This shrine was certainly an experience like never before! We visited in early May, when the nanoha flowers were in bloom and the seagulls were nesting. There are SO many seagulls, which I thought was really fun to see. Its probably worth bringing an umbrella if you want to make sure you stay clean, but we were able to make it out unscathed. The view of the ocean is really nice, and the seasonal goshuin stamps are beautiful too!

Wow! What a sight. Grand display along this charming coastal line. The main attraction here is the dozens and dozens of seagulls that flock and nest here. However when I visited there was nothing but a peep! Maybe the birds were off on a holiday that day :) But if you're looking for a marvelous sight, this is worth a day trip out to see. Beautiful quiet sea In the distance as you get to the top of this shrine. The waves crashing in the distance feel gentle. And the ocean breeze causing the tall plans to sway like sea plants, is charming in itself.

八戸へ行ったらオススメの立ち寄り場所。 とりあえずウミネコがすごい！ 間近で大群が見てれ迫力あります。 ウミネコの糞には要注意ですね。 神社の登り口に糞避け用のビニール傘があります。 私は使用しませんでした。 神社の周りを３周し参拝。 回る度に色んなウミネコが見れるので楽しいです。 神社もウミネコも神々しく沢山の御利益を頂けた感じになりました。 (Translated by Google) A recommended place to stop when you go to Hachinohe. First of all, the black-tailed gulls are amazing! It's impressive to see a large group up close. Be careful of black-tailed gull feces. There is a plastic umbrella at the entrance to the shrine to protect you from droppings. I didn't use it. I went around the shrine three times and paid my respects. It's fun because you can see different kinds of black-tailed gulls every time you go around. Both the shrine and the black-tailed gull were divine and I felt like I had received a lot of divine blessings.

Beautiful shrine at a nice location! I visited this beautiful Kabushima shrine on an island, inhabited by black tailed seagulls on 11 August 2020 during my summer vacations with my Japanese friend. I loved the beauty and surroundings so much that I visited again by using train from hon-Hachinohe at 11:55 am to same station and then 15-20 min walk upto Kabushima shrine. I highly recommended to visit this beautiful shrine to anyone whoever visits Hachinohe or Aomori prefecture. The Kabushima shrine is a picturesque shrine located on a small hill surrounded by the sea. It is believed that the shrine enshrines goddess Benzaiten and for centuries local fishermen and townspeople have come to the shrine to pray for good luck business, fishing, and more. Access: By Car: 30 min from Hachinohe Station, 20 min from downtown, 25 min from the Hachinohe By Train: 15 min walk from the Same Station By Bus: Get off at the「Kabushima Kaihin Koen」on the Umineko Bus PARKING IS AVAILABLE! YOU WILL HEAR SWEET MELODY OF BLACK TAILED GULLS!!!! Leaving the JR Hachinohe Line’s Same Station and walking along the seashore, you’ll hear a squawking sound as a small island, linked to the land by a road, comes into view. This is Kabushima Island, designated a National Natural Monument as a breeding ground for black-tailed gulls. Every year black-tailed gulls come here to raise their chicks from March until about August. The island is packed with birds, said to number between thirty and forty thousand. The black-tailed gulls have been important to Hachinohe since ancient times as they indicate the location of fishing grounds. They are associated with the goddess Benzaiten, who is worshipped at Kabushima Shrine. The birds are unafraid of people, allowing close observation. While you’re having fun with them, it might also amuse you to imagine the lives of fishermen in the old days. Highly recommended Cheers

If you're a bird lover, you might enjoy this more than most. Very dirty, noisey and smelly place when we visited. Birds were aggressive as young birds were only about 4 weeks old. Free umbrellas for protection are available.

"torii" also means "bird perch" but this is the first torii I found that looks like its actually perched on by birds. It looks quite attractive on top of the hill and provides a nice view but I found it difficult to find a good angle to show how nice it looks on the hill. Bus stop right in front of it, JR station 1 km away.

