Takimi Dango is easy to find near the entrance of Gembi Gorge. When you enter the store, you can see a clerk cutting a dango with a thread.
Of course you can also eat there. The weather was fine on this day, so I took out 5colors dango.
It has plenty of 5 kinds of sauces, isobe, walnut, sesame, zunda, bean paste. It’s flat and big compared to normal. The taste is chewy and delicious.
The beautiful view created by nature spreads out in Genbikei Groge. so this dumplings eaten while watching this view are more delicious.
I ate Takimi Dango and I was satisfied with my heart and stomach.
