Did you know that there is a temple in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, also known as the Cat Temple? Gotanjoji Temple is a Soto Zen temple located in the quiet mountains of Shoda Town, Echizen City. It has a solemn temple atmosphere, but in fact it protects and raises more than 50 abandoned and injured cats. Of course, there are many cats, which is soothing, but what surprised me was that even the Buddha statues had cats on them. They are so cute that I couldn't stop taking photos. They also have maneki-neko fortune-telling slips, cat goshuin books, and goshuin stamps full of cats, so they are recommended as souvenirs! #Domestic Travel Record

Additionally, the rice and condiments are colored, making it visually appealing 🩷 It's a bit pricey, but it's a cafe you should definitely visit ✨

Takefu Knife Village is a place where Echizen Uchihamono, a knife with a history of 700 years, is manufactured and sold. Of course, you can buy knives, but it is a rare industrial tourism facility in Japan where you can watch blacksmiths and sharpeners at work for free! And the photo spot at the back of the store is recommended. Using a mirror, you can take a photo of countless knives pointing at you.
