【密航失敗】下田近郊の名所を巡る#伊古奈比咩神社#サフィール踊り子 #吉田松陰
Hello, the Odoriko train has just left Atami Station, and although I had reserved that train on the station’s internet, the automatic ticket office and green counter at Atami Station were very crowded, so I only had time for about 10 minutes. I canceled because I wasn’t
Going to be able to make it in time, and I’m heading to Shimoda on the local train.The lady at the green counter told me I had to wait in a long line, so I canceled my ticket, but at Atami Station in the morning, I had to cancel. It can get surprisingly crowded,
Especially since the Hikari 500 I took is one of the few Hikari trains that stops in Atami, so there are often lines afterward.Why do you have to get your ticket in advance? Some may say that it is not necessary, but the fact is that tickets booked through JR East’s Ennet
Cannot be picked up in Hyogo Prefecture, where I live.Now, I treat it as if a little trouble is inevitable when traveling. I think you’ll have a more enjoyable trip from now on if you decide that it’s not a bad idea to slowly travel along the Izu coastline in Kigoe, where there
Is a tropical atmosphere.We arrived at Izukogen Station, about 50 minutes from Atami. The train has a 14-minute stop and I would like to go outside for a while.By the way, there is an Izu Teddy Bear Museum near this station, and they are currently holding an exhibition of stuffed Totoro toys next door
. The Royal Express is kept in the vehicle area.This is a super luxurious VIP train, and the interior has Gold Class and Premier Class, so it’s a little expensive, but I’d like to try it once . So I soaked my feet in the footbath in front of the station for about 3 minutes.Now,
I’m near Izu Shirata Station, which is where I went for a while after leaving Izukogen Station.The train will now run along the Higashi Izu Kaigan Line.You can see it in front of the sea. The big island is Izu Oshima. The
Triangular island on the right is Toshima. The island that looks like a flat boat is Niijima. The island beyond that is Kozushima. The island you can see between Toshima Island and Niijima is Miyakejima. One of the 7 islands in Izu. The train is currently running on the Higashi Izu coastline. It’s
A little difficult to understand, so I looked at it on Google Maps. It’s looking from near this red circle, so Miyakejima is between Toshima and Niijima. So, the train would have been an hour and a half from Atami
If I had taken the Odoriko train which I had originally planned to take, but I would have been an hour late when I arrived at the final stop, Izukyu Shimoda.My schedule was messed up. I’ll have to change it a bit, but for now, this is the Susquehanna so-called black ship in front of
The station. Across the road from the station ticket gate, across this black ship, there is a bicycle rental shop called Chari. It’s a shop with an easy name.The owner of this shop has a tough appearance, but he taught me a lot of things and I thought it was a pretty good shop.There seem
To be two other bicycle rental shops in Shimoda besides this one . I haven’t been there, so I don’t think I can compare, but I think it’s a reliable shop.The bicycle I rented may look like a mom’s bike at first glance, but it’s a sports type bike with an electric motor, and
The price is based on the time you spend it. It varies depending on the weather, but in my case it was 1000 yen for 2 hours.Now, as you go east along the coastline from Shimoda, what you can see in front of you is Benten Island, which has a topography like a peninsula. Masuko
Seems to have been a small island in the past, but since then the land has risen up and now it is like a peninsula.More specifically, there are two shrines on this peninsula called Kakizaki Bentenjima, one is The other shrine is Shimoda Ryu Shrine, which enshrines Benzaiten.The
Topography here has cliffs with exposed geological formations, which makes it seem a bit mysterious, but there are cases where a shrine can be built in such a place. As the name suggests, the dragon god that is enshrined here is believed to be the god that controls water transportation.It is
Also believed that he is also the god that controls good luck in words. Now, the reason why I wanted to come here is that the same guide as this geological formation says that it is called Yoshida Shoin, and
It is the same place where people hid in a shrine on Bentenjima and tried to board the black ship. 1854 , 7th year of Kaei This was the second time that the black ship visited the ship, but on this occasion they hid in a nearby shrine until dark, and
Although they failed once in the strong winds, the second time they sailed near the Powhatan, which Perry was on. When Perry went to see him and asked to meet him, Perry seemed to be interested in whether there were young people like him in Japan and considered whether or not to meet him,
But in the end they decided not to meet because he feared it would affect later diplomatic negotiations. If Perry had met Shoin at this time and taken him back to America, the Matsushita Sonjuku would not have been held in the future, and the current history would have been a little different. This
Is the bronze statue of Shoin and his disciple Kaneko. Now that we’ve left Bentenjima, we’ll be cycling for a long distance. Here’s the location: Shimoda Station. This is what Bentenjima will look like when expanded. The next destination, Ikonahime Shrine, is about 30 minutes away by bicycle.You
Will pass through National Route 135, which is called the Higashi Izu Road, but there is a sidewalk separate from the road, so it feels a little narrow along the way. There are some places, but I think you can pass safely for the most part.This is the course where
You can enjoy the spectacular scenery along the Shirahama coast.It takes about 30 minutes to reach Ikonahima Shrine, also known as Shirahama Shrine . This shrine is said to be the oldest shrine in Izu, and there seems to be records that it is a shrine with a long history
Dating back to at least 832 AD.The sacred tree here is 2000 years old, so it is a shrine that is said to be the oldest in Izu. If the tree was planted when the shrine was founded, it may be a shrine that has existed since the Jomon period.
