After walking along the old Iseki Highway and visiting the site of the old terakoya, etc., let’s visit the “Magochakushi Shrine,” which prayed for the cure of smallpox, and learn about its history and the old vegetation that remains on the grounds of Takinomiya Shrine. Also, try your hand at ume picking and enjoy making pickled plums, ume jam, and ume wine at home. If the weather is fine, you can enjoy a spectacular view of Ibuki Island and the Chugoku region over Iseki-ike Pond from the ume fields.
Also, for lunch, we will move to Gogo Water Mill for a pizza making experience.