Normally, Kabushima Shrine is famous for attracting a lot of black-tailed gull. However, in August 2023, they are not there probably because of the heat. I made it to the shrine without an umbrella instead of that. It means poo didn't fall from the sky. This shrine itself doesn't have much character except them.

Very cool Shinto shrine in a rock looking out over the port of Hachinohe. On a fine but blustery January day, the wind chill felt like -10⁰. Fortunately they were serving hot amazake at the top. We prayed, picked up a goshuin, and had some Amazake. What the guide books don't really show though is that the view back to the city is very industrial. In fact, petrochemical, which is not inspiring. Half an hour drive from Shinkansen station.

ウミネコいすぎて笑うしかない かぶーにゃという施設に車を停めて、徒歩で向かうと大量のウミネコの鳴き声が。 強風で無料貸出している傘は差せませんでしたが、運はなく、上から落ちてくることはありませんでした。 ウミネコの数が本当に圧巻です。 たくさん家族作ってね、のきもち。 番なのか、ペアでいる子も多かったように見えました。 (Translated by Google) There are so many black-tailed gulls that I have to laugh When I parked my car at a facility called Kabunya and walked towards it, I heard a large number of black-tailed black-tailed cats crying. The wind was so strong that I couldn't use the free umbrella, but I wasn't lucky and it didn't fall from above. The number of black-tailed gulls is truly impressive. Make a lot of families, Nokimochi. It seemed like there were many children in pairs, perhaps because it was their turn.

My sister who stay in Hachinohe brought us to visit Kabushima Shrine situated at Tanesashi Coast in April 2016. It is an Island inhabited by thousand of black tailed gulls. It was an interesting and unforgettable experience to see so much black tailed sea gulls. Unfortunately, we cannot see the Shrine temple as it was burnt down in 2015 and it was being rebuilt. Will visit again when the Temple Shrine is ready. Recently in April 2021, my sister send me some pictures of the Kabushima Shrine already restored and it really enhanced the beauty of the place.

So many seagulls! The sounds of waves crashing on the coast and seagull chirping make it a very unreal scene, also like something only happen in your dream. I liked that day.

An unbelievable site to see! Beautiful shrine in Hachinohe nestled at the top of a hill on the Shore adorned with bright yellow canola flowers in May and surrrounded by tens of thousands of black tailed gulls. The shrine is frequented by business people praying for good fortune in stocks There's also a super cool Pokémon themed manhole cover if you're a fan. There's an information centre you can observe from, grab a coffee and marvel at this picturesque and very unique shrine. There's also a ice cream, souvenirs gift shop across the road - free parking as well! So worth a visit!! Its best to take an umbrella to avoid droppings!

The shrine provides umbrellas to visitors for good reason and you better use them before you walk around under the flying seagulls! The birds are everywhere and sometimes they are startled and start rising up together and fly rapidly in circles making a lot of noise before settling down again. It is fascinating to watch. There are other interesting things to see in this area, such as the rugged rocks and sea views. A short distance from the Shrine is The Marient Hachinohe City Fisheries Science Museum which is also worth a visit.

Today I had the opportunity to visit the Kabushima Shrine in Hachinohe, Aomori. Despite the cold weather and snow, the shrine was truly breathtaking. The sun shone brightly, casting a warm glow on the shrine's grounds. I was particularly struck by the Japanese flag proudly displayed on the shrine's grounds. It was a powerful reminder of Japan's rich history and culture. Although there were no black-tailed seagulls to be seen today, I was still able to appreciate the shrine's serene atmosphere. The tranquility of the surroundings was a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I made a wish at the shrine today, and I felt a sense of peace and hope wash over me. I am confident that my wish will come true, thanks to the blessings of the Kabushima Shrine. I highly recommend visiting the Kabushima Shrine if you are ever in the Hachinohe area. It is a truly magical place that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired. Additional notes: The Kabushima Shrine is located on a small island off the coast of Hachinohe. The shrine is dedicated to the god of the sea, and it is said to bring good luck to those who visit. The shrine is a popular tourist destination, and it is especially popular during the summer months, when the black-tailed seagulls are nesting on the island. The Kabushima Shrine is a beautiful and serene place, and it is a must-visit for anyone who is interested in Japanese culture and history.

