History and Cultural Heritage of Izanami Island during the Ryukyu Kingdom Era Vol. 1 “Mihoso Place: Birthplace of King Sho En” This is the site of the former residence where the man who would become King Sho En of the First Sho Dynasty—known locally as Nishinumachigani (North Matsukane)—was born in 1415 in the village of Moromi, Izena Village. Three kuba (screw pine) trees, three fukugi (Garcinia) trees, and three stones stand within the grounds. One of those three stones is said to contain his umbilical cord buried within it. This site was constructed while Sho Shin—his son and the third king—was on the throne. Right next to this mihoso house is a well called Shiohira Gaa (Sunjagaa). In Okinawan dialect, gaa means well. The well believed to have been used as the newborn bath for Matsukane, later King Sho En, when he was born in 1415 remains as it was at that time. Because these places mark the site of the house where a future Ryukyu king was born, they are regarded as sacred and stand among Izanami Island’s most important places of worship.

Kanazawa is famous for its old townscapes such as Kenrokuen Garden and Higashi Chaya Street, but my favorite place is "Taiyogaoka Metasequoia Avenue". There is a sidewalk on the tree-lined street that stretches for about 500 meters, and you can enjoy a relaxing time while looking at the sparkling metasequoia. When I think about the fact that I couldn't do such an obvious thing with Corona, I can't help but feel the happiness of my normal life.
