の古代史研究者は「ニニギとコノハナノサクヤの婚姻関係は一年足らずでその後は豊玉彦（ヤタガラス）と一緒に暮らしている。…」としています まずは一般的な理解のために 「ウィキペディア」から コノハナノサクヤビメ 日向に降臨した天照大神の孫・ニニギノミコトと、笠沙の岬（宮崎県・鹿児島県内に伝説地）で出逢い求婚される。父のオオヤマツミ はそれを喜んで、姉のイワナガヒメ と共に差し出したが、ニニギノミコトは醜いイワナガヒメを送り返し、美しいコノハナノサクヤビメとだけ結婚した。オオヤマツミはこれを怒り「私が娘二人を一緒に差し上げたのはイワナガヒメを妻にすれば天津神 の御子（ニニギノミコト）の命は岩のように永遠のものとなり、コノハナノサクヤビメを妻にすれば木の花が咲くように繁栄するだろうと誓約 を立てたからである。コノハナノサクヤビメだけと結婚すれば、天津神の御子の命は木の花のようにはかなくなるだろう」と告げた。それでその子孫の天皇の寿命も神々ほどは長くないのである（天孫降臨 を参照）。 コノハナノサクヤビメは一夜で身篭るが、ニニギは国津神 の子ではないかと疑った。疑いを晴らすため、誓約をして産屋に入り、「天津神であるニニギの本当の子なら何があっても無事に産めるはず」と、産屋に火を放ってその中でホデリ（もしくはホアカリ）・ホスセリ・ホオリ（山幸彦、山稜は宮崎市村角町の高屋神社）の三柱の子を産んだ（火中出産 を参照）。ホオリの孫が初代天皇の神武天皇 である。 これが通説ですがこのニニギという神はホントにドラ息子というかハナタレ小僧というか…何をやったかというと 天孫降臨だけという この古事記の通説通りに全国を歩き回りますと神社の由緒と違う神社がゴロゴロ出てきます。神社の規模が大きいから真実を述べているわけじゃないのです 武蔵国前玉神社HPより 前玉神社は埼玉県行田市、さきたま古墳群に隣接する神社です。高さ8.7m、周囲92mほどの浅間塚と呼ばれる古墳上に建てられております。ご祭神は前玉彦命・前玉姫命の二柱であり、人の身を守り、幸福をもたらす神様が祀られています。 前玉神社が最初に祀られた時代については、一説には大化の改新（645年）より一世紀以上さかのぼる安閑天皇、宣化天皇あるいは雄略天皇の頃の古墳時代（400年代後半～500年代前半）ではないかと考えられています。その名残として社は古墳群に向かって祈願するように建立されています。 前玉神社は千数百年の歴史を持つ荘厳で由緒ある古社 です。 前玉神社は「延喜式」（927年）に載る古社で、幸魂（さいわいのみたま）神社ともいいます。700年代の古代において当神社よりつけられた【前玉郡】は後に【埼玉郡】へと漢字が変化し、現在の埼玉県へとつながります。前玉神社は、埼玉県名の発祥となった神社であると言われています。 武蔵国前玉郡（むさしのくにさきたまのこおり）は、726年（神亀３年）正倉院文書戸籍帳に見える地名だと言われており、1978（昭和53）年に解読された稲荷山古墳出土の鉄剣の銘文から、471年には大和朝廷の支配する東国領域が、北武蔵国に及んでいたのは確実であると言われています。 北武蔵国の地元豪族が眠ると思われるさきたま古墳群の真上に建てられています。 前玉神社の御祭神は、『古事記』所載の出雲系の神である、前玉比売神（サキタマヒメノミコト）と前玉彦命（サキタマヒコノミコト）の二柱です。天之甕主神（アマノミカヌシノカミ）の子で、甕主日子神（ミカヌシヒコノカミ）の母です。 女神と男神が一緒に祀られていることから、恋愛成就を祈願する参拝者の方が多く見られます。 九州鹿児島溝辺空港近くに同じ玉前神社があります旧溝部町郷土史によれば幸玉姫が前玉姫に転化したとされていますが前玉の「前」は、コノハナノサクヤのサクが削岩機の削が咲に変わり、前の字に替えられたものであり、幸から前への転化ではないとしてます これから見えるのは木花咲耶姫はキレイな着物を来たプリンセスではなく 鉱山から金属採取、精錬、冶金、 鉄鉱を搾取する鉱山技術者と見て取れます。 行田市の教育員会はどのように捉えているかを同市のHPで見てみました。 前玉神社は、「延喜式神名帳」に前玉神社二座小と出てくる古社です。祭神は、前玉彦、前玉姫の二神で、本来は埼玉古墳群を築造した豪族が祭った国神であったと思われます。また、「新編武蔵風土記稿」では、成田氏の時代に忍城中の浅間神社を勧請したとされており、江戸時代に浅間神社の信仰が盛んになり、社名も浅間神社と称するようになりましたが、明治になって旧に復し、前玉神社になりました。 木花咲耶姫と同行した次の夫である豊玉彦（八咫烏、中将、秩父大神、鴨建角身、天太玉、小若子、豊国主、八意思兼、豊日別…）も製鉄神であり、移動した理由もそれに関係しているように思えます。 木花咲耶姫はニニギとの婚姻関係を終わらせ八咫烏のもとに行き前玉姫と変名なさって富士山の麓→埼玉県へ行きここで落ち着かれます。 前玉神社へ行かれますと 木花咲耶姫のお宮があり。その上に 前玉彦と前玉姫のお宮がありますが 僕は 上に前玉彦 下に前玉姫（木花咲耶姫） を祀っていると考えます。 木花咲耶姫のお宮のほうに絵馬が飾られているので見てみてください。 髭を携えた爺さんが八咫烏 それを眺める女性が木花咲耶姫。 上の前玉彦を祀るお宮の彫刻を見ると 中央に髭を携えた爺さん 左に女性 右に猿田彦っぽい それぞれ彫られているのを見ると 猿田彦に連れられて八咫烏にもとへやって来たのかな?ともとれますが 鉱山技術者と稲荷山古墳の前に前玉神社が鎮座するということは そういうことかなと思うのです 前玉彦と前玉姫のあいだに産まれた御子様が神主玉命です 神主玉命は橘一族の祖神となります 木花咲耶姫は埼玉県の地を繁栄させたお方です。県民の皆さまは木花咲耶姫の末裔です。たまに思い出して上げてください🐈 知らんけど（笑） ぜひ行かれてください🐈 ありがとうございます🐈

Good place to learn about archeology. You can clearly see what is in the Kofuns, and even walk in the side of one. The museum is small but has some high quality artifacts

Amazing place, very reminicent of Cahokia Mounds. A bit of a trek, would recommend either timing the bus or using a taxi service. The museum gets 4 stars because they did not have the level of information I was expecting about the details of how the sites were constructed. Not sure if the issue is that academics do not know, or the person I asked at the museum did not know. (Questions like, how did they bring stones all the way from Tokyo bay, how they seemed to chip/smooth the stones, what the insides of the mounds are filled with) If you have any interest in archeological sites, it is worth visiting.