This place is a famous spot to visit in Hachinohe. The shrine is stunning, situated in a lovely location with nice views, especially of the ocean. Beware for the seagulls and their droppings! It's just a quick 10-minute walk from Same Station.

昭和17年、18年に旧日本軍によって、埋め立てられて離島が地続きになったという蕪島。 島の中央には、弁財天を祀り、商売繁盛、漁業安全の守り神として信仰を集めてきた蕪島神社が鎮座します。2015年には火災により社殿が全焼しましたが、全国からの寄付金により、5年かけて再建されました。 この場所はウミネコの営巣が間近で見られるという事で、全国的にも有名になっています。 立派になった社殿のあらゆる場所に、ウミネコがいます。子育て時期は威嚇してくる上、フンがそこかしこにあるので、足元にも頭上にも注意です。 万が一フンが体に飛んできたら、社務所にて「開運証明書」が頂けるようです。 社務所では、お守りなどの他、毎月柄の違う、カラー入りの御朱印を購入できます。 御朱印を集めている方は、ぜひ蕪島神社にも立ち寄ってみて下さい。 (Translated by Google) Kabushima is said to have been reclaimed by the former Japanese military in 1945 and 1945, and was made into a connected island. In the center of the island is Kabushima Shrine, which enshrines Benzaiten and is worshiped as a guardian deity for business prosperity and fishing safety. In 2015, the shrine building was completely destroyed by fire, but it was rebuilt over five years with donations from all over the country. This place is famous nationwide because you can see black-tailed black-tailed gulls nesting up close. There are black-tailed gulls everywhere in the grand shrine. Not only can they be menacing during the child-rearing period, but their droppings are everywhere, so be careful both under your feet and above your head. In the unlikely event that droppings fly onto your body, you can get a ``good luck certificate'' at the shrine office. At the shrine office, you can purchase amulets and other colored goshuin stamps with different patterns every month. If you collect Goshuin stamps, be sure to stop by Kabushima Shrine.

２回目の訪問でした。 冬なのでウミネコはいませんでした。なので、落ち着いて参拝したり、見学することができました。 寒かったけど気持ち良かった！ 海の眺めや空や雲を眺めたり、とてもきれいでした！ ウミネコが居るときは、鳥居の右側に傘があるのでお借りしてウミネコのウ○チから身を守りましょう（笑） それでもウ○チが付着してしまったら、運がついたと言うことで巫女さんに申し出れば　会運証明書　というものがもらえます。 １度目に訪問したときに戴きました。ウ○チを拭き取るウエットティッシュも戴いたのでシミになることもなく気分も良くなりました！ ウ○チついて気分ダウンした人の気分を変えることが出来るいいアイデアだなぁと思いました。 鳥が苦手な人は冬場の訪問をおすすめします。 とても素敵な場所でした！ (Translated by Google) It was my second visit. Since it was winter, there were no black-tailed gulls. Therefore, I was able to visit and observe the shrine calmly. It was cold but felt good! The view of the sea, the sky, and the clouds was so beautiful! When there are black-tailed gulls, there is an umbrella on the right side of the torii gate, so let's borrow it to protect ourselves from the black-tailed gulls (lol) If you still end up with a U○chi on your body, tell the shrine maiden that you have good luck and she will give you a certificate of luck. I received it on my first visit. I also received a wet tissue to wipe off my uchi, so I didn't get any stains and felt better! I thought it was a great idea that could change the mood of people who are feeling depressed due to being pissed. If you don't like birds, we recommend visiting in winter. It was a very nice place!

