Local cuisine of Tsuruga and Wakasa
The town of Wakasa invites you to enjoy the natural beauty of the Mikata Five Lakes, the historical buildings of Kumagawa-juku, and the gastronomy of Wakasa Bay.
Wakasa Town is located almost in the center of Japan and is blessed with rich nature, including the Ramsar Convention-listed Mikata Goko (Five Lakes of Mikata),
and has many sightseeing spots. Among them, the Rainbow Line Mountain Top Park is a popular tourist spot and has been developed as a "terrace in the sky floating on the five Mikata lakes."
The view of the five Mikata lakes and Wakasa Bay from the terrace is spectacular.
At the bottom of Lake Suigetsu, one of the Mikata Goko (Five Lakes of Mikata), there is a deposit of mud called "nenkou," which has a stripe pattern like an annual ring that is about 70,000 years old,
and many tourists visit the Fukui Prefecture Nenkou Museum, which displays this mud.
The town of Wakasa has a long history, and is full of places of interest, such as ruins and tumuli from the Jomon period and Kumagawa-juku,
which once connected the Japan Sea and the Kinai region and is now designated as a national preservation district for important traditional buildings.
