AROUND JAPAN

Michinoeki List(Shiga prefecture)

The symbol of Shiga Prefecture is Lake Biwa. There are 20 michinoeki(s) in Shiga prefecture surrounding Lake Biwa. Many of Michinoeki(s) offer beautiful views of Lake Biwa. As for local cuisine, funa-zushi and Omi beef are famous. However, funa-zushi is very peculiar(especially its smell), and even Japanese people are divided on whether they like it or not. If you are a challenger, you may want to give it a try. On the other hand, Omi Beef will probably be tasty to everyone.
