Shirakabe Warehouses, Kurayoshi-shi (From JR Kurayoshi Station: 12 mins by Hinomaru or Nikko bus Shinai Line, from Shirakabe-Dozogun-Mae bus stop: immediate access.), ☎ 0858-22-1200. The warehouses that line this street comprise some of the oldest buildings in the area, dating back to the Edo and early Meiji periods. Shops specializing in sake, oil, rice, or soy sauce once formed a prosperous shopping district, and the old-style buildings with white plastered walls, black wall panels, and red tiled roofs give an authentic glimpse back into old Japan. Many of these buildings have since been remodeled on the inside to offer regional crafts and souvenirs. You can also try soy sauce ice cream and specialty coffees here. �
