    恵那駅から明智駅まで約50分なので、ちょうど手ごろな鉄道旅。 特に何かある様な路線ではありませんが、田舎の中を行く風景は雑念を忘れさせてくれます。 行きはほとんど登りで、ディーゼルカーが可哀そうなくらい必死で登っていく様子がよくわかります。一方帰りはその反対なので、ほとんど惰力で走っています。 途中の飯沼駅にはまだ『勾配日本一』の看板がありますが、かなり前に京阪京津線の大谷駅に抜かされている筈なの...

    Gifu Mizunami-shi Akiyocho Togari 54
    An interactive, activity-oriented science museum, one of only a few in the country, located a 10-minute drive from the Mizunami Interchange on the Chuo Expressway. The museum has very few exhibits, and instead visitors can deepen their interest and understanding of science while having fun participating in the various experiments and creation events the museum holds. Enjoy a variety of experiments and experiences like the museum's hour long science shows combining images projected on a big screen with experiments performed on a stage, and special workshops where you can enjoy an experiment show conducted right in front of your eyes. The museum also holds public courses through which you can explore science more deeply.

    サイエンスワールドは巨大な科学館です。コロナの影響でイベントは全て中止、開店休業で他に来訪者はおりませんでしたが、理科の実験を観察するようなコーナーがあり、建物が広く開放感が有りました。入口付近に目の錯覚を起こす絵がたくさん有り、同じ長さなのに、どちらかの線が長く見えるようなものですが、観察しました。

    Gifu Pref. Minoshi Warabi 1851-3
    This museum is located about 20 minutes from the Tokai-Hokuriku Expressway Mino Interchange via National Route 156 and Prefectural Route 81. The museum introduces from various perspectives the world of Shisai style paper patchwork, with its traditions and hidden possibilities for the future, and history and techniques of Mino washi traditional Japanese paper passed down in the Mino area.

In addition, you can also have a “papermaking experience” using authentic tools and natural ingredients in the workshop.

    Nice Museum located in Mino City, Gifu Prefecture. But i think it should have more papers and paper exhibits on display. They had very few.

    宇治に端を発するとされる白川茶の工場が併設されていて、購入したり飲んだりできるのが特徴です。唐辛子の数倍は辛いとされるこのあたり特産のアジメコショウも買え、お土産に良いと思います。食事はメニューのバリエーションが少なそうでした。

    Gifu Pref. Takayamashi Kataharamachi 60
    Located about a 10-minute walk from JR Takayama Station, this long-established store manufactures and sells traditional Hida handicrafts, sashiko (quilted clothes). Housed in a machiya (traditional wooden townhouse) on a quiet street along the Miya River, it has a space that spreads like a gallery. The “bobo kurumi,” carefully made piece by piece, is a cute sarubobo (monkey doll) made using cloth that can be bought only here. There are many small accessories that use traditional patterns in a contemporary style, and besides pouches and bags, there are also luncheon mats and tissue paper cases with beautiful designs. Even the same products have their own individuality, making it fun to search for your favorite one.

    I love sashiko and the projects I share with friends. I purchased some thread and discovered the uniqueness of your products. The staff was gracious and helpful since I did not speak Japanese very...
