Wandering in Yui-cho

20 Feb

This weekend, I spent some time wandering around Yui-cho.

Yui was a station on the Tokaido Road and is famous for sakura-ebi.

That’s about it.

The town isn’t very big. One of its two elementary schools only has 48 children.


The town gates with sakura-ebi on top.


An alley.


The spillways go directly into the sea.


A sakura-ebi shop.


A hill above a mikan grove.


You could feel a cool sea breeze from up here.


You can also see the modern Tokaido Expressway.


Sometimes I forget that I live near the ocean, because I don’t necessarily see it everyday.


The ruins of a house


A bamboo grove.


The remains of pine trees.


A beautifully painted house.
