Shirahige Shrine sits a little off the main road of Imajo-shuku Post Town.
It is affectionately known as the Lower Shrine in contrast to Shilla Shrine, which is called Kaminomiya or the Upper Shrine.
This quiet, sacred place is lined with towering cedar trees around a slightly long flight of stone steps.

Let me introduce Hakuryu Falls in the Kono Area of Minami-Echizen Town.
This waterfall sits on the border between Minami-Echizen Town and Echizen Town along the Echizen Coast.
Many people ask whether Minami-Echizen Town and Echizen Town are the same, but they are different towns.
A legend says that when 19 people drifting in a small ship from Izumo Province washed ashore at Nukaura, a dragon protected their boat and climbed to the mountain summit to heal itself in a warm pool.
We don’t know which pool healed the dragon, but the nearby Kono Seaside Onsen Yubae offers soothing warmth—wouldn’t you like to be healed like the dragon?

The Japanese archipelago!?
There is a rock in Kouno that looks like the shape of the Japanese archipelago.
Can you see the "Japanese archipelago"?
You’ll find it about 400 meters south from Kono Elementary School along Route 305.
It’s hard to spot, but give it a try!

"ShinobazunoikenoMadara" is a rare lotus that blooms in two different colors on the same species.
Among them, flowers that display two colors of petals on a single bloom are said to be especially rare!
You can see such rare lotuses at Hanahasu park in Minami-Echizen Town.

The white-petaled lotus flower.
The lotus comes in charming colors like pink and white and makes a lovely sight.
It first blooms in mid-June and reaches its peak from early to mid-July.
Some varieties close their petals in the morning, so visiting in the morning is recommended.

At Hanahasu park, water lilies are blooming beautifully.
That said, since the park mainly features lotus blossoms, there are not that many water lilies, but the ones floating on the water look refreshing and charming.
To tell water lilies and lotus apart: water lilies bloom close to the surface, while lotus flowers bloom higher above the water compared with water lilies.
There are many more subtle differences, so please use this as a reference!