2023.09.29 ・フェリーの関係で、朝イチの参拝です。ものすごく天気がよく、蕪島に日本国旗がたなびいています。 ・海に面した小高い場所に社殿がありますので、目立ちます。 ・この時期、ウミネコの子育て時期ではないため、ウミネコはいません。鳥居にはウミネコの糞がたくさん付いています。 ・社殿に飾られている蕪のオブジェです。かぶあがり、株上がりと、金運アップを願掛けに来られる方も多いと聞きます。 ・社殿です。まだ朝が少し早いため併設の授与所はこれから開ける準備をしていました。 ・火災により建て直された社殿はピカピカです。これから潮風とウミネコの糞で風合いが増してくるんでしょうね。古い社殿も見てみたかったです。 ・社額も鈴もピカピカです。 ・社殿の周りを３周してから参拝すると、さらに運が開けるとのことです。それよりも青空になびく日本国旗の美しいこと・・ ・参拝後、授与所にて御朱印をいただきました。御朱印は２種類あるようで、これは「蕪島神社」と記載された御朱印です。ウミネコと社殿のイラストが押された雰囲気のある御朱印です。 ・こちらは２種類目の御朱印です。弁財天様を中央に書き入れ、蕪を形どっった社印です。 ・初穂料は１種類だと５００円で、２種類だと８００円と記載されていました。 ・蕪島神社は、八戸市を代表する神社にとして紹介されています。社殿の規模や境内の大きさなどではなく、とても風景にマッチした神社だからでしょう。空と海、ウミネコという日本的な、日本を感じさせる神社のひとつです。 (Translated by Google) 2023.09.29 ・Due to the ferry, I visited the shrine first thing in the morning. The weather is extremely nice, and the Japanese flag is waving over Kabushima. ・The shrine building is located on a slightly elevated location facing the sea, so it stands out. ・There are no black-tailed black-tailed cats at this time of year, as it is not the breeding season for them. There is a lot of black-tailed black-tailed feces on the torii gate. ・This is a turnip object displayed in the shrine building. I hear that there are many people who come here to pray for better financial luck, such as rising turnips and rising stock prices. ・This is the shrine building. Since it was still a little early in the morning, the attached awarding office was preparing to open soon. ・The shrine building, which was rebuilt after a fire, is sparkling clean. From now on, the texture will increase with the sea breeze and black-tailed black-tailed feces. I also wanted to see the old shrine building. ・The shrine plaque and bell are shiny. ・It is said that if you walk around the shrine three times before visiting the shrine, you will have even better luck. Even more beautiful than that is the Japanese flag waving in the blue sky... ・After visiting the shrine, I received a goshuin stamp at the awarding office. There seem to be two types of goshuin, and this is the one that says "Kabushima Shrine." This stamp has an atmosphere of an illustration of a black-tailed gull and a shrine building. ・This is the second type of Goshuin. This is a company seal in the shape of a turnip with Benzaiten written in the center. ・The first fruits fee was listed as 500 yen for one type and 800 yen for two types. ・Kabushima Shrine has been introduced as one of Hachinohe City's representative shrines. It's not because of the size of the shrine building or the size of the precincts, but because it matches the scenery so well. It is one of the shrines that gives you a Japanese feel of the sky, sea, and black-tailed gulls.

海に面した所にある神社でウミネコの繁殖地100周年と謳われていました。 シーズンでは無かったのかウミネコは数羽飛んでいる程度でした。 繁殖シーズンに訪れたら可愛い赤ちゃんウミネコ見れるかもしれませんね。 神社を3周すると幸せになれるそうです。 その遊歩道には七福神と干支の石像が点々と置いてありましてそれを見ながら自分の干支探すのも楽しかったです。 (Translated by Google) The shrine is located facing the sea and is celebrated as the 100th anniversary of the breeding ground for black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed cats. Probably because it was not the season, there were only a few black-tailed gulls flying around. If you visit during breeding season, you might be able to see cute baby black-tailed gulls. It is said that if you go around the shrine three times, you will be happy. There were stone statues of the Seven Lucky Gods and zodiac signs dotted around the promenade, and it was fun to look at them and look for your zodiac sign.

とても空気のよい場所でした。建物３週して、心が穏やか。うみねこは春から８月頃に産卵して羽化して旅立つらしいので、今回は居ませんでした。 (Translated by Google) It was a place with very good air. After three weeks of building, I feel calm. Apparently sea cats lay eggs, emerge, and depart on their journey from spring to August, so I didn't see any of them this time.

