We were looking for a smaller place near Kyoto which would be away from the throngs of tourists at the popular sights in Kyoto and decided to take a 30 minute train ride to Omihachiman. At first the area near the station looked modern and uninviting but after talking to the lady at the tourist center by the station we were armed with a map and walked along the main street perpendicular to the station and 30 minutes later we were t the old historical district of Hachiman-bori. This was a Sunday and although there were quite a few Japanese visitors we only saw 2 other westerners. This delightful place had small streets with old wooden Japanese houses on each side, some were cafes, some were souvenir shops and some sold local specialties. We then walked by the canal where visitors could take rides on the small wooden boats. It was a beautiful area with weeping willows by the canal and well worth visiting.

A black wall square where shops and cafés renovated the old townscape from Edo to the early Showa era. The central black wall glass pavilion is a facility that used bank traces built in 1900 (Meiji 33), and a large number of domestic and foreign glass products line up. In the vicinity it is dotted with glass workshops, galleries, cafes, experiences facilities, and you can enjoy the streets and glasses.

It is an easy flat walk from Omi-Takashima Station to the shrine with lots to see along the way - Omizo Castle ruins, Otomegaike Pond, rice fields and the 48 buddhas. We took lunch and picnicked at the granite picnic table near the buddhas.
