Kintaikyo Bridge: A Wooden Masterpiece
#chillandthrill
Crossing the Kintaikyo Bridge in Iwakuni was like walking through a piece of history. Its five elegant wooden arches, spanning the serene Nishiki River, were a testament to timeless craftsmanship. I spent hours admiring the surrounding landscape, with cherry blossoms framing the bridge perfectly. This historic landmark is a beautiful blend of engineering and natural beauty.

[Yamaguchi Gourmet] Saga beef yakiniku restaurant, limited to two groups per day
The beef they use here is only A5 rank Saga beef!!
You can enjoy the finest charcoal-grilled yakiniku.
The 85-year-old owner has been running the restaurant alone for nearly 30 years since 1995,
so they can only accommodate two groups per day.
Make sure to make a reservation in advance!
The charcoal fire is lit according to your reservation time,
so if you want to enjoy the delicious food,
it's best to arrive on time.
▶︎Tankoro...¥700
▶︎Japanese Black Beef Premium Tongue Salt...¥2,800
▶︎Japanese Black Beef Premium Kaimon Kalbi...¥980
▶︎Japanese Black Beef Skirt Steak...¥1,050
▶︎Japanese Black Beef Tripe...¥880
▶︎Egg Soup...¥390
▶︎Replacement Grill (1 pc.)...¥100
Maybe it's because of my age,
but lately the fat in kalbi and loin has been too much...
However, this meat
has a lot of marbling,
but the fat is not heavy at all,
so I was surprised!!
You can choose sauce or rock salt,
but it has no odor at all and the fat is sweet,
so it's delicious even without adding anything♡
Don't overcook it
I recommend slightly rare.
The premium tongue is impressive!!
(It's a little pricey though)
My recommendation is the Tankoro (tongue base)
It's surprisingly tasty despite being reasonably priced,
and you can eat as much rice as you want with just that.
The other thing you should definitely order is the egg soup.
The broth is made from a block of top-grade tongue, and it's absolutely delicious.
It's on the slightly higher end of the price range among yakiniku restaurants in the prefecture,
but you'll understand once you've tried it.
The seafood menu is only available in winter.
The restaurant is clean, well ventilated, and doesn't smell like yakiniku, so it's recommended for women too♡

Seaside shrine, a combo of check-in points for taking beautiful photos
Motosumi Inari shrine, the shrine at the edge of Japan with a view of the vast sea in Yamaguchi prefecture. It took almost an hour to get there through traffic jams, but the views and atmosphere were worth it. It's perfect for those who want to pray, buy amulets, or have their fortunes told like us.
PS. There's a delicious ice cream shop before walking up to the shrine.
