●“Ise Kawasaki Merchant Hall” where you can enter merchant houses and storehouses from the Edo and Meiji eras
●“Shōkōkura Cafe” has delicious handmade cakes
I went out with my family and felt like I had traveled back in time!
At the end of the article, we will also explain how to take photos to preserve wonderful memories of your trip!
A father of a naughty daughter and a selfish son who lives in IseCity.
There tends to be an increase in photos of children looking like idiots (lol), but do they look energetic, fun, and cute? We are active with this motto!
After actually going out with my family, I'm sharing the charms of Mie that I highly recommend.
Kawasaki is a town that flourished along the Seta River as the ``Kitchen of Ise,'' which supported the worshipers of IseJingu.
The scenery from the Edo and Meiji eras has been preserved along the river.
The nostalgic old townscape is picturesque!
It is a spot that you can enjoy relatively regardless of the weather, even on rainy or cloudy days.
It is a spot where you can also see the Kawasaki River Station, which is not just Michi-no-eki.
It started raining while we were out walking, so we took a nice break while looking at the museum on the second floor.
For some reason, the two of them looked like they were having fun while I was panicking about the sudden rain (lol)
My daughter was excited♪ and went into the general store.
When I went out with my kids and went into a general store, I was no longer enjoying shopping, so I hurriedly stopped them (lol).
The other day, my wife and I went there for a leisurely visit.
There are many warehouses with distinctive black painted walls.
You can actually go inside seven storehouses and two townhouses from the Edo and Meiji eras, and tour the representative merchant houses of Ise-Kawasaki and the museum inside the storehouse.
Inside the merchant's building, there are also preserved cider filtration facilities that were manufactured from the Meiji period to the Showa period.
The two small children show interest in each and every item on display and placed, but they are reluctant to move forward (bitter smile).
You can also go up to the second floor of the merchant's house and see the atmospheric city from above.
From the window on the second floor, the two of them were in high spirits, shouting, “Someone’s here!!”
By the way, this place is also used for pre-wedding photo shoots.
The stairs are also made into stair chests that give a sense of the times, and are installed everywhere in merchant houses and storehouses.
It was so relaxing that I thought it was my own home.
The museum inside the storehouse also exhibits ``Yamada postcards,'' which are said to be Japan's oldest banknotes.
*It seems that the only place in Mie Prefecture where you can see Yamada Hako is the Ise Kawasaki Merchant Museum.
The children were more interested in the display of old-fashioned tools than in the museum.
My favorite was a machine called a toumi that used wind to sort rice, and for some reason I was constantly basking in the wind that came out of it (lol).
I think adults can explore the area in about 1 to 2 hours.
The other day, my wife and I went to Shōkōgura Cafe.
You can eat homemade cakes at this cafe, and it was so popular that the first time I visited, it was sold out even though it was 2pm.
I was able to enjoy sweets in a calm atmosphere that still retains its original appearance.
A reprint version of Essider manufactured in Kawasaki was also on display.
Although I couldn't introduce them all in this article, Ise Kawasaki is full of other unique cafes and restaurants!
Ise is a particularly famous tourist destination in Mie Prefecture, but when you visit Ise, be sure to take a leisurely stroll through the retro and calm townscape of Kawasaki!
While I am active as a member of the camera club, I often take photos with smartphones in addition to single-lens reflex cameras (lol)
If you have children with you, feel free to take photos so you can preserve more memories.
In fact, many of the articles I've written so far have used photos taken with smartphones, and most of the editing and adjustments to the photos are done using smartphone apps.
When taking pictures with a smartphone,
●Take photos using the camera's portrait mode
●Touch the child on the screen before taking the picture
If you keep this in mind, you can take bright photos with a blurred background similar to a single-lens reflex camera.
When you actually compare the photos, smartphone cameras are inferior to single-lens reflex cameras (bitter smile).
However, personally, I have no problem enjoying it on the small screen of my smartphone.
So, don't think too much about it, just take photos, and enjoy them as much as adjusting them later on the app!
For spots and photos in Mie that are not introduced in the article, I post them on Instagram, so please take a look if you'd like!
Thank you for watching until the end.
We will continue to post articles about the Mie Travel Camera Club every month, so please stay tuned!
