    The sea, the flowers and the whale town.

    Original Text

    It is a roadside station with a full-body skeleton specimen (replica) of blue whales. Wada Town, which is one of the whaling bases located all over Japan, is a historic "whale town". Whale fishing has been popular since ancient times in the sea of Wadaura facing the town. Also, whale dishes such as 々 have developed. You can eat whale dishes at this roadside station. But when I saw a whaling vessel like a missile, I felt sorry for the whale.

    A large whale skeleton model is on display outdoors. Whale goods and whale food are sold in a clean store. You can eat whale food at the restaurant. It seems that you can walk to the fishing port in a few minutes.

Roadside Station and appreciated exhibits related to stuffed animals and whale fishing. I think you can enjoy it with your children. In the restaurant, "Whale Tatsuta fried set meal", "Whale hammer whale curry" and "Whale hammer ...

    Dinner break on the drive

    Original Text

    I stopped by for a meal during the drive. You can eat whale food at the restaurant. The fried whale looked delicious. But the fried chicken set meal here is very delicious! The large fried chicken is thin in color but has a firm taste and is juicy. I ate delicious fried chicken for the first time in a long time.

    The model was interesting, but unfortunately the whale hall is closed. It seems to be because of Corona. The shop has a whale souvenir corner.