Really interesting and beautiful park

(Translated by Google) From July 12th to August 31st, 2025, the museum is holding the "Saitama Archaeological Exhibition: Messages from the Underground," showcasing recently excavated artifacts from throughout Saitama Prefecture. This museum is dedicated to the Sakitama Kofun Group, a group of nine large ancient tombs designated as a national special historic site. Admission costs 200 yen and allows visitors to tour the main building and the Shogunyama Kofun Exhibition Hall. The group of tombs was built between the end of the 5th century and the 7th century, and one of these, the Inariyama Kofun, yielded a gold-inlaid iron sword, said to be a once-in-a-century discovery. The Inariyama Kofun was partially destroyed during the period of rapid economic growth, and the current tomb is a restored burial mound. The stone chamber in the circular mound at the rear of the tomb was robbed, but many grave goods, primarily weapons, discovered in the gravel chamber and around the wooden coffin, apart from the main part, have been designated national treasures. The original gold-inlaid iron swords were previously on display, but for preservation reasons, elaborate replicas are now on display. The many excavated items are magnificent, but what's most amazing is the densely packed group of large kofun tombs. Admission to the kofun park is free, and there's a large parking lot, making it ideal for a stroll. Photography and posting on social media is also allowed in this museum. (Original) 令和7年7月12日～8月31日まで 「埼玉の考古おひろめ展　地中からのメッセージ」を行っていて埼玉県各地からの最近の出土物を展示しています。 国の特別史跡に指定されている9基の大型古墳からなる「さきたま古墳群」に関する博物館。 入場料200円で本館と将軍山古墳展示館を見学することが出来ます。 古墳群は5世紀末～7世紀にかけて作られており、その一つである稲荷山古墳からは100年に一度の大発見と言われる「金錯銘鉄剣」が見つかりました。 稲荷山古墳は高度成長時代に一部、壊されてしまって現在の古墳は再生古墳となります。 後円部にあった石室は盗掘されていましたが主格部とは別に礫槨部分（れきかく）と木棺周辺から発見された武具を中心とする多くの副葬品が国宝指定を受けました。 金錯銘鉄剣は以前は本物が展示されていたのですが保存の観点から現在は精巧なレプリカが展示されています。 多くの出土物も見事なのですが、何より素晴らしいのは密集した大型古墳群で古墳公園への入場は無料で広い駐車場もあり散策に向いています。 この博物館は写真撮影、SNS投稿もOKとのことです。

(Translated by Google) I visited the museum to see the special exhibition. It showcases ruins from Saitama Prefecture, and it really brought home to me just how rich our prefecture's ruins are. The permanent national treasure exhibits include not only the gold-inlaid iron sword, but also mirrors, magatama beads, and many other national treasures. By the way, a replica of the gold-inlaid iron sword is currently on display, but it is scheduled to be unveiled again around spring next year. There are also many other fascinating exhibits, such as haniwa (clay figures). There are also ancient burial mounds nearby, so it's worth the trip to get here. (Original) 特別展が見たくて訪問しました。埼玉県内の遺跡を展示しているのですが、わが県の遺跡の豊富さを改めて認識した次第。 常設の国宝展示物も金錯銘鉄剣だけでなく鏡や勾玉など数々の国宝を拝観することが出来ます。 ちなみに金錯銘鉄剣は現在レプリカを展示してますが、来年の春頃再びお披露目予定のようです。 他にも埴輪等、魅力的な展示物が目白押し。隣には古墳群もありますし、ここに来るために遠出する価値があるので是非足を運んでみてください。

(Translated by Google) I came here because I heard that the admission ticket to Shogunyama Kofun included entry. There aren't many exhibits, but there are items from Shogunyama Kofun and other kofun on display. I recommend seeing them together when you visit Sakitama Kofun Park. (Original) 将軍山古墳の入場券で入れるとの事で来ました。展示物はそんなに多くは無いですが、将軍山古墳の物や他の古墳から出た物が展示されています。さきたま古墳公園に来た時は一緒に見る事をおすすめします。

(Translated by Google) The National Treasure, the Gold-Inlaid Iron Sword, is on display. The 115 characters inscribed on the sword read, "(For generations, I have served as commander of the Imperial Guard. I served King Wakatakeru and assisted him in governing the country. Therefore, in July of the Xinhai year (471), I commemorate my glorious achievements by inscribing this magnificent sword." This national treasure, discovered with the largest number of fully readable characters on any ancient sword still in existence in Japan, is a replica. There was also a magatama-making workshop during the exhibition. Outside, there are monuments bearing names derived from places in Saitama Prefecture, making this a place worth seeing for its historical value. (Original) 国宝、「金錯銘鉄剣」が展示されています。 鉄剣に刻まれた115文字は「(代々 親衛隊長を務めてきた。わたくしはワカタケル大王に仕え、天下を治めるのを補佐した。そこで辛亥の年(471) 7月に、このすばらしい刀剣にこれまでの輝かしい功績を刻んで記念とする」と記され、日本に現存する古い剣で最多の文字列で全て読める文字で見つかった国宝が観れます。（レプリカです。） また、時間で勾玉作成教室がありました。 外には埼玉県の地名由来の記念碑などもあり、歴史的にも観るべき価値のある場所です。

My local shine I visit on New Year's

(Translated by Google) I visited the shrine on June 23, 2025. It was a sunny day despite being in the rainy season, and I walked there from Gyoda City Station, but I was drenched in sweat. I bowed in front of the torii gate, purified my body and mind at the temizuya (purification fountain), and then prayed in the worship hall. There is a suikinkutsu (water chimes) to the left of the worship hall, and I tried to pick up the sound on the video, but when I looked later, I couldn't pick it up 😅 So I prayed again behind the main hall, and was given a goshuin (stamp) and an omamori (amulet). There were a lot of people visiting, even though it was a weekday. (Original) 令和７年６月２３日に参拝させていただきました。 梅雨時期ですが晴天、行田市駅から徒歩で向いましたが汗だくになっちゃいました。 鳥居前にて一礼、手水舎にて心身を清め拝殿にて参拝させていただきました。 拝殿左側に水琴窟があり、動画で音を拾おうとしましたが、あとから見ると拾えてませんでした😅 で、本殿裏にて再び参拝させていただき、御朱印とお守りを授からせていただきました。 参拝されている方、平日にも関わらず多かったですね。

(Translated by Google) It's a 7-8 minute walk from the Oshi Castle Bus Terminal on the city loop bus. There are shrines for various gods inside, so I visited them. There were some very interesting votive plaques, but considering my age, I bought an eye charm this time. It was a very hot day, but the beautiful green bamboo was refreshing. (Original) 市内循環バスで忍城バスターミナルより徒歩7、8分。色々な神様のお社が入っていて参拝しました。なかなか面白い絵馬もありましたが今回は年齢的に目のお守りを購入。とても暑い日でしたが綺麗な緑の竹が涼やかでした。

(Translated by Google) A quiet, small shrine. It is said that there are various gods who ward off illnesses, but the one who is most famous for warding off cancer is located here. Except in summer, you can enjoy the flower water basin in the first half of the month. 🏵️For the latest information, check Gyoda City Tourism NAVI. There is parking available for about 8 cars. (Original) 静かなこじんまりとした神社。 様々な病封じの神様がいるそうで、癌封じが有名みたいです。 夏以外は月前半で花手水が楽しめるそうです🏵️最新情報は行田市観光NAVIにて。 8台ほど停められる駐車場あり。

(Translated by Google) In addition to Hachiman Shrine, there are many subsidiary shrines such as Eye Shrine, Inari Shrine, Atago Shrine, and Water Shrine, and although it is a compact shrine, it is filled with refreshing air. It feels even more comfortable now that the leaves are changing color. (Original) 八幡神社の他、目の神社や稲荷神社、愛宕神社水の神社等沢山の摂社がありコンパクトながら清々しい空気に満ちた神社です。今、ちょうど紅葉の季節でよけいに心地よく思えます。

