Road station?

At the restaurant, you can taste local dishes such as pork cutlets, hand-made soba noodles, and locally made natural dishes from Ibaraki prefecture's famous pork, and the produce directly at the produce shop is equipped with fresh vegetables and flowers from the region, as well as the meat of rose pork designated by the prefecture. In addition, the fast food corner where you can enjoy hand-made manju and gelato is popular, and the original Rose Pork Man (meat man) and Rose Pork Shumai from the roadside station are very well received.

Kewpie Goka Factory

You can tour the filling process of mayonnaise and dressing. There are few facilities where you can tour the explanation of raw materials and the production process, so I would like to go there by all means. One of the highlights is a breaking machine that breaks 600 eggs per minute. One eye is drawn to the way one egg is broken and divided into yolks, whites and shells. Mayo's footage appreciation, too. Travel time is about 1 hour and 10 minutes (reservations required).

Hongkei Temple

The year of Oei 21 (1414) is a famous temple of the Jodo sect, reportedly as the Genjon. A great deal of donation was made by the Tokugawa family to rebuild the main hall and bell tower (currently under reconstruction facilities and cannot be seen), from where they were deeply devoted to the tenth-generation Ryokujinjin, and established it as a bodhi-ji temple. The main hall, which is the best of the temple architecture of the early Edo period, is renovated in 2007. You can feel the power of the Tokugawa shogunate in the Buddhist tools and furnishings. On the left side of the main hall is the tomb of Chihime.

Shomei Temple

A temple of the Jōdo Shinshu Hongan-ji school. The first generation of the Seiki family, Asamitsu, who also participated in the shogunate as a sensei crowd, invited the younger brother of the clan, Shinbutsu, to open. It is said that the name of the temple, the name of the temple, is derived from the name of the law that Asamitsu came to the house and gave it to him. It holds a number of cultural treasures, including the "Shōjo Kanashu", which is said to be the autograph of Kinji, as well as portraits and wooden statues of the morning light, the Mireya Gate, and the Nijomon. At the back of the precinct, where there is a large ginkgo tree and a bronze statue of the saint, there are tombs ranging from the first morning light to the fourth generation Tokihiro.

Private Gardens

An ancillary facility of the Kasumigaura City History Museum, which was a relocation of a wealthy local farmhouse from the Edo period, consisting of two buildings: a thatched main building and Itakura, which used to be a grain warehouse.
