    Shiga Pref. Hikoneshi Honmachi 1
    A shopping arcade located in 1 Chome Hon-machi, Hikone City. The Hikone City Shopping Street was once known as the “larder of Hikone” and bustled with customers but began falling into decline in recent years; supporters then renovated the arcade as part of a town planning project to revive the local area. Food shops, restaurants, boutiques, apparel stores, and galleries line the street, which now bears a more modern appearance while still paying homage to the area’s rich Taisho Roman history.

Visitors to Shiga prefecture are almost always hopping east across the prefectural border from Kyoto, and they are almost certainly Lake Biwa-bound. Covering an area of 670 square kilometers, Lake Biwa makes up the bulk of Shiga prefecture, with beautiful lakeside paths that offer myriad walking and cycling opportunities, connecting a string of museums, shrines, and picturesque views that finally lead you to Hikone Castle on the eastern side of the lake.
