UWAJIMA DEEP
TAGA-‐JINJA SHRINE So on your journeys through Japan you visit many temples and shrines and aYer a while you know what to expect. In a shrine typically a small gate called “Torii”, that marks the entrance to the sanctuary, a water basin for purificaOon and a building housing the worshipped deity, to name a few. However aYer penetraOng the Taga-‐ shrine through the li^le unsuspicious gate your head starts to spin and a mysterious new world erects in front of your eyes. You can go straight forward to the penetralia, but there is a lot to see on the way there, so take your Ome to saunter and enjoy the small shrine dedicated to Izanagi the creator of Japan. (the story how he managed it is a worthwhile read!) This deity is especially recepOve to the prayers of women. FerOlity or health related issues are his area of experOse. On your way through the shrine you will encounter objects collected around the world from different tribes and cultures, expressing human sexuality.

FISH MARKET Uwajima is a popular desOnaOon for fishing enthusiast. The waters are home to many different types of fishes and a^ract lovers of the fishing sport from around the world. To see the abundance of the Uwa sea even when you are unable to fish or had an unlucky day, there is one desOnaOon you want to visit in Uwajima. Every morning Uwajima’s fish market or Sakanaichiba is filled with treasures from the sea. There are actually two place to experience the biding process for the fish, just a short walk of about 200 meters apart. You will find a short video of the biding process on our Facebook page too.

UWAJIMA DEEP SELECTION
Fish market canteen
If you had to describe the food in the li^le canteen on the premises of the fish market the sentence “simple is best” inevitably comes into mind. The miso soup is, as it is eaten every morning, all around Japan, by millions of students and salarymen in their homes. Just moments ago the fish jumped on the chefs’ plate to be prepared for the sashimi that you can order here. The rice as pure, white and simple in taste as it is eaten since centuries by Japanese people. Enjoy your breakfast with a nice cold beer! (you are on vacaOon, aYer all!)
