Other, there are many Japanese and Western sweets that remind you of Tonomachi when you get them, such as "Tono Station", "Toyahime", and "Kinfugu Monaka".
It is said that the reason why the name of the confectionery is derived from such a town is that the person who receives this candy thinks that it is "a town" or "nostalgic". Certainly, I think that people who have moved out of the prefecture will feel nostalgic if they receive this candy in yellowtail few years. There are such sweets in Tono.
Nowadays, it seems that there are customers from outside the town and prefecture who come to buy this sweet, regardless of whether they are Town residents.

~Now it's all "Specialties of Tono"~
Hidenoya Udon noodles (Hinoya Udon noodles)
Gari off the Tono Interchange, turn left at the first traffic light, and after a short distance, you will see a sign for "Udon noodles" on your left. That is the "Hidenoya Udon noodles" introduced this time.
In most cases, the Car parking lot at lunchtime is Car full.
We will introduce the recommended menu of Hidenoya Udon noodles, desserts that only those in the know know, and when you should go at the Time Slot / Time of Day.
◆ Recommended menu (including my recommendation)
〇Vegetable tempura bukkake Udon noodles
Vegetables are purchased at Roadside Stations or wholesale directly from farmers. Therefore, all of them are vegetables from Tonomachi. The vegetables are sweet and the batter is crispy!
It's addictive!!
〇Meat ball bukkake Udon noodles
The simmered beef goes well with the broth and hot balls, and it's delicious!!
I recommend this to students and meat Udon noodles lovers! By the way, it is my recommendation. (laughs)

It is "homemade soy milk pudding". In fact, there are customers who come for this dessert and this pudding. I sometimes go there for this. But it's delicious because it's eaten after Udon noodles! Homemade looks delicious, doesn't it? Black honey and powder are sprinkled from the top of the pudding, and its smoothness and slight sweetness give you an Impression that you have never eaten before.
I lived in Kagawa for university, so I ate a lot of Chewy Udon noodles and delicious Udon noodles. However, the noodles at "Hidenoya Udon noodles" are chewy, and you can feel the Commitment in the broth and ingredients, and they are unique, so I personally think that "Hidenoya Udon noodles" is the most delicious.
I was surprised by the Commitment and delicacy of the manager of this shop.
When you stop by Tonomachi, be sure to come and eat the exquisite Udon noodles.

I will do my best to make you want to go!
Tono wine has won numerous awards both in Japan and abroad! The Tono Winery where the wine is produced is packed with various charms.
We will introduce such wines and Winery.
◆ About Tono Wine
Originally, Miyazaki Prefecture had a shochu culture, so wine had not penetrated easily, and it was said that the environment was unfavorable for grape cultivation. Nevertheless, Tono Wine is made with the idea of "making world-class wines" by inheriting the foundation built by "Eitomo Hyakuji", who continued to challenge Cultivation of grapes.
Speaking of Tono wine, it is a Rose wine from Campbell Early, but in fact, this wine was selected as one of the "100 Best Wines in the World" by the wine report in 2004, and this Rose has many repeat customers even now.
Many wines are awarded in domestic and international competitions and awards every year, so there are many people who come to buy Tono wine not only from within the prefecture but also from outside the prefecture and from outside the country, and order online.
There are wines that are easy to drink even for those who are not good at wine, and there are wines that use not only grapes but also Miyazaki's Specialties "Mango". What kind of place is Tono Winery where such Tono wine is made?
◆What kind of place is Tono Winery?
Tono Winery spreads out on the Makiuchi Plateau surrounded by the Hyuga-nada and Osuzu mountain range. Since you can overlook Tonomachi, it is also famous as a night view Spot and a superb view Spot for the town's fireworks festival.
Visiting the site is also available, as this place has shops with wine and bakeries, Brewery and vineyards.
Thereare is not usually allowed into the Brewery, so I don't know much about how it is made, but there is a place in the shop where you can see a little inside. You'll be surprised at how big the machine is!
Also, I have never been to and vineyard myself. However, there is a row of grapes planted next to the cars parking lot, so you can have a simulated experience.
And most of all, the shop! There are dozens of wines in this shop, and the descriptions are written in detail, making it easy to choose even if you don't know. Also, if you can't choose, it's a good idea to ask someone nearby who is familiar with wine.
In addition to wine, there are many "Snacks" that go well with the wine, so it will be a time of happiness for wine lovers.
In addition, this shop also has a bakery, so many people come for bread. There are many types of bread, and the type changes from day to day, so it is one of the Traditional Japanese straw raincoats.
Please stop by when you come to Tonomachi.
Now, the next Sightseeing spot Special Feature is "Roadside Station", the gateway to the road in Tonomachi.