However, the exact year of its construction is unknown . Let’s visit the shrine to make it come true.There seems to be a main hall at the back left of the hall of worship, and this is a sacred area, so please do not stand here for any purpose other than worshiping, so
It does not say that photography is prohibited. No, but I would like to refrain from taking pictures from now on.After visiting the main shrine, I headed towards the beach from the shrine grounds.I don’t mean to neglect the worship hall or the main shrine inside the shrine, but
Personally. One of the reasons why I am interested and want to come here is the torii gate that stands on top of Daimyojin Rock on this beach. Kashima Shrine is also famous as a torii gate that stands on the seaside in Japan
. I think the reason or the idea is the same, but I think the idea was to place a torii gate in front of the sun that can be seen across the sea.Furthermore, here at Ikonahime Shrine, there is a shimenawa rope. There are ropes that look like “shimenawa
” stretched between rocks, and they are like a barrier that prevents evil spirits from going to the other side, or vice versa, but if this is the case, ancient people believed that they Did they think that the world in which they live is full of evil
Spirits and that they should not be allowed to enter the world of gods with the sun ?Also, there are birds that stand in the sea like the Itsukushima Shrine in Miyajima. It’s not facing the direction of the rising sun, so it was probably made with a completely different idea.I can
Only think that it was clearly made with shimenawa in mind, but I bought it at a regular home improvement store. It’s a rope that looks like it’s for sale.So, after leaving Ikonahime Shrine, I headed back toward Izukyu Shimoda Station.My plans went awry, so I originally planned to go from here
To Nesugatayama Station. I was planning to ride the ropeway right away and enjoy the view from the top, but I decided not to do so this time.Now, I would like to go inside the station and ride the long-awaited Saphir Odoriko.Shimoda
Station is Tobata Station. Therefore, car 1 is the one closest to you from the head end, and car 8 is the one furthest from the head.Car 1 has premium green seats, which are luxurious and have leather seats arranged in two rows. Cars 2 and 3 are green cars that can accommodate multiple people.
Cars 4 are shaped like box seats or observation seats. Car 4 is a lounge where you can enjoy meals . Cars 5 to 8 are the general seats.These cars are also considered green cars.Other facilities are also available, and the facilities are luxurious, with one toilet in every two cars.There is
Also a toilet. I would like to introduce you to the fact that the door opens with a button, and of course it can be used by wheelchair users.The toilet was taken after the train was running, and the order was changed in editing. I’m sorry, but
Saphir Odoriko 4 departs from Izukyu Shimoda Station at 16:39.The date I’m taking this photo is December 4th, but the sun sets quite early this season, and it ‘s only around 4:40. It feels like the sun is about to set, and the sun sets very early.First stop is
Kawazu, which is famous for the early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms that bloom with dainty cherry blossoms.It’s been a while since we left Kawazu. Once you get to the coastline, it’s so dark that it’s hard to tell what kind of island the island in front of you
Is. By the way, I think this is what the landscape would look like in the daytime. Now, we have arrived at Izukogen Station, the main station on the Izukyu Line where there are rolling stock areas.The next train is Ito.This train is limited express Saphir Odoriko 4 bound for Tokyo.Next,
It will stop at Ito.As we approach Ito, we will see a decent private house. This time I ‘m staying in Ito, so I’d like to get off here, but it’s relatively cheap if you’re only on the Izukyu Line, which doesn’t cross JR lines. It is possible to ride the Odoriko train.By
The way, here is the green ticket for the slightly old-fashioned Izukyu Line.I will get off at Ito Station, and after this, I will take a hot spring at the inn and take a rest.This time, I will be traveling to Izu, so the main thing is I went around Shimoda in 2018, but
It was a little difficult to do it on a day trip, so I thought I’d like to spend the night there next time.It ‘s such a charming city.Thank you for watching until the end.
