AmaHut(Amagoya)experience at osatsu TobaCity“ Hachiman-kamado /Asarihama” ☆
掲載日:2011.10.04
I covered the AmaHut(Amagoya)experience at "Hachiman-kamado Asarihama" in osatsu, TobaCity where the most active ama divers live in Japan♪ (September 2011)
osatsu is also famous for its `` Ishigami-san'' which is believed to be a place where ``a woman's wish will always come true,'' and is visited by many people from all over the country. Maybe it's because there are so many osatsu in Osatsu.
The `` AmaHut(Amagoya)AmaHut(Amagoya)'' is a replica of this, where you can listen to the stories of the Ama divers and have fresh seafood grilled by hand in a hearth. This is truly a valuable experience that can only be done in Mie, where there are many ama divers☆ That's why the inside of AmaHut(Amagoya)is decorated with tools used for fishing.
``When we didn't have wetsuits, diving in the sea would not only make your body cold, give you headaches, but also deteriorate your eyesight, making it difficult to catch prey.'' ``We caught large abalone and hard-to-find sea cucumbers.'' ``I was happy when I was born in Osatsu'', ``I'm happy that my grandson enjoys what I catch'', ``I work in rice fields and fields in between fishing dives'', ``Since I was born in Osatsu, I have always been osatsu.'' Very interesting stories such as "I had decided that I would become one" and "I enjoyed chatting at AmaHut(Amagoya)after fishing."
What's more, I was impressed by the lively and happy expressions on the Ama divers' faces when they talked to me. It made me so happy.

However, on the other hand, because the work is dangerous in the sea, sometimes injuries can occur, and the finger I was shown was slightly bent from being stuck in a rock or fish thorn. You can see that Ishigami-san is being worshiped with great care.
There are four types of AmaHut(Amagoya)experiences: All of them are attractive. Please make a reservation at least two days in advance.

Ishigami-san (Shinmei-JinjaShrine)
Ise Shima
TobaCityIshigami-san Shinmei-JinjaShrine, has long been believed by Ama divers to be able to grant one wish of a woman, and now many women from all over the country come to worship. . Write just one wish on a prayer paper, place it gently in the wish box in front of Ishigami-san and pray. Unique talismans with embroidered stars and grid marks are also popular. Since the star can be written with a single stroke, it means that ``even if an ama diving into the sea, she can return to her original place,'' and the lattice means that ``there is no room for monsters to enter.''