(Translated by Google) ■ You can receive a handwritten goshuin stamp. ■ Goshuin stamp books are also available. ■ Reception at the shrine office: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM The exact date of the shrine's founding is unknown, but it is said to have been enshrined during Minamoto no Yoriyoshi and Yoshiie's campaigns in Oshu. Located in a corner of the shopping district, about an 8-minute walk from Gyoda-shi Station on the Chichibu Railway, This shrine has a truly gorgeous atmosphere. The grounds are not particularly large, but in addition to the many shrines within, there are many other sights to see, such as the "nade peach" and "knotted ginkgo" trees, the bamboo grove, and Kagami Pond. The water basin is always decorated with seasonal flowers, a delight to the eyes of worshippers. Goshuin stamps are available at the shrine office. With multiple priests on-site, you're sure to receive one. 2. Goshuin (Seal Stamps) ■ Two Types at Gyoda Hachiman Shrine ■ Limited Edition Goshuin ■ Two Shrines Within the Shrine Grounds Gyoda Hachiman Shrine's goshuin stamps are available in two types: the regular goshuin, written in elegant cursive calligraphy, and the paper goshuin, featuring the shrine's crest, a comma-shaped comma-shaped cross, and a square seal with the shrine name written in seal script. The "limited edition goshuin" features a refined seasonal design as the background. When I visited, the design featured a field of cherry blossoms. The goshuin stamps were issued as paper goshuin. The goshuin stamps for the shrine grounds are for "Okuninushi Shrine" and "Me Shrine." 3. Goshuin Books ■ Four Standard Sizes One design features a dignified shrine building on a gold cover, and three gorgeous designs feature autumn leaves and seasonal flowers. 4. Directions from Gyoda City Station on the Chichibu Railway ■ Approximately 8 minutes on foot From the south exit, head south on Hachiman Street to reach Gyoda Hachiman Shrine. 5. Directions from Gyoda Station on the Takasaki Line ■ Bus: ¥200, approximately 23 minutes ■ Shared bicycle: approximately 25 minutes ■ Car sharing: approximately 15 minutes While any mode of transportation is fine, I recommend the bus for cheap, car sharing for speed and convenience, and shared bicycles for somewhere in between. (1) Bus Gyoda Station East Exit, bound for Oshi Castle Bus Terminal ↓ Get off at Oshi Castle Bus Terminal Approximately 10 minutes on foot (2) Shared bicycle There's a Wild Knights Cycle Share station right next to the tourist information center at the east exit. The basic fare is ¥88 per 10 minutes. Although it's a little far from Gyoda Station, the route is flat and you'll be riding an electric-assist bicycle, so you'll enjoy a comfortable ride. (3) Car Share There are five Times Car Share stations. The closest station is about a three-minute walk away. 6. Parking Although it is close to the station, there are three parking lots, so you can come by car.

(Translated by Google) This restaurant is located near the bus stop. There were many regular customers inside. The lunch menu was clearly written and explained, so I had a hard time deciding what to order. In the end, I ordered the recommended traditional omelet rice. It was delicious! (Original) バス停のそばにある食堂です 店内は常連のお客さんが多く目につきました ランチメニューも、わかりやすく説明も記載されてて、迷ってしまいました 結論として、イチオシの昔ながらのオムライスをお願いしました。美味しかったです😊

(Translated by Google) A traditional Western restaurant It seems they've served bento boxes in numerous movies and TV dramas. There were so many of them on the walls. Amazing. Well, a man's go-to is omurice! So I ordered the special omurice. It was seriously delicious. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 昔ながらの洋食屋さん 数々の映画やドラマにお弁当をだしたみたいです。 すげーいっぱい壁に貼ってありました。 すご。 さて、漢はオムライス！ なので、スペシャルオムライスしました。 まじうま。 ごちそうさまでした。

(Translated by Google) A long-established Western restaurant located in a shopping arcade. Just the atmosphere and the aroma wafting from the air are enough to get your hopes up to the max! The restaurant is half table seating and half tatami room seating. Just looking at the photos of each menu item will take you back to your childhood, so you might have a hard time choosing one. The menu items are modeled after "tabi" socks, which reflect the location's local love and playfulness. The taste of the Tabi Burger, from the salad dressing to the accompanying spaghetti, is delicious in every detail! It's obvious that it is made with care. The hamburger is small but full of meaty flavor, and is delicious even without any sauce! Try it with two different sauces (demi-glace/Italian) and it's even more delicious. It's been a while since I've come across a restaurant that left me feeling satisfied and full. I'd definitely like to visit again♪ (Original) 商店街に佇む由緒正しき洋食屋さん。 もう雰囲気と漂う薫りだけで期待感MAX！ 店内はテーブル席と座敷が半々。 どのメニューも写真だけで童心に帰れ、本当にメニュー選びに苦労？します。 場所柄"足袋"を模したメニューに、地元愛と遊びごころを感じます。 足袋バーグのお味は、サラダのドレッシングから付け合わせのスパゲティに至るまで、ひとつひとつがきちんと美味しい！の一言。 丁寧に作られているのが一目瞭然。 ハンバーグは小ぶりながら肉感に溢れ、そのままでも美味しい！ ここに二種のソース(デミグラス/イタリアン)で食べ比べると、更に美味しさ倍増。 久々に満足感でお腹いっぱいのお店に出会えました。 是非また訪れたいです♪

(Translated by Google) Even though I grew up in Gyoda, I didn't know it. First visit after being told by a customer. I ordered Neapolitan and special omelet rice, This week's recommended lunch set is also Takana fried rice and spring rolls look delicious, Since it was a special occasion, we ordered 3 meals for the two of us. moreover, I remembered that the green soybean potage was recommended, so I ordered an additional one. The result is wonderfully delicious, This price also includes salad and miso soup. Excellent cost performance these days! ! It seems like this is a restaurant that is loved by regular customers. Repeat is confirmed ♪ (Original) 行田育ちなのに知らずに、 お客様から教えてもらい初訪問。 ナポリタンとスペシャルオムライスを頼み、 今週のオススメランチセットも、 高菜チャーハンと春巻きが美味しそうで、 せっかくだからと2人で3食オーダーしました。 さらに、 青大豆のポタージュがオススメとのことだったのを思い出して追加オーダー。 結果どれも素晴らしい美味しさで、 サラダや味噌汁もついてこの価格は、 いまどきコストパフォーマンス抜群！！ ご常連さんにも愛されるお店のようです。 リピート確定です♪

(Translated by Google) It's a 7-8 minute walk from Gyoda Station on the Chichibu Railway. Miyoshi Restaurant is located in the shopping arcade. They mainly serve Western dishes such as their signature omelet rice, nostalgic Neapolitan, fried shrimp, and hamburger, as well as the first-generation Chinese popular dishes such as fried rice, spring rolls, and katsudon. The lineup is rich in variety, as you would expect from a Western restaurant in town. From the day before visiting Miyoshi until you sit down, you can't decide what to eat. The classic omelet rice topped with ketchup, the special omelet rice with plenty of the chef's proud demi-glace sauce, the plump fried shrimp, and the katsudon made with a special donburi sauce with an exquisite sweet and spicy taste. They're all so delicious that it's cruel to choose just one. And the fried rice is a must-try. The secret taste inherited from the first generation. The aroma of the fried rice is irresistible. My husband and I think it's the best fried rice in Japan. We always take the fried rice out! The green soybean potage made with local ingredients has a gentle taste, and the consommé soup carefully made by the chef is also delicious. Miyoshi is almost always asked to provide location lunches for film and drama shoots in the area. With the taste, volume, and attention to detail that will satisfy everyone, there is no doubt that they are gaining more fans in the film industry. Business hours may change when there are requests for location lunches. We recommend calling before visiting. There are table seats and tatami seats, so even small children can dine with peace of mind. There is also a free private parking lot a little further away. Gyoda, the town of tabi, is full of sights such as Oshi Castle, Mizuki Park, the ancient lotus village, and ancient tombs. Miyoshi is the best choice for lunch when sightseeing! (Original) 秩父鉄道行田市駅から徒歩7、8分。アーケード商店街の中にあるレストラン ミヨシさん。 看板メニューのオムライスや懐かしさを感じるナポリタン、エビフライ、ハンバーグなどの洋食を主に、初代の中華の人気メニュー、炒飯や春巻き、カツ丼も。町の洋食屋さんならではのバラエティに富んだラインナップ。ミヨシさんを訪れる前の日から席に座わるまで、迷いすぎてメニューが決まらない。 ケチャップがかかった王道オムライスと、シェフご自慢のデミグラスソースがたっぷりのスペシャルオムライス、プリプリの大きなエビフライ、甘辛さが絶妙な特製丼タレで作るカツ丼。どれも本当に美味しくて、1つに決めるなんて酷な話なのです。 そして絶対に外せないのが炒飯。初代から受け継いだ秘伝の味。炒めたご飯の香ばしさがたまらない。私たち夫婦は日本一の炒飯だと思います。炒飯は必ずテイクアウト！ 地元の食材を使った青大豆ポタージュも優しい味で美味しいし、シェフが丁寧に作るコンソメスープも唸る味。 近郊で行われる映画やドラマの撮影現場には必ずといっていいほど、ロケ弁協力の依頼があるミヨシさん。誰もが大満足する味とボリュームと細やかな気遣いに、映画界にもファンが増えていること間違いなしでしょう。ロケ弁依頼がある時は営業時間に変動があります。来店前にお電話で確認することをお勧めします。 テーブル席と座敷席があるので小さいお子さん連れでも安心してお食事できます。少し離れた所に無料の専用駐車場も完備。 足袋の街行田は、忍城、水城公園、古代蓮の里、古墳など見所がいっぱい。観光の際のお昼ご飯はミヨシさんイチオシです！

