    A Japanese confectionary shop located in Motohama-cho, Nagahama City. The shop’s “Oyadama Manju,” a type of sakamoto manju bun consisting of homemade jam made from select Hokkaido azuki beans wrapped in a dough made with a local sake, have been the shop’s claim to fame since its establishment in the late Edo period. “Oyadama” means “boss,” a name the shop’s manju acquired after people praised these tasty buns as the “boss of all manju.”

    長浜市の黒壁スクエアの、ゆう壱番街にある和菓子屋です。何の親玉かは知りませんが、親玉まんじゅうというまんじゅうが名物みたいです。親玉まんじゅう、麩饅頭を買いました。親玉まんじゅうは薄いピンク色のこしあんの薄皮饅頭で、甘さ控えめで美味しいです。麩饅頭は、ほんのり海苔の風味がして、こちらも美味しいです。食べ歩きに持って来いの和のスイーツです。

    A Japanese ame candy specialty shop situated along the Hokkoku Highway in Sakaguchi Yogo-cho, Nagahama City. The shop’s “Kikusuiame” candies have been renowned among travelers of the Hokkoku Highway since the Edo period. This tasty candy is made using mizuame syrup created by the maltose reduction of grain starch and without the use of sugar or additives. Super sticky, “Kikusuiame” is eaten by gathering and rolling strands of the candy around a stick. The shop also sells “Kikusui no Tsubuame,” the shop’s famous “Kikusuiame” turned into hard candies.

    水飴と固い飴の2種類とても素朴な味で値段も水飴が740円と激安ですちょつとわかりにくい立地ですが腐るものでなくまとめて買うにはいいと思います。

    ここは和菓子専門店です。 久しぶりの黒壁スクエアに行って、まず最初に気になるのがこのお店。 和菓子が美味しいそうだったので前から食べてみたい。と思い。 今回、草餅をいただきました。 草餅の味わいと粒餡のしっかりした味わいが美味しかったです。

    This Japanese confectionary shop is located a five-minute walk from Nagahara Station on the JR Biwako Line. The shop's famous Hoko Monaka wafer cakes are recreations of the sweet bean jam confections the mighty samurai Toyotomi Hideyoshi, lord of Nagahama Castle, is said to have loved to eat. The shop makes two varieties, a standard sweet bean jam-filled wafer cake, and a wafer cake stuffed with a filling made with yuzu zest. The exquisite wafer cakes, a favorite among locals as well as tourists, also bear a gourd design modeled after Hideyoshi's battle standard. The shop sells a variety of other choice, fresh-made, additive-free Japanese confections, such as Chikubu no Homare cakes, and Tora no Ishi buns.

    小さなかりんとまんじゅう。ほんのり温かく皮はかりっと優しい甘さでおいしいです。2個1組で180円はちょっとお高い。観光地だから仕方ないかな。

    醒井水の宿駅から、醒井宿の方に歩いていく途中にあります。 六方焼が名物のようです。白あんがあっさりしており、それを包んだ焼き菓子となってます。価格も120円ですので、散策しながら食べてもいいんではないでしょうか。

Shiga Areas

around-area-map

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.
