[Shizuoka] The retro "Shimoda Perry Road" is perfect for a stroll

Perry Road is said to be where Perry, famous for the arrival of the Black Ships at the end of the Edo period, actually walked. It is now a stylish street with a nostalgic feel. Retro buildings line the small river and are very photogenic. If you want to see the Namako Wall, we recommend the former Sawamura residence, which can be visited for free. The Treaty of Peace and Amity between the United States and Japan was negotiated here at Ryosenji Temple in Shimoda. Purple American jasmine flowers were in full bloom. The eel rice bowl at Ogawaya, located just one step down the alley, was delicious and hearty (reservations recommended). After Perry Road, you can take a walk along the coast! 📍3-1, Shimoda City, Shizuoka Prefecture #history #gourmettrip #izutrip #trip2022
