The contrast between the rough sea and the crystal clear water is breathtaking.
Once we descended the stairs, the sea and huge rocks spread out before our eyes, and we were thrilled by the mysterious sight! The mysterious sight is exciting and makes me feel excited!
No matter where I cut out a picture, it was so picturesque that I kept clicking the shutter of my camera over and over again.

Saimura is famous for its sea urchins!
We would like to introduce some gourmet food that you can enjoy even in the fall when you cannot eat sea urchin bowls!

I couldn't stop saying over and over again, "This is so good! I could not stop saying over and over again, "This is delicious!
In fact, this laver is a natural rock laver from the local village of Sayi, and is so precious that it is said to be a mirage.
The seaweed is carefully processed, so it is not difficult to chew, which is a common problem with seaweed.
The salted sea urchin is also produced in the village of Sayi.
There is no reason why it can't be delicious.
Please be careful, because they may not be able to get seaweed at certain times of the year, such as winter, and may not be able to sell it.

Here are some more things we found!
Gotaro Mikami's birthplace

It was the home and clinic of the Mikami family, who had been doctors for generations.
Inside, old medical equipment and a very rare old x-ray (that looks like it could summon aliens) are on display, making it a must-see for those who love old houses and old things.
Gotaro Mikami was a doctor who, when surrounded by the enemy in the Russo-Japanese War, made a hand-sewn Red Cross and treated injured soldiers regardless of whether they were friend or foe.
He also spent his private fortune to buy the latest medical equipment in Sai-mura, and provided traveling medical services by boat.
Souvenirs found at Tsugaru Kaikyo Cultural Museum Arsus
It is a tea made from apios and apios flowers, which are known as healthy vegetables that are not easily found in supermarkets.
Apios is a legume native to North America, but it has become a specialty of the village of Sai because monkeys do not eat it and it has been used to prevent damage from animals.
The product in the photo can be stored at room temperature, making it a convenient souvenir.
If you warm it up in the microwave before eating, it tastes great.
The flower tea has a relaxing aroma and taste like herb tea.
This is the "best" this time!
The color of the soil in the foreground and the huge rocks look as if they are not in Japan.
It is strange that the area seems to be an arid region, but behind the rocks is a vast expanse of ocean.
Let's go find the "best" in Saimura!
We hope you will also visit the village and find your own "best"!