うみねこの繁殖地の真ん中に造られた神社。それでうみねこに囲まれて大変です。鳥居の脇に置き傘があるので、必ず傘をさして参拝すること。さもないと、、、うみねこの糞攻撃で撃沈します。弁財天様のお使いのウミネコだからありがたい糞攻撃ですが。 (Translated by Google) A shrine built in the middle of a breeding ground for sea cats. So it's tough being surrounded by sea cats. There is an umbrella next to the torii gate, so be sure to bring an umbrella with you when you visit. Otherwise, Umineko's shit attack will destroy you. It's a bastard attack, but it's a blessing because it's Umineko, Lord Benzaiten's errand.

Beautiful view of the Tanesashi Coastline, with interesting displays. If you’re walking the Michinoku Coastal Trail, this place is a good spot to get more information. Free wifi and toilets onsite. There’s also a cafe next door if you’re hungry or want a coffee or dessert. Car park adjacent

A very nice lady working spoke with me. Her English is very good. She seems really nice. She's very attractive as well. I was just thinking: I wish I would have saw her smile.

Beautiful view of the coast and lawn. Maps, information, restrooms and cafe.

Clean, nice presentations. Great view of seashore from air conditioned indoor.

Great place to swim.

(Translated by Google) A place I've always wanted to go to. A grassy field spreads out right from the coast, and the unfamiliar scenery happens to be snowy, which is also wonderful. (Original) 一度は行きたかったとこ。海岸からすぐ芝生広場が広がって、見慣れない風景たまたま雪景色、これも素敵だ。

(Translated by Google) Information on the highlights, nature, and lifestyle of Sanriku Fukko National Park, A Ministry of the Environment facility that provides up-to-date information from local residents. It was a beautiful facility. The warmth of the wood, the scent of cypress wood, and the clean toilets. What was interesting was this sea urchin stuffed animal. With explanation of the contents ~ (lol) There is a rest space where you can see the natural lawn and the sea in front of you. (Original) 「三陸復興国立公園」の見どころや自然・暮らしの情報、 地域の方々から寄せられる旬な情報を提供する環境省の施設。 キレイな施設でした。木の温もり、檜の木の香り、トイレもキレイで。 面白かったのは、この雲丹のぬいぐるみ。中身の解説付き～(笑) 目の前の天然芝生と海を眺められる休憩スペースあり。

I went to visit my older sister in Hachinohe with my brother in law and younger sister in May 2016, she drive us to Mount Hashikami. It is the first time we climb a mountain in Aomori Prefecture and we simply love the scenery and the cool weather while we climb up to the summit. Along the way up, we can also see many beautiful small flowers plant...

Nice easy hike, mostly shade, great views of the mountains to the Pacific Ocean. Also very well maintained trail and the absolute cleanest restrooms I’ve ever encountered in the outdoors with a spring fed fountain to freshen up. Pic is where I parked and started from 1 hour to the top from here at a relaxed pace.

Favorite hike in the area.

(Translated by Google) It's a low mountain that even elementary and junior high schools near Hachinohe City can go on field trips to. The bottom trailhead is right next to [Forest Pier Upstairs], so set your Google Maps destination to Forest Pier Upstairs or the parking lot a little south. If you are coming from the north side, the trailhead will be on your left. There is also a trailhead from the Tashiro Seseragi Park side. Halfway up is from the [Shirishidaira] parking lot. If you are not confident in your physical strength, you can reach the top by car, so it is better to climb from [Daikaidaira]. Restrooms and rest areas are available at both Shishidaira and Okaidaira, so you can rest assured. From the end of May to mid-June, you can see clusters of azaleas, and it gets crowded on weekends, so try to visit on weekdays. For drinking water, there is spring water [Ryujinsui] near the top of the mountain, but the amount of water is limited, so it is better to bring your own water. (Original) 八戸市近隣の小中学校も遠足で行くレベルの低山。一番下の登山口は【フォレストピア階上】からすぐなので、グーグルマップの行先をフォレストピア階上または少し南の駐車場にセットしましょう。北側から走ってくると左手に登山口があります。田代せせらぎ公園側からも登山口あり。中腹は【しるし平】駐車場より。体力に自信がなければ頂上付近まで車で行けるので【大開平】から登ると良いでしょう。しるし平、大開平にそれぞれトイレや休憩場所も整っていて安心です。5月末～6月半ばはヤマツツジの群生が見られるとあって週末には混みますので平日を狙っていきましょう。飲み水は山頂付近の湧き水【龍神水】がありますが水量が微妙なので持参したほうが良いですよ。