(Translated by Google) The taste was average. The only thing that bothered me was that I don't know if it was the cook or the waiter, but the places where they had touched the plates smelled really sweaty. Please wash your hands frequently. (Original) 味は普通です。 ただ１つ気になったのが、 調理する人か接客の人かはわかりませんが、お皿を触ったであろう箇所が凄く汗臭かったです。 こまめに手洗いをお願い致します。

(Translated by Google) They offer a daily lunch special on weekdays, seasonal menu items, and bento boxes. Their omurice seems to be popular, but their other menu items are also delicious. (Original) 平日は日替わりランチ 季節のメニュー お弁当もやっているお店 オムライスが人気らしいけど、他のメニューも気になるし、美味しい

(Translated by Google) I made a reservation for lunch on a weekday. The portion was quite large and my stomach was very satisfied. I also think that the chef kept an eye on the kitchen to see when the next meal was going to be served, so we were able to eat at a good pace. Recommended for those who want to enjoy a leisurely meal in a calm atmosphere. (Original) 平日のお昼に予約をして伺いました。 量が結構ありお腹は大満足でした。 また、シェフが厨房から目を光らせ次のお食事を出すタイミングを見てくれているおかげで，テンポよく食べられたように思います。 落ち着いた雰囲気でゆっくりお食事をしたい方におすすめです。

(Translated by Google) The restaurant has a bright atmosphere with an open kitchen. I ordered a hamburger steak, which was delicious and not pre-made. The red wine sauce was also excellent. (Original) オープンキッチンで明るい雰囲気のお店です。ハンバーグを注文しましたが、作り置きではない美味しさが伝わってくる一品でした。赤ワインソースも絶品でした。

(Translated by Google) All dishes were very delicious. It felt like it was carefully made. The green pea soup was very delicious. I'm looking forward to trying a different menu next time. (Original) どの料理もとても美味しかったです。 丁寧に作られている感じがしました。 グリーンピースのスープが、すごく美味しかったです。 次の機会にまた違うメニューを食べるのが楽しみです。

(Translated by Google) Although it was a weekday, I made a reservation and went. By the time it was lunch time, the place was full. Table and chairs in a Japanese-style room in a calm room The food was also delicious. (Original) 平日でしたが 予約をして行きました ランチの時間になったら 満席に 和室でテーブルといす 落ち着いたお部屋で お料理も美味しかったです。

(Translated by Google) 2022/04/07 First visit Roast beef set, 2500 yen Roast beef bowl 1600 yen I think it would be better to make a reservation in advance at this very popular restaurant. Both were delicious, but I think it would have been better if the sauce had more saltiness and sourness. Personally, I prefer roast beef bowl. (Original) 2022/04/07　初訪問 ローストビーフセット、2500円 ローストビーフ丼　　　1600円 大人気のお店で事前に予約した方がいいかと思います。どちらも、美味しく頂きました、欲を言えばソースにもっと塩気と酸味があるとより、いいかと思います。自分的にはローストビーフ丼の方が好みです。

(Translated by Google) After looking at the map for three years, I finally made it here. It's so delicious! I regret not coming sooner. (Original) マップ見ながら3年が過ぎ、やっと来れました。なんて美味しいんだろう❗️早く来てれば良かったって後悔するほどです。

(Translated by Google) Although it's called a bistro, it's a restaurant that offers a bit more high-class cuisine than casual food. However, it is not a super high class place that requires a dress code. At first, people ate while sitting on cushions in a tatami-matted room that looked like a Japanese-style banquet hall (I liked that and it was unique). Nowadays, a table is set up in the tatami room, and people can sit on chairs to eat. All of the dishes are carefully prepared and are not at all unpleasant. Although it uses good materials, it is very reasonably priced. The wife is in charge of customer service and wait staff. Comfortable hospitality with always smiling faces I think it's a store that's suitable for a "special day." (Original) ビストロ・・・とはいうものの、カジュアルよりはもう少しランクの高い料理を提供することもできるお店 かといって、ドレスコードを要求するような超高級ではありません 和式の宴会場のような畳貼りの座敷で、はじめは座布団に座って食べるスタイルだった（それがユニークで好きでした） 今は座敷にテーブルセットが組まれ、いすに座って食べるようになっています 料理はどれもきちんと手を加えられていてかつ、全く嫌みがない いい素材を使っているのに、とてもリーズナブルです 接客、給仕は奥さん担当 いつも輝く笑顔でのおもてなしが心地よい ちょっとだけ「特別な日」に利用するのにふさわしい店だと思います

A quaint restaurant with an old private house. The service is also not so friendly, like that of a set menu restaurant. The price of eels seems to be lower than other eel restaurants. The eel was fluffy and grilled, and had no bones. It seems to be a popular restaurant with many customers coming and going.

Overpriced unagi don with average quality eel. This is a very local place and nobody speaks any English.

(Translated by Google) I arrived at noon on a weekday Friday. They open from 11am, and there were about 5 or 6 customers ahead of me. The building is a renovated old house, and the interior is very clean and historic. I went alone, but was shown to a two-person chair and a four-person tatami room. There was also a four-person table available, so I asked, "Is this okay?" but the four-person table was not available. It's a mystery why they were OK with a four-person tatami room but not a table. After receiving the menu, I immediately ordered the "Special Unaju". Tea and a towel were brought out about five minutes later. I'm not sure if it was the restaurant's policy, but the tea was lukewarm. The eel was brought out about 25 minutes after ordering. The eel came apart without much effort when you put your chopsticks through it. The sauce was a little salty. It was just averagely tasty, but I wasn't particularly impressed. To be honest, I think the "Unadonju Jo" would have been fine. The most disappointing thing was that the waiter was unfriendly throughout the meal. Looking at other people's comments, I see similar opinions, so I guess it's always like this. I don't know if they're a long-established restaurant or what, but if they keep resting on their laurels, customers will eventually leave. I probably won't be going there again. (Original) 平日金曜日の正午に到着。 11時から営業しており、先客は5,6人ほど。 建物は古民家をリノベしたような感じで歴史を感じさせる店内は非常にきれいです。 1人で行ったのですが、椅子の2人席と座敷の4人席を案内されました。 テーブルの4人席も空いていたので「ここで良いですか？」と聞いたところテーブル4人席はNGでした。 座敷の4人席はOKなのになぜテーブルはだめなのか謎です。 メニューをいただきすぐに「うな重　特」を注文。 5分ほどしてからお茶とおしぼりが出てきました。 お店の方針なのか分かりませんがお茶はぬる目でした。 注文後約25分で鰻が運ばれてきました。 箸を通せばそれほど力を入れずに鰻がほぐれます。 タレは少ししょっぱめです。 普通に美味い感じで、特に感動はなかったです。 正直「うな重　上」でも良かったかなと。 店員さんの接客が終始愛想無かったのが一番残念でした。 他の方の書き込みを見ても同様の意見が散見されますので、いつもこのような感じなのでしょう。 老舗なのか何なのか知りませんが、胡坐をかいていてはいずれ客は遠のきますね。 もう行くことは無いでしょう。