【Sightseeing spot Special Feature Part 1 ✨】
Introducing the Sightseeing spot "Hyuga Province Ichinomiya Tono Shrine" that represents Tono Town!
I will do my best to make you want to go!
Adored by the Town residents as "Ichinomiya Shrine", Tono Shrine is also indispensable for talking about Miyazaki mythology.
#I touched on it a little in 001, but I couldn't introduce it yet, and I explained it in a nutshell, so here I will explain it in an easy-to-understand manner and make you want to go.
◆ Origin of the name of the shrine
The origin of the name of the Ichinomiya Tono Shrine in Hyuga Province is said to have been enshrined in the hope of national peace during the Transportation to the East six years before Emperor Jimmu ascended the throne. Hence Ichinomiya. In addition, it comes from the fact that Tonomachi at that time was revered as Ichinomiya of Hyuga Province because it was Hyuga Country.
This shrine is known as the most prestigious shrine in Hyuga Country.
And from the town where this shrine sits, it became the Ichinomiya Miyano Shrine in Hyuga Province.
◆ Emperor Jimmu's transition to the east
It is said that six years before Emperor Jimmu ascended to the throne as the first emperor, he stopped by this area during his relocation to the east to pray for national peace, Ocean tranquility, and martial luck Nagahisa, and sharpened arrows and other items at the Yaken Waterfall on Mt. Osuzu.
#As we covered in 003, that's where the name of Yaken Falls comes from.
◆ Origin of the founding
According to the old records, it was the first major shrine in Hyuga Province, but during the Shimazu-Otomo conflict that occurred during the Tensho period, the Shrine, treasures, and ancient documents were all burned down by the fire of the Otomo clan. It is said that the Shintai was evacuated to the foothills of Mt. Osuzu and escaped the disaster. After the war, there was no revival of Shrine for many years, and there was only a small Shrine.
In the 5th year of Genroku, the Akizuki Tanemasa was revived, and in the 6th year of Ansei, a donation of Shrine was and by the benevolent family. After that, due to the aging of the Shrine, the "Gozoei Worship Association" was established in 2002 (Heisei 14), and the current Shrine was completed on July 7, 2007 (Heisei 19).
◆ Goshintoku
Ooanamuchinomikoto is the divine virtue. Ooanamuchinomikoto had many wives and had many children with them. Because of this, he came to be called the god of Marriage and the god of offspring prosperity (child-giving).
In addition, he is said to be the god of medical care (peace of illness) because he established the law of medical care and helped many people, and he is also said to be the god of business development (Prosperity in business) because he worked together with Sukunabi no Mikoto to build one nation after another.
◆ To make a good tour of the Miyano Shrine
First of all, when visiting sightseeing spots and public facilities, let's observe good manners.
・ There are Torii (shrine gate) facing east and south There are at the shrine. Most people enter from the south-facing Torii (shrine gate) gate near the Roadside Station, but be sure to bow before passing through the Torii (shrine gate).
・ The center of the approach to the temple is the path of the gods, so try to walk on the edge.
・At Temizuya, cleanse your hands and mouth. Some people wonder why they do this, but this is a preparation for stepping into a sacred space. It is a simplified version of an ancient ritual called misogi.
Next is the worship hall. It will be done in the manner of two bows, two claps, and one bow.
After that, it is common to enjoy it by drawing fortunes or buying amulets.
・Recently, more and more people are visiting the Shuin stamps. I also carry the Shuin stamp books in my Car. At Tono Shrine, the limited shuin stamps change every month. For example, in March, there is a peach festival, a hinamatsuri (doll festival), so there are illustrations of Ouchiura-sama and Mihina-sama, and more specifically, there are limited to three days. When the illustrations change from month to month, you'll want to collect them all!
・ In Other and Precincts, there are There are beliefs that have Benefit when petted, such as the divine elephant of "Marriage and child treasure", the great country of "Prosperity in business and child-giving", and the rabbit of "peace of illness".
When you come, please stroke it.
・ In addition, the Car parking lot set up in the Tsuno Shrine Shokudo Ichinomiya and, Udon noodles and Soba are Famous. Prayer, it is common to eat Udon noodles and go to the next sightseeing spot.
Even on weekdays, it may be full.
