I found my favorite museum 😝✨ The Kasaoka City Horseshoe Crab Museum in Kasaoka, Okayama Prefecture, is the only museum in the world themed around horseshoe crabs. The building has a unique shape that resembles a horseshoe crab, and inside you can observe live horseshoe crabs and see dinosaur skeletons! The adjacent Dinosaur Park has life-size dinosaur models on display, making it popular with families. The playground equipment is also dinosaur-themed, so your kids are sure to be excited 😆 It's easily accessible, about 20 minutes by bus from JR Kasaoka Station, get off at the "Horseshoe Crab Museum" stop, and it's about a 2-minute walk from there.

I went to "#Shakodon no Mise" in #Kasaoka City, #Okayama Prefecture ((((((っ･ω･)っ A restaurant where you can eat various shako dishes The inside of the restaurant has the feel of an old-fashioned set meal restaurant, with table seats and raised seats, and the TV plays background music in the restaurant ( ´͈ ᵕ `͈ ) I ordered #Shakodon (large) (人 •͈ᴗ•͈) It was fried shako with egg, and it felt like the pork cutlet in a katsudon was fried shako (*´ч ` *) It was my first time eating shako, and my honest impression was that it was a bit fishy or had a unique taste (ﾟｰﾟ)(｡_｡)mmmm♫ The portions were generous, and I was satisfied with my first time eating shako ε٩(๑>ω<)۶з It's a good place to visit for sightseeing purposes Next time, I'd like to try regular fried mantis shrimp instead of the egg version Ψ( 'ч'♡ ) 🦐Menu🦐 Mantis shrimp bowl (large): 1,150 yen 🏍Mantis shrimp bowl shop🏍 Address: 5914-5 Sasaoka, Kasaoka City, Okayama Prefecture Opening hours: Monday-Saturday 11:00-18:00 Sunday 11:00-14:30 Closed: Wednesday #Travelingwithme #Shinobichan

～Mysterious and ancient✨⛩️ The architecture of Sugawara Shrine is full of ancient atmosphere, as if it can travel through time and space. I walked along the pilgrimage path, quietly admiring the surrounding scenery. These scenes made me feel as if I were in a sacred wonderland, and my soul was greatly awed and moved. ⛩️🌸✨ The statues and artifacts in the shrine, and listening to the guide telling their stories, made me feel the presence of the soul deeply! 🔮🏯⏳ The whole trip made me deeply fascinated by Ichinomiya Shrine! #Japan must-visit check-in spots
