Taiza Crabs in The Ryokan
A basket of Taiza crabs from the days catch are presented to you at the ryokan just a few minutes walk from the sea. These crabs are very sought after at this time of year and are a real treat. They are presented in different ways throughout an evening meal. Shabu shabu, Tempura, sashimi etc. A real delicacy.
Tango - Walk Through A Coastal Town
A short walk around the rocks and you will see the small bay area of Tango - Fisherman's boats sit on the shore with nets and crab baskets. Despite rain, wind and very low light my GR managed to capture a few moments before the light was gone.
The Sea Of Japan
Walking by the Sea of Japan in Tango (North Kyoto Prefecture). A tiny little town that has the feeling its sleeping in a bygone era. Tiny houses and traditional Japanese Ryokan Inns line the narrow streets. Taiza Kani crabs can be found in the sea and are indigenous to this place - They can only be caught in November and December and as such are very sought after.