(Translated by Google) This was my first visit. My favorite eel restaurant closed for an extended period, so I visited this restaurant, which I'd been interested in for a while. It was a weekday lunchtime, and there were about four groups of customers waiting ahead of me. I was seated at a table in about 20 minutes. While the flavor is a matter of personal preference, I found the taste a little on the strong side for me. As others have commented, the grilled eel liver was a little on the soft side and needed a little more cooking. The grilled eel was just right, but the flesh was a little falling apart. The liver soup was delicious. (Personally, the sansho pepper on the table had a weak aroma, which left me unsure about its freshness.) Thank you for the meal. (Original) 初めての訪問です。お気に入りの鰻屋さんが長期休業になってしましましたので、前から気になっていたこちらのお店に初訪問です。平日のランチ時もあり、前待ち客は4組程度、20分ほどでテーブル席へ着座しました。お味の方は其々の好みもありますが当方にはやや濃いめの味かと。他者のコメントにもありましたが肝焼きはやわらかめであり、もう少し火入れが必要かと思いました。鰻の焼きは適度な感じでしたが、やや身崩れがありました。肝吸いは美味しくいただきました。（個人的に卓上の山椒は香りが弱めで鮮度はいかがなものかと）ご馳走様でした。

(Translated by Google) Eel is extremely delicious. The preparation is done with great care, so it is gentle on the elderly. You can also order a large bowl of rice, which is a great thing. ♥️The atmosphere seems to be good, and I feel very satisfied. Free parking is available around the store and in a vacant lot a little further away by the railroad tracks. When it's busy, write your name at the front desk and wait inside or outside. When you are called, sit down. It takes time to bake, so you should arrive with plenty of time. The price is 3,000 yen, 4,000 yen, and 5,000 yen per person. It’s delicious~❣️ (Original) 鰻は物凄く美味しいです。下処理に丁寧さが出ていますので、お年寄りにも優しいです。また、ご飯大盛も頼めるので、嬉しい限りです。♥️雰囲気もよろしいようで、満足感満載ですね。 無料駐車場は店の回りと、線路際の少し離れた空き地にあります。 混んでいる時はフロントに名前を書いて店の中か店の外で待ちます。呼ばれたら着座ですね。 焼くのに時間を要するので、時間的余裕を持って入店すべきです。 お値段はお一人様、3000円4000円特上5000円と言ったところです。旨いですよ～❣️

(Translated by Google) Since it was during Golden Week, I was 15 minutes late for my reservation, but I already couldn't find a seat. It takes about 45 minutes to an hour to prepare the food. You need to wait patiently. The most important part, the eel, is plump and delicious, but the liver is too soft. (Original) GW中だったので予約から15分遅れてしまったが、すでに席は確保ならず。料理配膳までは、45分から1時間ほど。ゆったり待つ必要があります。肝心のうなぎは、ふっくらしていて美味しいですが、肝は柔らかすぎてイマイチ。

(Translated by Google) I had passed by this eel restaurant many times before it was renovated more than 20 years ago, and I was always curious about the line up. Finally, I went in today as soon as it opened. I'm sure each person has their own preferences in terms of how well the eel is grilled, the firmness, the smell, the sweetness and spiciness of the sauce, the amount, etc., but personally, I preferred it to the long-established store in Kawagoe (tare-daku) and the long-established store in Mishima (too fussy about side dishes). When I took advantage of the tatami room, saying, ``Seat as you like...'', the floor was heated, which was a nice touch on a cold day. Another person wrote that the tea was lukewarm, but boiling water is not poured into Sencha to bring out the flavor. It took 35 minutes for the eel ju (special) to be served. My neighbor was grumbling, "It's slow!", but it's normal for long-established stores to wait until they receive an order, so it takes a long time. I can't tell because you can't see the cooking area at our restaurant, but if you're at a proper eel restaurant, you shouldn't have to worry about the time. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 20年以上前のお店改装前から何度も通り過ぎ、いつも並んでいて気になっていた鰻屋さん。 ついに本日、開店すぐに入りました。 うなぎの焼き加減や硬さ、臭み、タレの甘辛や量等など、人それぞれの好みがあると思いますが、私個人的には、川越の老舗(タレだく)、三島の老舗(副菜に凝りすぎ)より、好みでした。 「お好きな席を……」と座敷を利用したら床暖が入っており、花冷え日に嬉しい心遣いです。 他の方の書き込みに「お茶がぬるい」とありましたが、煎茶は旨味を出すため熱湯は注ぎませんよ。 うな重(特)の提供まで35分。 お隣りの方が「遅い！」とブツブツ言っていましたが、昔の老舗は注文受けてから割くので時間が掛かるのが普通。当店は調理場が見えないので判りませんが、ちゃんとした鰻屋なら時間を気にしてはいけませんね。 ご馳走様でした。

(Translated by Google) Have you been going here for about 10 years? I've been eating here since I was in Konosu before I moved. This ramen comes from Omiya Station's Taishoken, which is famous for its seafood-based soup, and comes in small and regular sizes. Char siu eats mostly char siu wontons. I add more soup and keep it piping hot until the end. It's addictive ramen, it's delicious. (Original) 10年くらい通ってる？移転前の鴻巣時代から食べてます。魚介出汁のスープが特徴的な大宮駅の大勝軒の流れを組むラーメンで小サイズで普通サイズになります。もっぱらチャーシューがチャーシューワンタンを食べます。スープ増しにして最後まで熱々にして食べてます。癖になるラーメンです、美味しい。

(Translated by Google) I had the wonton noodles. The smooth wontons were a perfect match for the clear dried sardine soup. The skin was thin and smooth, and the filling was juicy and delicious! The addition of wontons to the simple ramen made it satisfying, and I enjoyed it until the very end. The restaurant had a relaxed, single-family home-style atmosphere. There were many customers with children, giving it a homey feel. (Original) ワンタンめんをいただきました。 透明感のある煮干しスープに、ツルッとしたワンタンがよく合います。皮が薄くてなめらか、餡もジューシーで美味しい！ シンプルなラーメンにワンタンが加わることで食べごたえがあり、最後まで飽きずに楽しめました。 お店は一軒家風で落ち着いた雰囲気。子連れのお客さんも多く、アットホームな印象でした。

