We so enjoyed our visit to Yamaroku Shoyu. The guide spoke English very well and was so welcoming and informative, sharing interesting information about the brewing process and the history of the business. It was fascinating to learn about this traditional shoyu brewing process and I am so pleased that we visited. While less than 1% of shoyu is brewed using these traditional practies, I am heartened to know that Yamaroku carries on this important cultural tradition. I look forward to using the shoyu I purchased.

We enjoyed walking around the Olive Garden and taking pictures with the background of the windmill. Free rent of broom in the center.

We walked up from the ropeway as it hadn’t started raining yet and we wanted to experience the forest which is natural. Although past the prime the autumn leaves were lovely. The forest was lovely and quiet and despite all the signs we were not disturbed by inoshishi leaping out of the bush at us. When we reached the top the clouds came in, the rain started and the temperature plummeted. We decided to take the cable car down the mountain which was a great idea as it took us through the gap which was not accessible by the path. The view was amazing and the trees looked gorgeous. We were treated to a lone trumpeter at the top playing beautifully through the mist. Thanks to whoever that was.

Nakayama Senmaida was not in my original plan, as I planned to go for Kankakei and Olive Park. Due to my arrival time at Shodoshima was a little bit late, so I didn't have luxury to go for these 2 spots. However, by switching to Nakayama Senmaida, it made me felt more fruitful. During my visiting, it was a hot summer's afternoon, not many farmers (in fact, no farmer) were working. I took an Olive Bus and stopped at Nakayama. Initially I tried out my best to search for a spot / place so called Senmaida, but eventually I noticed I was wrong! The entire place is called Senmaida and whenever you are standing, is surrounded by paddy field. By standing on within the paddy field and watching the paddy waved by wind was a healing experience. The bus heads to Tonosho will approach after about an hour. My recommendation: stop at Nakayama and walk back to Kasuga-Jinja Mae (a stop before); you can visit the Kasuga shrine and walk up the slopes to see a better view. The Kasuga-Jinja Mae is equipped with WiFi! The returning bus to Tonosho is opposite the bus stand, but close enough to connect to WiFi.
