[2025 Hita Attraction] Travel Guide for Mamedamachi (Updated Mar)

Hita, also known as Mini Kyoto, is a quiet and peaceful rural town near Fukuoka. I visited in early January, which is the peak season for Japanese travel, but it was not crowded and quiet, so it was an even more healing travel destination.🕊️ Since Hita has many picturesque alleys, I highly recommend renting a bicycle and exploring the town.

#OverseasFlightEvent #JapaneseEelDonburi #JapaneseRestaurant This place, ‘Kurodaya’, where I ran to eat my first eel donburi in Japan This place had a lot of parking space and was a house that seemed to have a long tradition. The interior had warm sunlight shining on the wooden floor. The feeling of the space itself expressing ‘warmth’. 🔹‘Kurodaya’ is usually popular with group tourists, so it was quite large. Even though I felt that there were quite a few seats, there were often waiting lines. ⭐️‘Kurodaya’s’ main menu is eel donburi, but they also have grilled dishes and other menus. Also, the eel donburi in the wooden steamer usually has a lot of eel, so if you want to eat a lot of eel, I recommend it, and if you want to eat less, you can order it in a bowl. ⭐️Green tea is really delicious in Japan. I think it’s because of the culture of eating ‘ochazuke’. It’s a dish where you pour green tea on rice and eat it with other things. If you ask for a separate bowl, it is delicious to put some rice in it and pour green tea water over it. 📍Kurodaya 2-2 Mamedamachi, Hita, Oita 877-0005 Japan Every day 10:30 - 18:00

As a traveler who has visited Kyoto twice this year, I think that there is no better place than here to take pictures and make good memories in a landscape that resembles old Japan, even though there are no tourist attractions like cultural heritages compared to Kyoto! You can walk along the Hita streets, which are even more beautiful now that the autumn leaves are in full bloom! Hita is said to be famous for its yokan (sweet bean jelly)! If you visit, be sure to try it!

Although there are many machichos in the Edo period in Kyoto, there is always a lot of people going to the sea. In fact, in Hita City, Oita Prefecture, Kyushu, there is also a Bean Town, which is called Kyoto. It is said that the old-fashioned drains and the streets like Gossboard are used throughout the town. The whole town area reflects the rich cultural color of the Edo era castles. Visitors seem to return to the Edo period 300 to 400 years ago. Experience the life of people at that time. Dututani's business district has wine shops, soy sauce shops, specialty hand-made souvenir shops, and sheep-tasting dessert shops. It takes two hours to stroll here, take pictures, and people are less fresh and comfortable.

The water quality of Hita is good, and there are many old shops for making wine and soy sauce. Tianbao's 14-year-old shop "Hita Soy Sauce" specializes in soy sauce, which is also the oldest and most famous brand in Toda-cho. The young Yu Temple is going inside, and it is the Tiantians young man-shaped exhibition. The entrance was very inconspicuous, but I went in and found a huge array of people, with more than 3,000 people, filled with several rooms. These dolls represent the ancient royal family, such as the emperor and queen, as well as the prominent lords and servants. These beautiful dolls are placed on multi-storey shelves and displayed in traditional Japanese-style rooms. Some dolls were made in the Edo period and are very valuable.