(Translated by Google) It is an affordable mountain that can be climbed within an hour from the ranch. (Original) 牧場からは１時間で登れる手頃な山です。

(Translated by Google) This mountain offers several starting positions to suit your time and ability: those who want to climb slowly can start from the bottom, those who want to climb quickly and enjoy the views can start from the top, and those in between can start from the middle. The view from the top is amazing😃⤴️⤴️ (Original) じっくり登りたい人には下から、さっと登って良い景色を見たい人は上から、その中間の人にはその途中からと、時間や力に合わせてスタート位置が何段階か選べるお山。 頂上からの眺めはサイコーです😃⤴️⤴️

(Translated by Google) It is a mountain with an altitude of 740 meters. Hashakami-dake Daimyojin and Fudo Myo-o are enshrined here. The mountain azaleas are beautiful around May. Ryujinsui is located a little further down the mountaintop. (Original) 標高740メートルの山です。階上岳大明神様、不動明王が祀られてます。5月頃はヤマツツジがl綺麗です。山頂の少ししたに龍神水があります。

Wonderful small town shopping center. Find lots of local produce and goods, if you go in the afternoon on a sunny day many of the small side shops will be open. Try the tofu donuts, and Thai curry restaurant on the left side they're delicious!

(Translated by Google) I only used it overnight in my car. The larger parking lot was dark and lined with large cars, so I parked in the smaller parking lot in front of the restroom. Because it was far away from large vehicles, I was able to use it quietly without worrying about the engine noise. There are a lot of bears out this year, so there were no trash cans, probably as a countermeasure against bears. The toilet is normal. However, it was difficult to use the hand-washing stations in the middle of the three hand-washing stations because the water doesn't come out easily, so I recommend using both ends. However, the water came out slowly. There is a convenience store on the other side of the road, so shopping at night is convenient. (Original) 夜間の車中泊だけ利用しました。広い方の駐車場は暗くて大型車並んでいたため、トイレの前の小さい方の駐車場へ停めました。大型車と離れているため、エンジン音は気にならずに静かに利用出来ました。今年はクマが数多く出没しているので、クマ対策なのか、ゴミ箱はありませんでした。トイレは普通ですね。ただ、手洗い場は3ヵ所並んでいるうちの、真ん中は水が出にくいため、使いにくかったので、両端を使用するのをおすすめします。それでも、水が出るのはゆっくりでした。道の反対側にはコンビニがあるので、夜間の買い物は助かりますﾈ。

(Translated by Google) It was a fun roadside station for first-time visitors, as it sold quite a few local items. (Original) 結構地元限定の物も売ってるので一見さんには楽しい道の駅でした。

(Translated by Google) Visited at the roadside station stamp rally in 2022 and 2023. Last year, I came during heavy rain, so I couldn't really see it. This time, I visited Tatehana Quay Morning Market first thing in the morning! As soon as the store opened, several people who appeared to be locals went there to buy vegetables. It feels like a farm direct center for local people. I thought it was great. Last year I bought fresh sea urchin, but this year I didn't get it because it came too early! I'm thinking of coming back in the summer. (Original) 2022年、2023年共に道の駅スタンプラリーにて訪問。 昨年度は大雨の時に来てしまい、ゆっくり見れませんでしたが 今回は舘鼻岸壁朝市ついでに、朝一番に訪問しました！ 開店と同時に地元の方とおもわれる方数名が野菜を買って行ってました。地元の方のための産直センターという感じですかね。いいなあと思いました。昨年度は生ウニ買いましたが、今年はまだ来るのが早すぎたのでありませんでした！ 夏あたりにまたこようと思います。

