No Comments Blog, Travel

Izushi-Cho is a small village that prospers as a castle town and is called the Sho-Kyoto (little Kyoto) of Tajima. Here you can still find traditional scenes once seen in the ancient city of Kyoto. The specialty of this town is buckwheat noodles, called Izushi soba, and there are about 50 soba restaurants in the town.
出石町は城下町として栄え、但馬の小京都と呼ばれる小さな町です。ここでは、京都のような歴史ある景色が未だ見られます。名物は「出石そば」で、町には約50件のそば屋があります。

A keen photographer and Japanese language learner. After working as an engineer for 10 years in Adelaide & Sydney Australia, I headed to Japan and fell in love with the culture, people and nature of this beautiful land. Since that visit, I changed my career, became a teacher and photographer and my goal is to some day live in Japan.
