Good to know
- In Kinosaki, walk between the seven public baths in a yukata and geta sandals. Most ryokan lend a yukata for the street.
- Winter is crab season on this coast, and many Kinosaki ryokan serve crab dinners.
- In Izushi, sara soba comes in several small Izushi-ware plates. Locals count how many plates they can finish.
