Get to Know Hamamatsu

[Lake Hamana sightseeing] I went around sweets at Lake Oku Hamana!

The two people, wearing Enshu cotton, came to the Tenpaku Iwakura Ruins, which is located within the grounds of Ii Shrine and is known as a power spot near Lake Okuhamana.

This place is also famous as the place associated with Naotora, and a huge stone is enshrined there.

We filmed the opening of Jenne Channel in this sacred place, and today was a day of eating around.

I’m going to go to see the sweets at Lake Okuhamana.

The first place I visited was Sugiya.

This place has a delicious sponge cake filled with red bean paste called “Iisama,” and miso buns are also famous.

80 yen per piece⁉ It’s an unbelievable price, but it’s a filling snack.

We also sell Western sweets such as tarts, so you can enjoy Japanese and Western sweets. “Iisama” was apparently devised in collaboration with Ryutanji Temple, where the Ii family’s family temple is located.

Next we headed to Toyama Honten, which is famous for its Hime-sama sticks.

This sweet with a wonderful name that reminds me of the Princess’s Journey held every March has layers of almond, sponge cake, and strawberry jam, and has a very crispy and fluffy texture. It comes in stick form and is easy to eat, and the packaging is cute. It also makes a great souvenir.

The other place I was planning to go to was Nozawa Seika.

However, unfortunately, they were temporarily closed on that day. You can purchase Daianmaki at Nozawa Seika. Among them, the seasonal strawberry bean paste is so popular that it often sells out. I couldn’t eat it that day, so this is an image from when I bought it another day.

After purchasing some famous sweets from Lake Okuhamana, we took out the very popular hamburger "Mori's Burger" and headed to Hosoe Park.

You can see the view of Lake Oku-Hamana from the observation tower in the park.

It is also recommended as a date spot.

After seeing the wonderful scenery, we sat on a bench in the gazebo and had lunch.

Mori’s Burger is characterized by its juicy patty and sour sauce. It also goes great with buns. Even though I ate fries, I didn’t want sweets. You can put in as many delicious things as you like.

There are other confectionery shops in Okuhamanako, each with a different taste of misoman. It’s fun to compare the flavors, and at the event we will also be selling “Okuhamanako Misoman Story,” which is a pack of misoman from 9 stores.

Akiko Jenne, who has a sweet tooth, is a big fan of “Okuhamanako Misoman Story”! I’m too scared to ask how many pieces I ate (lol)

At this time there were 10 stores. Currently, you can enjoy the taste of Okuhamanako Misoman Monogatari from 9 stores.

The Oku-Hamanako area is a lush green area surrounded by mountains that can be reached within an hour by car from central Hamamatsu City. There are many sightseeing spots such as Ryutanji Temple, Hokoji Temple, Kohoku Gozan, and flower and autumn foliage spots.

Be sure to buy some delicious sweets when you go out.
