Miyazaki: Miyazaki Shrine and Chicken Nanban - Local Cuisine Tour of the Mythical City

A greedy city walk through Miyazaki, the mythical homeland, where you can enjoy both morning worship and local cuisine at once. At Miyazaki Shrine (宮崎神宮), which enshrines Emperor Jinmu—said to be Japan's first emperor—step on the gravel of the approach path and experience a refreshing morning visit. After previewing Hyuga mythology and Miyazaki's nature at the adjacent Miyazaki Prefectural Museum, head to Ogura for lunch, the renowned restaurant that popularized Chicken Nanban with its tartar sauce nationwide. After savoring the authentic original flavor where sweet vinegar and tartar sauce layer together, continue your sweets tour through the city center at Okashi no Hidaka Main Store, known for "Nanja Kora Daifuku," and Fruits Ono ANNEX, the parlor of a long-established fruit shop. Experience a day uniquely Miyazaki where both the tales of gods and the flavors of the people are equally celebrated.
