Otemae Street, Himeji

3.1

#5 of 181 in Things to do in Himeji

Set against the background of Himeji Castle, a World Heritage Site, Otemae Street makes a very attractive stroll stretching some 1.2 km (0.75 mi) from Himeji station to the castle. Offering a superb view of the castle, which sits high atop a hill at the far end of the street, this nicely paved, tree-lined boulevard provides great vibes and good photo opportunities. Sit on a bench and feel the energy of local life, or admire numerous bronze statues by famous Japanese sculptors. Rows of camphor and ginkgo trees provide shade as you wander past restaurants and browse through simple flea market stalls.

車站和姬路城連接的道路。到訪的時候是冬天，剛好兩旁的杏樹轉黃，道路上有鋪滿了烙下的黃葉，透過秋天的冬陽，穿過間隙閃閃發光。真的是一條好漂亮的街道。 more »

The road between the station and the Himeji city. During the visit it was winter, just a couple of apricot trees turned yellow, on the road there are cobblestone filled with yellow leaves, through the autumn of the winter sun, through the gap in the blink of a flash. It's really a nice street.

年度末が近づいているからか歩道が工事中でしたがとても広い歩道なので不便ではありませんでした地元のデパートが閉店の、垂れ幕がかかっていて寂しくなりました more »

Was not because it is the end of the year approaching, sidewalk construction was very wide walkways so awkward, hanging veil of the closing, the local department store, and was lonely
