Pedal kagoshima 

Cycling to visit the charm of Satsuma's green tea and Satsuma ware. We will visit a tea house run by a tea farmer and a Satsuma ware kiln.
 
 
 
When I visited the tea room, I saw flowers blooming in the adjacent tea field. The first time I saw tea flowers, they were so pretty.
 
 
 
Cycling through the rice fields along the Kawauchi River is a very flat and enjoyable cycling experience. While enjoying the beautiful river view, I found a tea house that caught my attention. This is a very nice tea dormitory run directly by tea farmers.
 
川内川に沿って田んぼのサイクリング、とてもフラットで楽しサイクリングです。美しい川の眺めを楽しんでいると、とても気になる茶寮を見つけました。茶農家が直接運営されるとても素敵な茶寮でした。
 
 
Satsuma ware from the Shinjukan kiln in Miyama, Hioki City. This is a masterpiece that enhances the tea culture of the Satsuma domain.