(Translated by Google) Today, I went to eat ramen with my daughter. As mentioned in the reviews, they have two commercial-grade fans powered by solar panels, so we felt like we had more time than at Dreamland. It was mid-afternoon, so I thought it might be crowded, but we were able to park smoothly and get through the first hurdle!! There were only three other groups, so the wait was about 10 minutes. My daughter ordered a medium ramen without green onions. I ordered a large wonton ramen, thinking I could handle it. The impact when the bowl arrived was amazing. The noodles jutted out of the soup like a mountain!! It took some ingenuity to eat it, but it was delicious. Then the fight began. My daughter said, I can't finish it, so please eat it. Then Dad's fight started, playing along with the Rocky theme, and we finished it all! I recommend the small size for women. The medium size is probably easier for men as well. Fat Man continues to eat hungrily even when it's hot and his mouth is burned, so large is good. Of course, I want to live my life eating large. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 本日は娘とラーメン食べにお邪魔しました。 レビューにあった暑さ対策ですが、ソーラーパネル活用の外部電源使った業務用扇風機2台稼働してるので夢の国の待ち時間より余裕を感じました。 昼過ぎだったので混んでるかなぁ〜と思いましたが駐車場にスムーズに停められたので第一関門突破！！ 待ち時間は3組しか居なかったので10分程度でした。 娘はラーメン中をネギ抜きで頼み ワシはいけるかと思ってワンタンメンの大を頼みました。 着丼時のインパクト 麺が汁から山の様に飛び出している！！ 食べ方に工夫を要しましたが美味しく頂けました。 そこからの戦いが 娘が ちょっと食べきれないから食べてと 父の闘いがロッキーのテーマと共に始まり完食！！ お勧めは女性は小ですね。 男性も中のが食べやすいかな。 熱くても口の中に火傷してもモリモリ食べ進むファットマンは大が良き。 もちろん私は生涯大で生きたいと思いました。 ご馳走様です。

(Translated by Google) 2025/08 I ordered the large ramen (1,050 yen). It's a dried fish-based ramen with the best taste and value for money around here! The large size is enough for three bowls, so it's quite impressive lol. These are Okamoto Seimen's thin noodles, which are easy to eat and great. Because they're thin, they tend to get soggy, so if you're a big eater or have a sensitive tongue, a firmer noodle might be a good choice. Or, it's great to use a hand fan to cool the noodles and soup while you're eating! The restrooms are clean, but I wish there were hand towels at the sink. 2025/06 I ordered the large ramen (1,050 yen). The soup was truly exquisite! It was a refreshing dried fish-based ramen, but had a strong flavor and was incredibly delicious. It came with one slice of char siu, one rare piece of nori seaweed, naruto, and bamboo shoots. The noodles were thin and curly, making them easy to eat, and the soup clung to them well. The portion was about three bowls, so I was very satisfied! But be careful, if you order a large serving, the noodles will get soggy if you don't eat them quickly lol (Original) 2025/08 ラーメン 大(1050円)を注文。 節系でこの辺りでは味もコスパも最強！ 大サイズは3玉分なのでインパクトも凄いw 岡本製麺の細麺？で食べやすくて良し。 細麺なので伸びやすいので、量を食べる人or猫舌な人は麺硬めが良い感じかも、それかﾊﾝﾃﾞｨﾌｧﾝで麺とスープを冷しながら食べる時良い感じ！ トイレは綺麗だけどて手洗い場に手拭きは欲しかった。 2025/06 ラーメン 大(1050円)を注文。 スープは確かに極上でした！ さっぱり節系ですが味は強く、凄く美味しかった、ﾁｬｰｼｭｰ1枚＋あまり見ない海苔1枚＋ナルト＋メンマ乗ってました。 麺はちぢれ細麺で食べやすくて、スープも絡みやすくて良かった、量も3玉分くらい有り大満足！ ただ大盛は早く食べないと麺が伸びてくるので注意w

(Translated by Google) First visit on September 3, 2025. I arrived before 12 o'clock and many people were already eating, but I was able to get a seat without waiting. I ordered the wonton noodles, which were recommended on the vending machine, for 1,000 yen. The curly noodles in a seafood-based soup were similar to the taste I had eaten somewhere before. It was similar to Takayama ramen. The noodles and soup were delicious, but there was nothing that really stood out. The toppings, such as bamboo shoots, pork slices, and wontons, all tasted quite ordinary. The medium size comes with 1.5 servings of noodles, but I got tired of them halfway through eating them and thought a small size would have been better. (Original) 2025/9/3に初訪問。12時前に到着し、既に沢山の人が食事中でしたが、待たずに着席出来ました。注文は自販機におすすめとあったワンタン麺の中、１０００円。 魚介系のスープに縮れ麺、どこかで食べた味に似ている。高山ラーメンに近い。麺もスープも美味しいが、美味しいだけ心に刺さる物が無かった。トッピングのメンマ、チャーシュー、ワンタンなどなど、いたって普通の味。中だと麺の量は1.5玉だが、食べている途中で飽きてしまい、小でよかったかなと思った。

(Translated by Google) This was my third visit. Perhaps because it was after 1 PM on a weekday, I was able to enter without waiting. (Even on weekdays, there can be a long wait depending on the time of day.) Ordering was done from the vending machine. Consistently delicious as always♪ I love this flavor. (Original) 3度目の来店でした。 平日13時過ぎだったせいか、待ち時間なしで入店できました。 (平日でも時間でかなり待つ時もあります) オーダー方法が自販機になってました。 いつもながらの安定の美味しさ♪ 大好きな味です。

(Translated by Google) When I ate it, I chose regular ramen. This was my favorite seafood ramen shop among Bushi restaurants. I often stopped by when going to Gyoda. Ramen shop Yoshikawa in Ageo is famous for seafood, but the dried sardines are processed better than there, and there was no odor at all. The bowl of ramen was quite large, the amount was large, and the ramen was very satisfying. I think it would be better if there was a little extra effort to make the char siu, and the eggs were boiled, but personally, considering the cost performance, I was very satisfied. (Original) 食べた際は通常のラーメンを選択。ブシ系のお店では1番好きな魚介系ラーメン屋さんでした。行田方面に行く際はよく立ち寄っておりました。 魚介系では上尾にあるラーメン屋よしかわが有名ですが、そこよりも煮干しの処理がしっかりされており、臭みが全くなかったです。 ラーメンの器がかなり大きくて量も多く満足度は高いラーメンでした。チャーシューに一手間加えたチャーシューや、卵も煮卵とかあると尚いいかなと思いますが個人的にはコスパを考えると大満足でした。

Beautiful shibazakura can be viewed. There were also some food stores to enjoy the local delicacy ( strawberry) and the flowers. The parking fee and entrance fee was separate.

This is a vast park. I originally just wanted to come here for an early morning run, but since the park is on a slope (or hill), I changed my mind and decided to take a walk instead. It has large lawns and walking trails (or paths), and it's quite interesting because you can even spot some animals here.

Hitsujiyama Park, Chichibu, is known for its attractive moss-pink field. Open hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the festival from mid-April to early May. The ticket price was just 300 yen per adult, and it’s really worth it. The ticket counter staff and other staff were really kind and friendly. The park is well maintained, and they have some beautiful flower decorations too. They had 10 types of flowers there, and those flowers are lovely and take away all stress. This hillside park is pretty crowded during festival season, but you can still enjoy it. You can enjoy a variety of foods from stoles in addition to the moss pink yard.There are plenty of food styles, which include Japanese traditional cuisine. The food was really yummy, and the vendors were really nice. When you go a few steps further, you can see a few sheep on their small farm. Sometimes we can’t actually watch sheep at the zoo, so I feel so happy. However, take my advice: if you go during peak season, please be ready to walk, or else you can get on a taxi too. I walked from Chchibu station to Hitsujiyama Park, and it took me 20 minutes, but it was a nice experience. This gorgeous park gives you fresh air to breathe. It was worth visiting this garden again, and I hope to go there next year too.

a lovely park, less crowded, with a lot of cherry blossom trees outside the park. there are snacks and souvenirs shops outside the park too.

Beautiful flowers and scenery with some sheeps and area for nice walkong. Entrance fee was 300 yen. With 500 yen parking

What a great place for hiking . Will see the panoramic view of the whole city of chichibu by walking minutes from chichibu station you will enjoy by walking or car even biking highly recomended

On April 20, 2021 the flowers are about 85% blooming. This park is not that big as my expectation, but nice to come here during shibazakura season. I've enjoyed it so much! Entrance fee is ¥300.

