Yobuko (呼子) is the most famous city about squid. Many people all over Japan come to Yobuko for just eating squid!! However, this time, we introduce the nice point of Yobuko without eating squid.
Anyway, let' go to Yobuko!! We drove a car from Karatsu about 30 minutes. Yobuko has no train station, so please go there by bus or car. First of all, we went to Marinepal Yobuko (マリンパル呼子).
Here we ride on a ship. The ship was pink colour! Cute!!
This ship left Yobuko port for Nanatsugama (七ツ釜), which is famous scenic spot. This is Nanatsugama. Nanatsugama was created by the strong waves that cut the rocks for long time. And Nanatsu means seven in English. Why seven...?
This is because there are seven halls at Nanatsugama. It is hard to recognize seven halls in this photo, so please check it out by yourself!! Then, our ship got close to the hall. And finally, we reached the entrance of the hall. So close that we got excited!!
After we went back to the bay, we walked around Yobuko city. The good old Japanese fishing harbor was there. Yobuko is also famous for a morning market. Yobuko's morning market is known as one of the three biggest morning market in Japan. You can buy and eat fresh seafood here. Please experience it!!
We found an interesting rolling squid machine.
Weenjoyed Yobuko city very much!! Yobuko is close to Karatsu. So we recommend that you go to both Karatsu and Yobuko when you have plan to go to this area.
