Review

  • お昼の定食がおすすめ!
    4.0 Reviewed : 2023.01.22
    何の予備知識もなく初めて駐車場に車を入れると、いったい施設はどこにあるんだろう?と思いますが、狭い入り口を抜けると趣深い施設が広がっています。ここのお昼の定食は650円と大変リーズナブルですが、内容も良く、長距離を走ってきたドライバーにはちょうどいい量でおすすめです!
  • 花の巌神社の隣にある道の駅

    日本最古の神社といわれる花の窟神社の隣にある道の駅で、道の駅の敷地内にも那智黒石で伊弉冊尊の像や口有馬道標や口有馬竜宮塔がありました。道の駅のメインの施設は「お綱茶屋」で、地域特産品の販売や、古代米(イザナミ米)を使用したうどんやおにぎりを食べることもできます。
  • 趣きある木造の建物

    熊野本宮大社方面からさらに伊勢に北上する際にこの駅の道に立ち寄りました。木造の建物が幾つかあって趣を感じました。10台以上駐車できるので今まで、もしくはこれから長距離ドライブした/する方は是非立ち寄られてはと思います。