This temple is a sacred place in the Chichibu trilogy of animated films, ``Kokoro ga Shiroitatteru da'' and appears frequently in the films. For this reason, there are exchange notes for fans who come on pilgrimages to holy places, and there are also a wide variety of collaboration gifts. After receiving the Goshuin stamp, I drew a Kokosake Tamago lottery ticket with an illustration of the order. I'm happy with Daikichi. The lottery also includes a keychain, so it's recommended for fans.

It's about 20 minutes from the north exit of Yokoze Station, looking out over the countryside. It's the setting for the anime film "The Anthem of the Heart," and has become a mecca for anime fans. At the entrance to the main hall, there is an "Obinzuru-sama (a stroking Buddha)," and it is said that if you alternate between stroking your own bad points and Obinzuru-sama, you will be able to take over the course of your illness.

(Translated by Google) I visited here on the third day of my pilgrimage on foot to the 34 temples of Chichibu. It is a sacred place featured in the anime movie "The Anthem of the Heart."

There were other attractions in the precincts, including the vicarious Binzuru statue (which I saw for the first time).

Easy access. Helpful staff. Peaceful and beautiful large park. I have been here on the last day of illumination autumn maple trees. Simple but Nice lighting.not too crowded.

This is a huge park perfect for elementary kids. You can easily spend half a day inside. They have different playground facilities that are well mentained. We entered from the South gate, rented bicycles, then went to the West side of the park. We only had time to play around Kids Dome, Water park, and Wood obstacle course. Kids had a blast. 700 yen for parking. 600 yen for 3H adult bicycle 450 yen for entrance for adults (elementary and younger are free)

The park is huge and not possible to see every corner of it on foot, but there are some main areas that visitors can visit easily thanks to the signboards. The car park might be trouble on a busy day but driving is still the best way to reach out to the park.

Very beautiful scenery. Easy to find the parking. Btw, this poor Anpanman was left here. Did someone's child forget him? 🤔🥺

Beautifully-landscaped park. Gardens with sculptures, pond, gurgling creek, open fields, bike route, paved and unpaved strolling paths. Small enough park to walk all over, perfect for spending half a day or so. Nice place for family, friends, couple, pets for relaxing & enjoying nature. Would like to come back for evening lighting for garden/sculpture viewing. If you feel more active, bike rental available, 450 yen for 3 hours. Lots of short stretches of moderate rolling hills on winding, paved route. Fairly small park but the bike route feels wild with nature. Plenty vending machines, bathrooms, cafes, and a few food trucks. Fair parking, 650 yen, entire day. Takes credit/debit card, but some spots cash only.

This place is so good! I recommend to rent a bike here. We can ride around the park, since the park is huge. I went to this park in spring. There are three type of flowers; lupine, nemophila and poppy. The entrance fee is ¥450 and rent a bike is around ¥400/ 3 hours. I really like this place!

If you're going here I recommend buying the Set Tickets from Tobu. It's available in the eMot app and you can use it from Ikebukuro. It's a set of Roundtrip Train Tickets, Bus Tickets to the park and also the Entrance Fee. Total of around 1700yen. The whole park was big so need a comfortable shoes to roam around the park. They have different Flower Gardens depends on the Season. Went during May this are the flowers there.

Great historical place must visit one in Ibaraki area

You can see live actors dressed in traditional Japanese outfits and see how tabi was made in Guoda.

Sightseeing is exceptional.

Very attractive place.

Amazing

(Translated by Google) I visited the Gyoda City Local History Museum. The museum introduces the history of Gyoda City chronologically, allowing visitors to systematically learn about the region's development. Modern exhibits highlight Gyoda's development as "the town of tabi" and explain the background behind the spread of Gyoda tabi throughout the country. There was also an exhibit on the Saitama Kofun Group, a national special historic site, where visitors could learn about the culture of the Kofun period and the role of the region. During my visit, a special exhibition, "Gyoda during Wartime," was being held, and I was deeply impressed by the materials conveying life and living conditions during the war. Through the displays of everyday items and the changes in industry at the time, I was able to see how the region overcame the times. My wife and daughter also took the "Gyoda Tabi Quiz," which was a fun quiz-style experience, further deepening my understanding of the region's history. Furthermore, visitors can climb the tower of the neighboring Oshi Castle, offering a panoramic view of the castle town. This museum is perfect for combining sightseeing with learning. (Original) 行田市郷土博物館を訪問しました。館内は行田市の歴史を時代順に紹介しており、地域の歩みを体系的に学べる施設です。近代の展示では「足袋の町 行田」としての発展が取り上げられ、行田足袋が全国に広まった背景を理解できます。さらに、国の特別史跡である埼玉古墳群の展示もあり、古墳時代の文化や地域の役割について学ぶことができました。訪問時には特別企画として「戦時下の行田展」が開催されており、戦時下の暮らしや人々の生活状況を伝える資料が強く印象に残りました。生活用品や当時の産業の変化などを通して、地域がどのように時代を乗り越えてきたのかを感じられる内容でした。また、妻と娘は「行田足袋検定」に挑戦し、クイズ形式で楽しみながら地域の歴史に親しんでいました。さらに、隣接する忍城のやぐらに登ることもでき、城下を一望できる体験も魅力のひとつです。観光と学習を兼ねて訪れるのに適した博物館です。

(Translated by Google) The admission fee of 200 yen for adults is quite reasonable. You can also learn about the history of Gyoda. Gyoda is famous for its tabi socks, and I was surprised at how big the tabi socks worn by sumo wrestlers are. Apparently, there used to be many tabi shops here. Please be careful as there are some works where photography is prohibited and some where it is OK. (Original) 入館料が大人200円はお安いです。 行田の町の歴史も学ぶことができます。 行田は足袋が有名で お相撲さんたちの足袋の大きさにびっくりしました。 昔は沢山の足袋の店があったそうですよ。 撮影禁止の作品と撮影O.K.のがあるので気をつけましょう。

Picturesque and historical setting with beautiful landscaping and architecture including bridges and koi fish

The castle is only three floors and the view is limited. The museum is the main attraction and it’s bigger. The gardens are cute. The words are all in japanese, but is possible to have an audio guide in english (500¥ as a deposit) Entrance fee: 200¥

Another little treasure in Saitama. Not all of the complex is original and most has been rebuilt. The grounds are well kept with many sitting areas to enjoy the views. To enjoy the castle grounds is free but the on site museum building costs ¥200 to enter.

This is a castle located in Gyoda, made famous by the drama 'Rikuoh.' While the castle itself is small, visiting the museum where you can learn about the local history, and then seeing the castle, I believe provides a deeply enriching experience.

It was closed when I arrived, so couldn't go inside. Finally can only see from the outside. This castle was built on a very large land. The Castle building is still there, standing strong and strong.

Came here for the Sengoku history, very nice area.

Oshi Castle Note: parking available The castle grounds and the surrounding areas are free to tour and walk around. They are well kept, have some aesthetic areas for photos and some seating areas to enjoy the peaceful nature of this place. Dogs are also welcomed. Attached to the main castle grounds area is a museum but that does have an entry fee and as I am not wanting to spend much I chose not to go. Overall the place is well preserved but quick to tour if not going to the museum. You can walk around the property in about 10 minutes I would assume the museum adds some time to it.

