From the seaside road from Kasumi Fishing Port to Kinosaki Onsen, you can see a spectacular view at every curve. I always stop in the parking lot to look at the view, so I don't go any further (lol). The sea is endlessly transparent and a deep blue. It's so clear that you think you can see the fish swimming from the top of the cliff. How to get there: Car or motorcycle Tourist attractions: Kasumi Fishing Port, Kinosaki Onsen Dining & Restaurants: Kasumi Fishing Port Shopping: Kasumi Fishing Port, Kinosaki Onsen #Kasumi #Kinosaki Onsen

When you think of Kasumi in Hyogo Prefecture, you think of crab. Not only Matsuba crab (snow crab) but also Kasumi crab (red snow crab) is famous. Facility name: Nishitomo Crab Market (Nihonkai Foods Co., Ltd.) Address: 1452 Kasumi, Kasumi-ku, Kami-cho, Mikata-gun, Hyogo Prefecture Access: Approximately 8 minutes on foot from JR Kasumi Station Opening hours: 08:30-16:00 Holidays: Tuesdays The Nishitomo Crab Market is a recommended market to stop by when sightseeing, as it offers fresh fish other than crab, mysterious fish, fish-related souvenirs, and restaurants where you can taste seafood. Crab tastings were also generously offered. There are a wide variety of tagged crabs in various sizes, so you'll end up buying them. When you think of crab, you think of Kasumi. I recommend it ☺️ Visited: Late March 2023 #Domestic travel #Hyogo Prefecture #Kasumi #Gourmet #Hyogo Prefecture #Shopping #Market #Crab #Nishitomo Crab Market

Amarube Station is located just beyond the 41.5m-high Amarube Bridge. From the platform, you can see the Sea of ​​Japan. You can reach the platform by taking a glass-walled elevator. It is an unmanned station with trains running once every 1-2 hours, so it is not a large station, but it is also a tourist spot as a "sky station" because of the spectacular view. The old tracks are still intact, so you can walk on them. Station name: JR Amarube Station Access: About 1 hour by local train from Toyooka Station #Amarube Station #Kinki Tourism #Sky Station #Kami Town

#Osaka Attractions Whether you are an explorer who loves nature or a traveler who appreciates the magnificent sunset, Kasumi Coast will definitely leave you with an indelible visual impression. Large expanses of vast Pacific Ocean views. The sea is sometimes as calm as a mirror, and sometimes it is stormy, like a dynamic watercolor painting that never repeats itself. The distant horizon meets the sky there, forming a picturesque scene of the sea and sky blending into one. But what makes Kasumi Coast famous is the excellent sunset viewing spot that stretches for several kilometers along the coastline. Whenever the sun slowly sets from the sea level, the entire sky is dyed with the brilliant colors of fiery clouds, and the countless rays of light seem to be stretching out its last breath. Together with the scattered silhouettes of tourists on the outlying islands and beaches, it forms a series of stunning natural wonders.

This is a JR Sanin Main Line station located in Kasumi-cho, Mikata-gun, Hyogo Prefecture. After visiting the Amarube Bridge, I took the opportunity to take a ride one stop to Yoroi Station. The return train often comes in a short time, making it ideal for sightseeing in the area. Cross the Amarube Bridge, enjoy the scenery, and go through the tunnel, and you'll arrive in just about 3 minutes. From the station platform, you can see the beautiful Sea of ​​Japan, and there are carp streamers because it's Boys' Festival! I was captivated by the wonderful scenery. The return train to Amarube Station came in about 15 minutes, so it was a short time, but I enjoyed it. #Amarube #Amarube Bridge #Kasumi Town #Kasumi Tourism

[Accommodation] Minshuku Ryokan Choshiro [Location] 788 Kasumi, Kasumi-ku, Kami-cho, Mikata-gun, Hyogo [Access] About 5 minutes walk from JR Sanin Main Line "Kasumi Station" [Parking] Available (free) [Wi-Fi] Available (free) [Reference budget] Current price (16,500 yen/person) [Visit date] Mid-March 2023 In Kasumi, Hyogo Prefecture, you can enjoy the winter gourmet Matsuba crab from the Sea of ​​Japan at minshuku, inns, restaurants, etc. Among them, Minshuku Choshiro is by far the most recommended. You won't feel thirsty even after eating and returning home. The menu is also stylish, so you will definitely be satisfied no matter what you eat. Crab dishes come out one after another. I'm so full I can't eat it all, so I make rice balls of crab rice and other things I can take home and have them for dinner. This is a recommended minshuku that I really want you to try. #Hyogo Tourism #777 #Kasumi #Matsuba Crab #Crab #Gourmet #B&B #Gourmet Food #Gourmet Travel #Hyogo Prefecture #Hyogo Tourism #Hyogo Travel #Hyogo Gourmet
