The island I visited this time is "Okishima", a remote island floating in Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture.
The only inhabited island floating in a freshwater lake in Japan is said to be a rare island in the world. When you actually visit, you will find a nostalgic scenery that makes you feel like you have slipped back in time to the Showa era.
For those born in the Showa era, it was nostalgic, but for those born in Heisei and Reiwa, it was new.
And the island that used to be called "Cat Island" and had many cats, now has almost no cats. There was an unsolved reason behind it.
I spent a whole day sightseeing the main spots of Okishima.
I would be happy if you could use it as a reference for sightseeing in Okishima.
