[2025 Kure Attraction] Travel Guide for Osaki Shimo-jima Island Mitarai Area (Updated Apr)

𓇠✈︎ "Mitarai Preservation District" on a remote island in Hiroshima A road trip while island hopping on the Tobishima Kaido The port town of Mitarai was designated by the government as an Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings in 1994 It is also a filming location for Drive My Car There were posters of the movie starring Hidetoshi Nishijima and the red Saab, which was filmed here, hanging in the town There were many cafes and restaurants that we stopped by while strolling around the port town, and many photogenic spots! 📍Shiomachikan The interior was retro with a Showa era feel, and the pudding bowls were cute 📍Funayado Cafe Wakanaga A cafe renovated from a building that used to be a boathouse. If it's available, I recommend a seat on the second floor. The chocolate cake had lemon peel from Hiroshima and was delicious. 📍Kou Setouchi Main Branch I had lunch here. Anago rice and sea bream set meal 📍Kangetsuan Shintoyo A lodging that only accepts one group per day Apparently, the photo of the drive-by car was taken on the second floor here. I looked at the website and it was a wonderful lodging. #besttrip2023 #domestictravel #hiroshimatrip #hiroshimatourism

Access: 30 minutes by boat from Mihara Port Tourist attractions: Cafe and souvenir shop "Shiomachikan", Sugawara Shrine, Edo period streetscape, etc. The Mitarai district of Osaki Shimojima is a stop on the tour from Mihara Port. The Mitarai district retains the streetscape of the Edo period and is preserved as a preservation district. Shiomachikan is a small shop that sells cafes and souvenirs. If you go to the Mitarai district, it's definitely worth stopping by. Cafes and luxury inns line the seafront. There are also about three shrines. It takes about 60 minutes to look around, so it's perfect for a stroll. #Domestic travel #Hiroshima #Edo period #Osaki Shimojima
