📍Hirodan Moss Phlox The moss phlox of Hirodan Hana no Sato won the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award at the 21st National Flower Town Development Competition! The three sisters also started planting the moss phlox to encourage their sick mother. There are many ways to enjoy the moss phlox, such as walking around it or climbing up a little higher to look at it from above. The great thing about Hirodan Moss Phlox is that you can enjoy the colorful moss phlox! The mix of light and dark pink and white flowers is also cute. I think many people think of this color when they think of moss phlox. The deep pink color is a feast for the eyes! #0 yen trip February 2025

1. Location: • Tsubakidomari is a fishing village located in the southern part of Anan City, Tokushima Prefecture. It is situated on the north shore of a bay with a deep fault, making it a natural harbor. Fishing is still thriving here. 2. Historical background: • Tsubakidomari was one of the bases of the Awa Navy during the Warring States period. This fishing village was known for its strength at sea. The Mori family, as the general of the Awa Navy, used Tsubakidomari as a base to participate in historical events such as the Korean Expedition and the Winter Siege of Osaka, making the Awa Navy's active performance widely known. 3. Town features: • The town of Tsubakidomari stretches about 1.5 km east and west along a narrow road. The road is very narrow, only wide enough for one car to pass, and you need to turn around in front of a private house's garage at the end, so driving is not recommended. • The houses in Tsubakidomari are closely connected, with almost no private outdoor spaces such as walls or courtyards, which is a feature of fishing villages with scarce land. • The architectural decorations and window railings outside the houses in Tsubakidomari are very delicate, which is a feature of the houses in this area. 4. Transportation tips: • Due to the narrow roads in the settlement, it is recommended to explore on foot, and special attention is needed when driving. 5. Other attractions: • There are other attractions worth seeing near Tsubakidomari, including the generations of graves of the Mori Navy and the stone walls of the castle ruins (Shokaku Castle).

The shop has a very good vibe, I like it very much. At first, I thought it would be difficult to get into a serious coffee shop that doesn't have many customers and only has regular customers (the owner of the shop is a bit arrogant and quiet). But the owner of this shop is very cute and kind, with a good attitude. Like when my grandmother went in and asked if she could just order coffee, she was very happy to serve. She knew that I really like coffee. Even though my grandmother didn't know the type of coffee, she still asked what kind of black coffee I wanted to drink. She gave me choices that my grandmother could easily understand. And one of the grandmothers probably wasn't good at black coffee, so she was happy to serve her milk for free. She didn't just pour it from the bottle. She warmed it up for me first. She was very attentive and didn't give me a small amount. She gave me a lot. The two grandmothers were also very cute. They secretly came to see what Namphueng was drinking and asked because there was a cute orange stuck in it. My grandmother complimented me again and again that the small orange was so cute. And then there was a regular customer who came in and ordered the same menu. My grandmother was excited that someone else ordered oranges again. She had to come and try them next time. They were so cute. It was another heartwarming day. This is also a promise to the owner that if I get Thai coffee beans, I will share some for you to try 🤣 If anyone passes by and wants to try it, follow the map. sumiyoshi 4 Chome COFFEE STAND https://maps.app.goo.gl/o7woSHkubHdkMvEu8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy Sumiyoshi 4丁目 Coffee Stand #cafereview