(Translated by Google) A roadside station located in the town where the sun rises first in Aomori Prefecture. One of the specialty products of Hashikami Town, ``Hashikami Wase Handmade Soba'' is characterized by its rich aroma and chewy texture, and can be eaten at restaurants. The restaurant is a full-fledged restaurant directly managed by Hachinohe Plaza Hotel, and many of its menus use seafood, including the local dish ``Strawberry Stew'', which has a contrasting texture between the fluffy and melting texture of sea urchin and the crunchy texture of abalone. Well, it was really delicious♪ (Original) 青森県で一番早く朝日が昇る町にある道の駅。 階上町の特産品のひとつでもある『階上早生手打ちそば』は豊かな香りとモチモチとした食感が特徴で、レストランで食べる事ができます。 そのレストランは八戸プラザホテル直営の本格レストランで、海鮮を使ったメニューが多く、郷土料理の『いちご煮』はふわりととろけるような食感のウニと、コリコリ食感のアワビの対照的な感じがよく、めっちゃ美味しかった♪

(Translated by Google) It was great to have so many souvenirs and local products. There were also fresh vegetables lined up. (Original) 土産品や地場産品が沢山あって良かったです 新鮮な野菜も並んでましたよ

(Translated by Google) There are fresh vegetables and seafood. Sometimes there are ingredients that you want in the morning. We also sell sweets and alcohol. You may even come across a bargain. There is also a cafeteria where you can eat Hakagami Soba. There is also a restaurant on site. (Original) 新鮮な野菜や魚介類があります。午前中の方が欲しい食材があることもあります。お菓子やお酒なども販売しています。掘り出し物に巡り会うこともあります。階上そばが食べられる食堂もあります。レストランも併設されています。

(Translated by Google) It's been a while since I visited. It doesn't seem to be as lively as it once was. The fact that the Sanriku Expressway is now fully open and that long-distance traffic no longer passes in front of it has definitely had an effect. And it's far from either of the town's two interchanges. In other words, it is no longer the original location of a "roadside station." With this, I can't wait for lunch time. It can't be helped since the only customers are from the neighborhood. Even the direct-to-farm stores seem to have a poor selection of products. In order to revive it as a roadside station, shouldn't it be relocated to a location immediately after getting off the interchange on the south side? I visited again in the afternoon on Saturday, January 21, 2023. It's quite crowded. Regardless of the frequency of visits, there are probably some regular customers. (Original) 久しぶりに訪れた。かつての賑やかさはないようだ。 三陸自動車道が全通し、長距離移動の交通がこの前を通らなくなったのは確実に影響している。そして町内二つのインターチェンジのどちらからも遠い。つまり、本来の「道の駅」の立地ではなくなってしまっている。これではランチタイムも期待できない。近所客だけになってしまったのだから、しかたない。産直売り場さえ品揃えが悪くなっているように思う。 道の駅として復活させるには南側のインターチェンジを降りてすぐの場所に移転すべきではないだろうか？ 2023年1月21日(土)昼過ぎに再訪した。そこそこ混みあっている。来訪頻度はともかく、固定客はある程度あるのだろう。

(Translated by Google) What a 50 meter pool. Pull buoys etc. cannot be used. The entrance is a little difficult to find, but the person in charge will guide you. (Original) なんと50メートルプール。プルブイなどは使えません。入り口、ちょっとわかりにくいですが、係の人が教えて下さいます。

(Translated by Google) It's nice that the training room is clean. (Original) トレーニング室内がきれいなので良い。

(Translated by Google) They cannot come and go freely. (I went with an escort, but once I left, I had to pay to go back in.) (Original) 自由に出入りが出来ない。(付き添いで行ったが出るとまた、お金を払って入らなければならない)

(Translated by Google) It was very good😌💓 (Original) とても良かったです😌💓
