It is a place where you can feel the history of Japan. There are exhibits of their achievements and their wills, etc. that make us acutely aware of their feelings for their loved ones. Thanks to them, Okinawa and Japan exist today. When I saw the video about them, I could not stop crying. I think it is important for Japanese people to learn from them so that we will never repeat the same mistakes again. It is also most important to pass on such feelings to the new generation.

It's a small village that has been kept as intact as possible. You're able to go and view some houses and see the streets and wander through them. Be warned if you go anywhere summer up until September and you come from a cold country- it's suuuuuuper hot

Its roadside station and nice place for take a break and have lunch. The set meal are good.

When I arrived there, it was at 3:30pm and the museum closes at 5:00pm. I was thinking it would be enough but not. As you know, the theme was to heavy and after observing the museum, I was really depressed but it was great to visit. Really. The Kamikaze pilots were in their 10s and 20s. Their smiles were very innocent in their pictures. I don't know they were brain washed or not but of course they couldn't show their true negative feelings in their letters because the letters were censored. A word "Mother" was repeated many many times in their letters. After leaving the museum, I saw some highschool students on the street. Same age group as the young pilots. I didn't want to think if the young students would be sent to a battlefield. Young people are at the mercy of older people's political decisions. Always. Not only the wartime but also now.

Beautiful view. Cute design and calm environment. Locals come regularly also. Drive was excruciatingly long because the view along the way was majorly farmlands or small village houses. Nothing is opened on weekdays, the drive was not so smooth because of commercial/ construction trucks. I recommend using the Ibusuki skyline (100yen) if you’re driving a nice car.

Just what we were looking for: great ramen, laid back local place.

(Translated by Google) It was a wonderful, historic restaurant. Thank you for the meal! ◾️Thoughts💁 I've always wanted to visit Chiran. I decided to have lunch here before going to the Chiran Peace Museum. This restaurant has a deep connection to the kamikaze pilots. It continues the tradition of Tome-san, known as the "mother of the kamikaze pilots." I wondered how Tome-san's passion has been passed down from wartime to the present-day Reiwa era, how many pilots went to battle from this place, and what kind of feelings they had when they came to eat here? Were they not afraid of death? Learning about this restaurant's history got me thinking about all sorts of things while I was eating. It must have been a place of relaxation where people could unwind from the stresses of everyday life. It was a wonderful experience to have the chance to stop by such a wonderful, historic restaurant. The soba noodles and black pork cutlet I had for dinner were both filling and delicious. With the continued rise in prices of various ingredients, I'm sure it's very difficult to maintain your restaurant and prices, but I would like to come back to eat the same meal here again, so I will continue to support you. Thank you for the meal! ⚠️Notes ▪️Ordered Dishes ・Black Pork Tonkatsu Set Meal ¥1,500 --------------------------------- 📍 Tokkou Auntie's Chiran Chaya Address: 17856, Chiran-cho, Minamikyushu City, Kagoshima Prefecture Access: Approximately 1 minute walk from the Tokkou Heiwa Park bus stop Closed: Irregularly Approximately ¥2,000 per person [Leave a comment if you're hungry] If you like this, don't forget to [Follow] and [Save]! (Original) 歴史ある素敵なお店でした、ご馳走様でした！ ◾️感想💁 ずっと行きたかった知覧へ 知覧特攻平和館へ行く前にお昼を食べて行くことに。特攻隊とも関係性が深いお店。 特攻の母と呼ばれたトメさんの味を引き継いだお店。戦時中から今の令和までトメさんの思いのバトンが繋がっている事、この地から何人もの特攻隊員が戦いに行った事、犠牲になった事、どんな心境でこのお店に特攻隊員が食べに来ていたのか？死に対して怖さはなかったのか。そんな歴史の背景があるお店と知りいろんなことを食事中も考えさせられました。 きっと日々の緊張をほぐせる憩いの場だったのでしょう。 偶然にもそんな歴史ある素敵なお店に立ち寄ることができてとても良い経験ができました。 お食事の蕎麦と黒豚とんかつ、ボリューム満点で美味しかったです。食材が様々値上がりする状況が続き、お店や値段の維持もとても大変だと思いますが、この地でまた同じご飯を食べに来たいと思いますのでこれからも応援しています。 ご馳走様でした！ ⚠️注意点 ▪️注文の料理 ・黒豚とんかつ御膳　¥1,500 ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー 📍 特攻おばさんの店 知覧茶屋 住所: 鹿児島県南九州市知覧町郡17856 アクセス: 特攻平和公園バス停から徒歩約1分 定休日:不定休 1人あたり2,000円ほど 【お腹が空いたらコメントしてね】 気になったら【フォロー】【保存】を忘れずに！

Authentic meal provided in a Japanese farm house. The rice is grown by the restaurant and they provide super traditional recipe washoku. Their Tonkotsu (braised pork dish with the same name as ramen) teishoku is super delicious and Soba was very nice too.

There is a drink buffet here. U can drink till ur stomach is full with water
