With love in 100 yen

Climbing summer of Mt. Fuji will begin from this weekend. It will be a lot of visitors from home and abroad this year.
Well, there is a charge for the rest room in Mt. Fuji. Because Mt. Fuji has no water supply. Water used in toilets and shops is transported from the foot by a water supply car.
Mr. Fuji Mihara "seems to buy water on a regular basis and stock it in the floor storage cabinet. I got the floor under the shop where the souvenirs line up to be shown.



It is hard to understand in the photograph, but if you put your hands in, it is till the water touches.
For Mt. Fuji, water is truly valuable. So the toilet was a foam washing type to conserve water.



Originally, Mt. Fuji may be a sacred place that you should not stepping on and stepping on with the foot of a person. In order to convey beautiful Mt. Fuji to the future generations, we want to do as much as we can.
With such thought, I have also placed 100 yen. Fuji is a form of small love.

Wasteful beauty

Have you ever seen a grape flower? This is it. It is in full bloom now. It is very plain, is not it? I can not find anything like a petal.
Grapes are pollinators, we pollinate by themselves without the help of insects such as bees and butterflies. So do not you need captivating petals? Do not you think that it is dignified and full of functional beauty like a self-sustaining career woman somehow.
The grapes are now the season of flowering. In "Irish gardens" at Ichinomiya, they are in bloom one after another in the same order as the order of harvest.



And young leaves of grapes of this season are delicious if it is tempura. Is it a bitter taste and taste of adults? Of course, it is quite delicious to be eaten even locally as it is only young leaves that are not disinfecting. If you have a chance, please try it.

Mystery of cute limited item

The word of limitation is really attractive. Even if it is told that it is limited period, quantity limitation, local restrictions, I will want it.
"Wine of cherries" which "Shirayuri brewing" came out this year also. It is a pretty cute cherry wine. Two cherries are confined in the bottle of rose wine.



Cherry to dance in the bottle every time it pours. I want to eat it when I finish drinking, how do I get it? How did you put a cherry larger than the mouth of the bottle in the first place? I asked the shop staff, but I was not able to tell you about it as a trade secret. Including such a simple question, it is a confined limited item that you will be pleased with souvenirs and gifts.



A synonymous cherry in June of Yuri in Fleur Kingdom. Cherry blossom farms in all areas of the prefecture are crowded with visitors from the Tokyo metropolitan area every day.

Local idols

I remembered the Andersen fairy tale that the son of an awkward duck was a child of a swan. The swan chicks had such a grayish color.
Actually, Hina was born last month at Cobb Swan in the moat of Takeda Shrine. This is the first time in 50 years. Is it a mother who is watching a swim chick? It is a very smart sight.



I put bread 's ear in a basket. Countermeasures to prevent the koi that are many in the moat from being snatched for food. There was one barely inside the basket. It's all you can eat.



It seems that 5 births were actually born. It seems that three birds have become unnoticed, and it is hard to survive though it is inside the moat where people's eyes can reach.
The building that you can see in the back of the photo is Kofu Municipal Aikawa Elementary School. On the weekday, the fifth grade of this elementary school is feeding. Currently, this Hina - chan is an idol of Takeda Shrine. Everyone in the town wishes to grow up safely and safely.

I will not say sorry anymore

Have you eaten at a sightseeing spot and thought "Well, I can not help it?" It's not tasty and expensive. Still it can not be helped because it is a sightseeing spot. If you come to Shosenkyo, I will not let such a thought. "Sugarahara" near Nagaobashi is a buckwheat store where local people also go.
Not to mention the hands, in the shop from where the soba is pulled from the stone mill. You can enjoy the taste of real buckwheat.



The most popular is Tenro Iro 1600 yen. It is good for cold noodles and soba noodles of 1200 yen in the coming season.



Then this is boiled bonito of Kofu specialty 800 yen. It is soul food of Yamanashi who became famous in the B-1 Grand Prix. Sweet and savory. In Kofu say this is the soba noodle. Please try it once.




"Sugaharaya" is in front of Tenjinmori bus stop. There is also a terrace seat where the babbling sound is cool.

Queen's garden

Come on, the season of roses! There are 250 kinds of roses blooming also in the rose garden of "herb garden travel diary". Even looking at the right and looking at the left it is a rose flower. As for the elegant flower and the noble scent, after all I think that the rose is Queen of a hundred flowers.
Because there are many rare varieties, I think that people who are familiar with roses have a glance and if they do not usually have a rim in usual, if you just enjoy getting enthusiastic, it is correct.
Anyway I want to tell you the beauty, so I will post a lot of pictures this time.

















You can enjoy "rose of herb garden travel diary" all the way in June. Entry free.

Grain richness, ten grains Fertile rich

Recently, even at family restaurants, you can choose white rice and millet rice, right? Millet or millet that was eaten as a substitute for rice in the past when Japan was poor. It is said that these millets are nutrients tend to be short for modern people, and it is established as a new food culture.
We will introduce the series "Shingen Ten Nurseries" developed to deliciously eat nutritious grains. Ten types of cereals used are germ barley, tomato, mochi, black bean, green bean, red bean, black rice, sprout germinated brown rice, black sesame, amaranthus. Body nutrients such as vitamins, iron, and calcium are powerfully clogged.
Mixing with rice and cooking it is a general way to eat millet, but those who "do not like rice if it is not white" are quite abundant. However, if it is a sweet like cookie or cake, I will eat it without hesitation.



If you are not good at sweet things, there are also fertilizer and soy sauce that kneaded ten cereals.
"Shingen ten grain store" series is original of "Shingenba" in front of Shinbunji temple. Let's eat delicious nutrients the body desires.

I have confined the season

Yamanashi is an unknown fruit kingdom. Not to mention grapes and peaches, but there are other special fruits. Yamanashi Yakusho fruits of Honpo fruits Yanagi who made it all together. It is original of "Misaka plantation grape house".
Everything is a light taste made by making full use of the refreshing taste of fruits. I am also happy that all kinds of tasting can be done. It seems that the price is reasonable and the most popular souvenir.
It seems to be delicious to cool down during the coming season.



On this day also the souvenir corner was crowded with lots of customers. It is inevitable that you will get lost, as there are plenty of delicious and unusual items. Yes, please do not worry too much and worry. Because it is one of the pleasure of traveling.
