The ruins of Shichi Castle are said to have once been the castle of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's military strategist Kuroda Kanbei and Kato Yoshiaki, one of the Seven Spears of Shizugatake. The representative of the "Society for Preserving Shichi Castle," which is dedicated to preserving the castle every day, will guide you through this precious historic site, which was an important base for the Awaji Navy under Hideyoshi. Located in Shichi, Minami Awaji City, near the Seto Inland Sea and the Naruto Strait, Shichi Castle is said to have been built by Suga Izuminokami Michitada during the Kamakura period, and was surrendered in 1581 when Toyotomi Hideyoshi attacked Awaji. After that, it was guarded by his vassal Kuroda Kanbei (Kuroda Yoshitaka), and from 1585, Kato Yoshiaki, one of the Seven Spears of Shizugatake, became the lord of the castle. The Awaji Navy, which had Shichi Castle as one of its bases, achieved great success in Hideyoshi's conquests of Kyushu, Odawara, and Korea, and there is no doubt that Awaji Island and Shichi Castle were important naval bases for Hideyoshi. However, the valuable historical site where Kuroda Kanbei and Kato Yoshiaki once lived has been swallowed up by bamboo forests in recent years and is on the verge of being forgotten by local residents. At that time, the local volunteers "Shichi Castle Preservation Society" stood up, worried that the valuable remains would disappear if things continued like this. In order to let many people, not just the locals, know about the Shichi Castle ruins and to pass on the story to future generations, they have been clearing the bamboo forest every day for about five years, and have been carrying out maintenance activities such as installing entrance roads and signs. This is a tour of the Shichi Castle ruins guided by Mr. Sekiguchi, the representative of the "Shichi Castle Preservation Society" who has a stronger passion for Shichi Castle than anyone else! The Shichi Castle ruins are currently being maintained, and recently wells and stones that are thought to be old stupas from that time have been discovered one after another.

The owner, who is also a certified old house appraiser, will guide you through the house and explain the traditional techniques that are difficult to reproduce today, the design that highlights the playfulness of the craftsmen, and the immeasurable historical and cultural value. After the tour, Shunyoso will quickly transform into a sweets shop. Enjoy an elegant moment with tea and Japanese sweets in an elegant space. Shunyoso is a masterpiece of modern Japanese architecture that was designed in 1941 by architect Toyoen Yamamoto, an authority on the study of home orientation, based on the ideas of feng shui, and was completed over a period of seven years by local carpenter Sankichi Saito and others. Further on, in 1983, the walls, gateposts, doors and gardens were renovated by architect Izue Hiroshi, who was even called a "master" by the famous architect Kurokawa Kisho, and they now harmonize beautifully to create a magnificent architectural landscape. The vast grounds of 1320m2 (approximately 1,400m2) contain eight buildings, including the guest house, storehouse, reception hall, sleeping hall and permanent residence, and in 2004 it was designated as a nationally registered tangible cultural property, and in 2017 it was designated as an important structure for the formation of the Hyogo Prefectural Landscape. However, with the aging of the population and a social trend in recent years that only pursues efficiency, it became difficult for the previous owner to maintain and manage the buildings, and they gradually deteriorated, leading to a long period of time when the gates were closed. The turning point came in 2015. In order to preserve this precious cultural asset for future generations, the fourth-generation owner purchased it and began repairs and renovations. Finally, in October 2016, Shunyo-so was revived and reborn as a new international tourist resource for Awaji Island. In this experience program, the owner himself will guide you through the house, explaining the charms of the house, such as the traditional techniques that are difficult to reproduce today, the building materials that are also difficult to obtain today, the designs that highlight the playfulness of the craftsmen scattered throughout, and the elegant furnishings, based on the historical background of Shunyo-so.

Daisuke Michigami, a roofer who has inherited the family business (president of Daiei Ceramics), continues to take on the "indefatigable challenge" of unraveling the "wisdom," "skills," and "teachings" of his predecessors that are embedded in each and every "Awaji tile," a traditional industry that has a history of 400 years, and passing them on to the future. What is the reason for continuing to take on new challenges? We will get to the bottom of the secret. Daisuke Michigami, a roofer, will talk about the charm of "tiles" created by the soil of Awaji over time, the thoughts he puts into making each and every tile, the scenery created by the layers of "tiles," and his commitment to the "beauty" of Japanese architecture, all at "Gallery Doza," a space completely wrapped in soil and tiles. Awaji tiles were hit hard by the unfounded rumor that "the damage caused by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake was so great because the roofs were tiled." Even in an environment where the survival of Awaji tiles is still in doubt, Michigami has found great potential in "Ginfurubi" (tiles that are new yet somehow nostalgic, baked to a vintage, antique texture), and has been bringing out new charms of Awaji tiles that are different from anything that has come before. Now that his thoughts have taken shape, tiles are connecting people with each other, and Japan's good old traditional beauty is being reevaluated. Tile maker Michigami Daisuke's "insatiable challenge" will continue. After listening to his story, you can enjoy a space surrounded by earth and tiles that you would never believe is inside a tile factory, a view of the townscape that has flourished due to tile production since the Edo period, and Michigami's passion for "beauty" at "Gallery Doza," where you can feel Michigami's passion for "beauty." You can pretend to be a tile craftsman and try making your own "one-of-a-kind tile coaster," one of the new possibilities of tiles. You can choose from a variety of Japanese pattern designs that are prepared in advance, as well as original designs. Try making a rich work full of your sensibility.

Wild red sea bream caught at Maruyama Fishing Port, overlooking the Onaruto Bridge, is famous as a representative sea bream of Awaji Island, and has a history of being presented to the Emperor in four eras from the Taisho era to the Reiwa era. Two generations of fishermen who know the Naruto Strait inside and out will guide you while fishing for wild red sea bream in a fishing ground with an excellent location overlooking the Onaruto Bridge. Board a fishing boat with a fisherman who knows the fishing ground inside and set off to fish for wild red sea bream! Instead of relying on a fish finder, they look at the direction of the mountains and cast their nets. This fishing method, called Gochiami fishing, is said to be difficult to catch unless you are an experienced fisherman, as the net is cast at a pinpoint while identifying the tide. This fishing method involves creating an encircling shape with an oval net and tugs tied to both ends, which narrows the net to intimidate and drive the fish into the net, where they are caught by getting entangled in the mesh. While catching fish, the fishermen will demonstrate and explain how to "release the air" from the swim bladders, which are inflated by the difference in water pressure, to keep the fish fresh, and the different types of fish. Usually, fishing by casting and pulling the net is done several times a day, but on this tour, you will only see it once or twice. After that, they will return to port and land the fish. You can see up close the craftsmanship of reading the tides and casting the net to the right spot without waste. You can also purchase the fish caught on the day of the experience. ■Experience Schedule10:00 Gathering (This may change depending on the tides on the day.
