I love Kumamoto very much. I have lived there for fifteen years. I was born in Tokyo. My family had lived there for ten years. After that we have lived Fukuoka for two years. And we moved to Kumamoto when I was five years old. So I almost grew up in Kumamoto. Now I will tell you about my favorite places in Kumamoto.
Kumamoto has many historical places. Especially "Suizenji Park" is a tourist attraction in Kumamoto. I like it the park, because I have lived at a nearby company housing when I was five years old. Suizenji Park is a Japanese style garden whose owner was a lord Hosokawa Tadatoshi. He was the first lord of Higo Clan. So this place was his garden and first it made for tea store. I like this view and I feel that Japanese culture is beautiful and very good. I also like harmony of Japanese heart. I am learning tea ceremony to know it at tea ceremony club.
Kumamoto has a lot of hot springs. I love them. Especially I recommend you "Tsetate hot spring" in south of Aso. It is located on the border of Oita and Kumamoto prefecture. That is surrounded by hills. I like this town's atmosphere. I went there on April 5th. There were many crap- shaped streamer swimming in the sky. This is a festival of Tsetate hot spring town. When I soaked in one of hot springs there, it was in front of the stream. This front view relaxed me and the time passed silently. I like this situation because I can rest as I feel a kindly breeze and nature. So this is the most comfortable and tranquil place for me.
Talking of Japanese food, sushi is famous. My favorite turning sushi shop is "Shinsen ichiba". My family often goes there and it is near Kumamoto high school and Kumamoto Gakuen University. I love this shop's conger and broiled sushi. They are very fresh and delicious. I always order soft cream after having eaten sushi. This shop's soft cream is very rich milk. And we can watch craft man's how to make hand shaped sushi. I like this type of shop. And a craft man told me "All fishes are from Kumamoto". So we can eat fresh fish for living in Kumamoto.
There are some tasteful sweet shops in Kumamoto. I knew them from my oldest sister and my childhood friend. I have two favorite sweet shops. One is "COTSWOLDS", tea house. Recently I found this shop, when I went there with my childhood friend. It is in Ginza Street and near ex Kinokuniya book store's doorway. This is famous for its tea and there are many kinds of tea and waffle and also sandwiches and cakes. I liked this shop for atmosphere was restful. Also the cutlery was lovely shape and plate was very cute design, it pleased me. Combination of Clotted cream and maple was very good, and it was like rich milk soft cream.
Another shop is "Sweets Bar". This shop is near Shimotouri's Mac. The owner trained in France, so all cakes are like art. It always thrills me,but it's not too sweet. So everyone can eat and savor them. I felt this shop's atmosphere is like France. And the owner also likes painting. I heard like that from my oldest sister. Several of her pictures are hung on the wall. I like her paintings. So if you visit there, please enjoy eating cakes and watching her paintings. Kumamoto has many good places.
