Autumn leaves in Gokasecho🍁 The autumn colors in Gokasecho have suddenly deepened over the past few days🍁 The foliage in front of Shirataki Falls in Kuraoka District is not fully colored yet, but overall the area is at peak color✨ I also visited Myoken Shrine and other spots in Kuraoka District; the maples there still need a bit more time to peak💡 Some areas will continue to change color, but how about a drive to see Gokase’s autumn leaves this weekend?😊 ⚠Notice⚠ The road to Shirataki is a forest road with poor conditions. There is little space for cars to pass. We do not recommend driving if you lack confidence, are in a large vehicle, or are driving a low-clearance car.

"Mindfulness Tourism" was Held in in the Kikuchi Valleys in Kikuchi City, Kumamoto Prefecture. We delivered the "ultimate retreat" to maximize physical and mental performance in the Clear streams of Nature. A special experience that sharpens your senses while feeling the breath of Nature away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Mindfulness walking incorporating meditation and breathing exercises. I walked through the Kikuchi Valleys with the chief priest. At each Spot, they slept on the rocky ground or did Zen meditation and quietly faced Nature. In a calm atmosphere, everyone seemed to have refreshed their minds and bodies and found new awareness. Held in on the first day "Mindfulness Walking and Tea Ceremony" A tea ceremony was held in the Kikuchi Valleys by tea people. For the tea ceremony, Kikuchi Valleys's Water is used. In the quiet space of the morning, we calmed our minds and enjoyed delicious Tea quietly. On the second day, they experienced "Mindfulness Walking and Breakfast Meeting". Breakfast while feeling Nature in a dignified space in the morning. I enjoyed it calmly with a truly relaxed feeling. Water from the Kikuchi Valleys was used for cooking, and Meals using clay pot rice and Kikuchi Ingredients were served. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. By walking in touch with Nature in the morning, I was able to forget about my work worries and busyness. The taste of matcha soaked into my moderately tired body, and the sound of the Clear streams seemed to sharpen my sense of hearing and taste. Nature allowed me to meditate, and the murmur of the river and the cool air were pleasant. New Rice cooked in a clay pot and nameko soup warmed my body and soul. The food was very elaborate and really delicious and very satisfying. We received a lot of feedback. A luxurious time where you can feel Kikuchi's food, Nature, and time to face yourself with your five senses. It seems that you were able to feel that you can use the time only for yourself in Nature, where the time usually passes casually and the day ends.

There may be a gori fishing device lined with stones on the riverbank, or the harvest of green nori is just taking place at the mouth of the river. If you take the time to look at the Shimanto River, you will encounter something "river and human activities". And at night, you can enjoy the Ingredients harvested by the contraptions you actually saw in the river at the restaurant. It is a different way to enjoy the "familiar" Shimanto River. 〇 Introduction of traditional fishing methods ・Fire fishing of sweetfish Set up nets to cross the river in advance, and wave a Bonfire from the top of the boat at night. Surprised by the raging band of flames, the sweetfish flees and is driven into the net.

Standard scampi shrimp are brightly colored and eaten with karaage. In addition, it is useful as a Township taste, such as resembling a large raised cucumber. ・Eel fishing 　There are Styrofoam and plastic bottles floating in the river without streaming. This may be a landmark of Korobashi catching eels. Eels, which are sensitive to odors, do not enter resin contraptions, and wooden korobashi is still used even now. ・Gori fishing If the riverbank is lined with stones that dammed the water, it may be a gimmick for Gori's Noborio Toshiue fishing. In the Shimanto River, the juveniles of Numatitib are called "gori" and are popular as a taste of early summer from Spring. Standard is to eat it as karaage or tsukuni. 〇Things to be aware of Fishery rights are set for fishing in the Shimanto River. When fishing, it is mandatory to purchase a recreational fishing ticket.
