One of the many railway Bridges in the area. Get the train timetable, arm yourself with a good camera, and shoot!! Nt just a place for railway enthusiasts (I never thought i was one, until I saw the Bridges - and the great locomotives rolling into Senzu station ...)

Three or four interesting little shops, selling local produce. Of course. thousands of kinds of tea! Apart from traditional green tea, Kawane produces black tea - very different flavour.

While riding the Oigawa Railway, my steam train stopped here for a few minutes, so I got off the train and stretched my legs. I wish I could have taken more time here, but I had to get back on the train.

This building contains an interesting little railway museum, a cafe with hot and cold food (including black curry), and a gift shop with local tea and food. If you're waiting for a train, come here and take a look.

Imagine there were castle buildings and Sengoku warriors more than 400 years ago at the place where you stand. The ruins of Suwahara Castle may bring such an intellectual fun to those who enjoy a quest for history of Japan.
The Suwahara Castle was built by Takeda linegage, designed by Nobufusa Baba. This castle was aimed to enlarge Takeda's territory toward west against Tokugawa lineage. Utilizing the topography of mountain area, the castle seemed be designed for the advantages in the battles.
Walking in the ruins, you can see the structures of the mountain castle. Though there is no buildings, you may know how the area was in the past.
The ruins seem under construction by Shimada city hall so that the visitors can walk around comfortably and enjoy watching more.

A beautiful place to see a Shinto Shrine where the local people worship the god of the Oi river guardian. Every three years, the Shimada Taisai Obi Festival is held in mid-October, featuring the priests with the "funny walks". Reminiscent of Monty Python! A photo opportunity with the picturesque little wooden bridge over a tranquil pool of large carp.

この春から仲間たちを集めて休日に旧東海道を歩いています。JR金谷駅横のガード下から急に上り坂になります。ガード横には当時金谷一里塚の説明版があって歩く距離の目安になります。道路を横切ると金谷坂の石畳が見えてきます。当日は晴天で上り坂なので滑ることなく、上の道路まで歩けました。石畳は丸みがあって滑り易いので下りで雨が降ると大変です。石畳の途中には滑らず地蔵もあってそのためかなと思います。石畳の上には金谷坂の案内板があって、往時を少し偲ぶことができます。アスファルトの旧東海道をそのまま歩くと、諏訪原城の入口があります。そのまま少し歩くと菊川坂の石畳があって東海道の石畳が楽しめます。

Makinohara Park is at the northeastern edge of Makinohara Plateau about 200 meters in elevation. I went there during the rainy season in July, the hardest time to see Mt. Fuji. More often than not this place could be covered with thick mist at that time. So I was lucky to find Mt. Fuji over the clouds. In wintertime, the chance to get the clear view of Mt. Fuji is really high. From this lookout you can have the roundabout picture of Shimada, Fujieda and Yaizu area and Oigawa river and the Mountains nearby. Night view is just breathtaking. It is also close to Ocha-No-Sato Museum, the museum about Japanese tea and the tea around the world.
