    Built in 1898 as the manufacturing plant for Kabuto Beer, the building is valuable as a remembrance of the red brick beer factory built during the Meiji period (1868–1912). It is even a nationally Registered Tangible Cultural Property. The designer, Yorinaka Tsumaki, was a master of the architectural world at the time. There is a permanent exhibit inside that shows the history of the birth of Kabuto Beer. In addition, there are exhibitions dealing with a wide range of subjects and the Handa Red Brick Marche open-air market. You can taste draft Kabuto Beer at a spacious cafe.

    レンタサイクルがあり１日500円。 南吉の里エリアを回って来ました。 電車で行く人には便利です。 建物内の有料エリアへは入りませんでしたが、外から見るだけでも素敵です。

    名古屋市との境にある公園ですが、比較的小さくて駐車場もなく知名度の割には寂しい印象を受けます。 「桶狭間の戦い」はよく知られる通り、織田信長の軍勢が今川義元の軍勢を打ち破り、大将である今川義元を打ち取った1560年の戦さです。 信長が全国制覇へ向けての足掛かり的なエピソードとして語られることも多く、今川義元は太った無能な君主の様な描かれ方や「油断していて打ち取られた人物」といった描かれ方が多く、現...

Approximately 100 years after Basho's visit, on the 100 year anniversary of Tsuboi's death, local poets included it in his death poems, and 4 years later (1793), they erected this slab to commemorate Basho's visit."

    Aichi Tahara-shi Iragocho Koyama

Koyama, which can be seen behind the lighthouse located at the tip of the Irago cape. Erected in 1961, the poem: ""Life's regrets are washed by the waves, cutting and eating the seaweed of the island of Irago,"" taken from the Manyoshu, has been carved in Suiken Suzuki's hand. It is said that this poem was composed by Omi no Okimi, who had been swept away to Irago, but recent research instead claims that this style of poem was written by villagers in the region (although the specific author is unknown)."

Aichi Areas

around-area-map

Aichi is a prefecture of great natural beauty with Nagoya city at its heart, a busy hub home to a labyrinth of underground shops and the 17th-century Nagoya Castle. Castles are easy to find in this history-rich prefecture, but the highlight for history buffs has to be the Museum Meiji-mura, where preserved buildings from the turn of the 20th century are displayed in all their grandeur in an outdoor museum.