(Translated by Google) I had jelly fries and Gyoda fries (soy sauce flavor). The taste brought back memories. The Gyoda fries were surprisingly delicious. I arrived before opening time, and was impressed to see that even the benches on the outdoor terrace had been carefully wiped clean. I was very satisfied to be able to enjoy my meal at a table in the tower-like building, taking in the restaurant's ambiance. (Original) ゼリーフライと行田フライ(しょうゆ味)いただきました。 懐かしさを感じる味でした。 行田フライがビックリするほど美味しかったです。 開店前に店に到着しましたが、外のテラス席のベンチまで丁寧に拭き掃除していて素晴らしいと思いました。 櫓のような建物にあるテーブル席で店の雰囲気と共に味わうことができて大満足です。

(Translated by Google) I stopped in because I wanted fries. It was around 3 PM on a Sunday, but customers kept coming in. (Many were ordering takeout.) I ordered a small serving of fries with egg and one serving of jelly fries (two pieces). I'd rarely eaten fries outside of Iwase in Kumagaya, but the texture was a little different from Iwase's. (Iwase's are sprinkled with something like tempura flakes, giving them a slightly crunchy texture.) Even the small fries were just over 20cm in diameter and very satisfying. I could really taste the egg, and they paired well with the sauce. It was my first time trying jelly fries. The simple taste evoked a nostalgic feeling. At 220 yen for two, they were very affordable. I'd definitely like to stop by again. (Original) フライが食べたくて立ち寄りました。 日曜日の15時前あたりでしたが、お客さんは続々と来ます。（持ち帰りのお客さんが多かったです） 注文は卵入りフライ（小）とゼリーフライ1人前（2個）にしました フライは熊谷の「いわ瀬」以外ではほとんど食べたことがありませんでしたが、いわ瀬さんとは食感が少し違いました。（いわ瀬さんは天かすのような物がまぶしてあって少しカリカリ感があります） フライは小でも直径20cmちょいあり食べ応えがあります。卵の風味が感じられソースとの相性も良かったです。 ゼリーフライは初めて食べました。 素朴な味でどこか懐かしさを感じます。 2個で220円ととても安いですね。 また機会があれば立ち寄りたいお店です。

(Translated by Google) I was in the Gyoda area, so I stopped by this restaurant for the first time in a while! This is a place where you can eat Gyoda City's local delicacies, jelly fries and Gyoda yakisoba! I arrived shortly after they opened, so the parking lot and the restaurant were empty! First, order and pay at the same time! I ordered one serving of jelly fries (2 pieces) and a large portion of fried yakisoba with an egg! The bowls arrived in just over 5 minutes! The jelly fries are like croquettes made with soy pulp and potatoes! They're deep-fried, but surprisingly light! Delicious! The yakisoba is made almost entirely of noodles, wrapped in a thin, fried flour batter! It's like okonomiyaki! Some people will love it, but I personally love it! I feel the noodles are a little on the bland side, though! Maybe they could be a little stronger! Thanks for the meal! (Original) 行田方面へ行ったので、久しぶりにこちらのお店へ！ 行田市のご当地グルメ、ゼリーフライと行田焼きそばが食べられるお店！ OPEN少しして行ったので駐車場も店内も空いてました！ まずは注文と同時にお支払い！ ゼリーフライ1人前(2個入り)とフライ焼きそば卵入り大盛りを注文！ ５分少々で着丼！ ゼリーフライは、おからとじゃがいものコロッケみたいなもの！ 揚げてあるけど案外あっさり！美味い！ 焼きそばはほぼ麺のみの焼きそばに小麦粉で薄く焼いたような生地で包まれてます！お好み焼きみたい！ 好き嫌いは別れそうですが自分的には好きな味です！ちょっと麺が薄味な気がしますが！もう少し濃くても良いかも！ ご馳走様でした！

(Translated by Google) It was my first time eating it, but it tasted nostalgic. The staff explained it to me in detail. The interior of the restaurant also had a nice retro feel to it. I was introduced to this restaurant by the tourist information center. I ordered fries and jelly fries, a specialty of Gyoda. I arrived in about 10 minutes. It was a quiet time and we were the only ones in the restaurant, so the wife of the owner explained the fries and jelly fries to me in detail. It seems that Sakana-kun is a big fan of fries, and he likes them so much that he ate five by himself and has come here many times. The fries were a thin egg omelet similar to okonomiyaki. The sauce was fragrant and the dough was light, so it was easy to eat. The jelly fries were similar to soy pulp croquettes. They were freshly fried and piping hot, and the sauce was delicious. It's a little far from the station, but I'd definitely like to visit again when I come to Gyoda. (Original) 初めて食べたが、懐かしい味がする。 お店の方が丁寧な説明をしてくれた。 店内もレトロな感じがして良かった。 観光案内所の方に紹介されて来店。 行田名物のフライとゼリーフライを注文。 10分ほどで到着。 ちょうど空いている時間帯で 店内は私達だけだったので、 お店の奥さんが丁寧に フライとゼリーフライの説明をしてくれた。 どうやらさかなクンが フライの大ファンらしく ひとりで５枚食べるほどのお気に入りで 何度も訪れているとのこと。 フライは 薄いお好み焼きのような玉子焼き。 ソースが香ばしく 生地も軽いのでぺろっといけてしまう。 ゼリーフライは おからコロッケに近い。 揚げたてアツアツで ソースがとてもおいしい。 駅からは少し距離はあるが、 行田に来た際にはぜひまた訪れたい。

(Translated by Google) This shop is located less than a five-minute walk from Oshi Castle. They also serve Saitama's specialty jelly fries, so it's worth trying that as well. It was very hot that day, so I also ordered shaved ice with brown sugar syrup. Hot jelly fries and shaved ice in an air-conditioned room. Perfect for a hot summer day! The previous customers were a group of older women who seemed to be locals. Later, a group of older men who also seemed to be locals joined us. Jelly fries are often featured on TV and such, so I thought there would be a lot of tourists, but I thought it was a nice shop loved by locals. (Original) 忍城から徒歩5分もしない距離にあるお店。 埼玉名物ゼリーフライもあるので セットで行ってみてほしいところ。 この日はとても暑かったので 黒蜜がかかったかき氷もオーダー。 クーラーが効いた部屋で熱々のゼリーフライと、かき氷。 暑い夏の日に最高！ 先客は地元の方と思われるおばさまグループ。 あとから、これまた地元の方と思われるおじさまグループ。 ゼリーフライがテレビなとでよく出てくるので、観光客が多いのかと思っていたけど、 地元の人達から愛される良いお店だと思った。

(Translated by Google) I ate jelly fries and fried noodles. I ate them because they were local gourmet foods, but neither of them were to my taste, so I couldn't really appreciate them. In particular, the fried yakisoba had so little yakisoba that it was difficult to finish the fried noodles. I wish the ratio of yakisoba would have been increased a little more. Also, when I ate inside the restaurant, I felt that if I was seated immediately after entering, the smell would stick to my clothes. (Original) ゼリーフライとフライ焼きそば食べました。 ご当地グルメということで食べましたが、どちらも私の好みでは無かったので、あまり美味しさが分かりませんでした。 特に、フライ焼きそばは、焼きそばが少なすぎて、フライを食べ切るのが大変でした。もうちょっと焼きそばの比率を上げてほしかった。 あと、店内でお食事する場合、入ってすぐの座席だとにおいが服に付いてしまいそうな気がしました。

(Translated by Google) I visited for the first time because I wanted to eat jelly fries. There seems to be a parking lot for about 3 cars and a parking lot a little further away. The atmosphere of the shop was reminiscent of the Showa era. The staff at the restaurant were kind and the jelly fries I ate for the first time were very delicious. I thought that jelly fries were fried jelly, but since the shape is similar to the old koban, there seems to be a strong theory that jelly fries became jelly fries. , (Original) ゼリーフライを食べたくて初めて訪問しました。駐車場は3台程度と少し離れた場所にも駐車場があるようです。お店の雰囲気は昭和そのものでした。お店の方も優しく初めて食べたゼリーフライはとても美味しかったです。ゼリーフライってゼリーをフライにしているのかと思ってましたが昔の小判に形が似ているのでゼニフライ→ゼリーフライになったという説が濃厚らしいです。、
