Kii Peninsula Trip, Japan: Cycling in Yuasa, Wakayama

This was the last day of our trip to the Kii Peninsula. After breakfast and checking out, we returned to Yuasa Station. I knew there was a Yuasa Tourism Exchange Center next to the station, on the first floor of Yuasa Ekikura. To make the most of our time in Yuasa, I picked up some information there and inquired about new tourist attractions. I rented a bicycle to explore Yuasa when I first came here a few years ago. So this time, I suggested that we rent bicycles 🚲 again. My friends happily agreed. I didn't expect that there would be new changes to the bicycle rental service. Now, there is a service that allows you to rent a coffee camping ⛺️ set at the same time. After listening to the staff's introduction, we decided to use their service called "Odekakaffe Cycling" (Outing Coffee Cycling). This service includes bicycle rental, a choice of three kinds of coffee beans, a bottle of natural water, and a souvenir coffee cup. See Figure 18 for prices. It's a great deal. We rode our bicycles through the ancient streets of Yuasa, along the river, and after a pleasant ride, we arrived at Sakiwara Beach, one of the best places to view the sunset. While enjoying the sea view, we took a break and used the rented camping coffee maker to brew a cup of fragrant coffee ☕️ for each person. We all felt that this was a great travel experience and would sincerely recommend it to everyone. In addition, the old Yuasa Station has also changed. Inside, you can enjoy local specialties and desserts, and you can sit on the former platform and watch the trains come and go while drinking coffee. Yuasa Town, Arida District
