“Kyoto by the Sea”「海的京都」
Check out this series of videos introducing the four seasons, local ingredients, traditional culture, and more of each unique region found in Kyoto prefecture. They are full of great travel ideas for your next trip to Kyoto prefecture
To start, here is an introduction to the “Kyoto by the Sea” region.
The region consists of seven cities: Miyazu, Maizuru, Kyotango, Ine, Yosano, Fukuchiyama, and Ayabe. Classical Japanese poets had a special admiration for this area; writing many poems and songs about the area. The spectacular coastline sees two shades of blue from sea and sky beautifully interwoven. This has made the region a popular destination in Japan for over 1000 years. A trip to "Kyoto by the Sea" will surely be a special trip. Please enjoy the video and dream of your next trip. (Video: 2 minutes)
Stay tuned for videos on the other special regions: Woodland Kyoto, Kyoto Tea Country, and Kyoto Otokuni Bamboo Grove.

這次要以動畫的方式，來向各位介紹經京都府四季各種特別的景色、食材，以及傳統文化。
八月時，由於夏天的炎熱逐漸趨緩，或是入秋以後考慮來京都府地域觀光旅遊時，也許能夠做為參考的基礎，以下以影片為大家做簡單的介紹。
首先，當然是要向大家介紹「海的京都」 。
海的京都是由宮津市、舞鶴市、京丹後市、伊根町、与謝野町、福知山市、綾部市七個都
E-bike on the Tango Peninsula Breathtaking sunset at Hamazume Yuhigaura Beach
Meet the renown sunset of the Hamazume Yuhigaura Beach! In the day, the beach has fine white sand stretching for miles and clear “Tango Blue” waters. At dusk, the setting sun showers the shoreline and waters in a golden hue, making the ocean's surface reflect like a mirror, turning the beach into a magical fantasy.
Centuries old fire festival still continues to this day!
Yoshiwara community is a special little place in Maizuru city, and every year the community gather to continue a custom established over 300 years ago - called Mandoro. Mandoro was originally established to rid jellyfish and pray for a good catch in the fishing season, but by actually experiencing this festival - you can tell it's come to really build up the community spirit.
To create this event people need to cut down the bamboo, shape it into a huge 18m structure (the size changes with the bamboo that's available) bind and shape it with rope, and finally bring the structure into the water, light the edges and leverage it to an upstanding position - then here is where the real fun starts. With the strength of all the helpers (about 20-30 boys and men) the bamboo structure is spun around and around at maximum speed. Spinning the flames means bits of firey straw fall down on the squad, so the boys on the outside continuously splash water on the people underneath the fire. The aim seems to go as fast as possible without falling down - this is a one shot activity - once the structure goes down there is no bringing it back. If it looks like it will fall, some brave soul climbs up and uses their weight to balance the structure as much as possible.
Everyone holds their breath and chants along to keep the structure upstanding and spinning. The boys in the water and the crowd, everyone is having a good time.
