Kuratsubo soba

This soba is made with ``Kuretsubo Kabu,'' which was praised as a condiment for soba, sashimi, and yakiniku in the gourmet manga ``Oishinbo Volume 32.'' The unique spiciness that is different from chili peppers and wasabi brings out the soba noodles.

Seishinni Monument

The grave site of Seishinni, the 21st head of the Tono Nanbu family. She is a ``female lord,'' which was unusual in the feudal era. He moved to Tono with his adopted son Tadayoshi, the 22nd lord of the feudal lord, and restored peace in Tono, which had been in turmoil, and was admired by his vassals and residents.

Kojin Shrine

It is one of the places where the original scenery typical of Tono remains. There is a legend that Gongen-sama, who is enshrined in a thatched-roofed shrine nestled in a rice field, bit off one ear of a Gongen-sama from another land, and is also known as Kojin, the fierce god. It is a soothing landscape that you can see reflected in the rice fields in spring, green rice fields in summer, golden ears of rice in autumn, and pure white snow in winter.
