始発で自宅を出発し、大田原市内を2時間半くらいポタリングした後、福島市へ移動。ちょうどいい休み時間という感じでした。とはいえ、都心部から福島までは5時間近い移動時間なので、残り時間は結構少ない感じです。あまり、当てもないので、そんな時はグーグルマップに聞いてみる。神社やお寺が好きなのは、大きな寺社はだいたいいいロケーションにあるからです。
福島駅→御倉邸→福島稲荷神社→文知摺観音→福島駅（14.2㎞、滞在時間1時間50分）
とりあえず土地勘がないので、福島駅で写真を撮った後、散策マップやらを参照して御倉邸へ。歴史的な価値というよりは、阿武隈川を借景とした庭園がきれいです。その後、稲荷神社に立ち寄り、文知摺観音へ。時間があれば、信夫山公園と思いましたが、時間が足りず、福島駅へ。かなりショートタイムでしたが、また来たいなと思います。福島市には花見山、飯坂温泉、吾妻山など何度も来たことがありますが、駅近辺の市街地は散策するには広すぎますし、車で移動するには渋滞やら駐車場やら面倒なのですが、自転車だと気軽に回れます。逆に福島市は広いので郊外へは車が欲しくなりますね。
I left my home on the first train, pottered around Otawara city for about two and a half hours, and then moved to Fukushima city. It felt like a good break. However, since it takes about 5 hours to travel from the city center to Fukushima, it feels like there is not much time left. I don't know much about it, so I'll ask Google Maps at times like that. I like shrines and temples because big temples and shrines are usually in good locations.
Fukushima Station → Okura House → Fukushima Inari Shrine → Mochizuri Kannon → Fukushima Station (14.2 km, stay time 1 hour 50 minutes)
For the time being, I have no familiarity with the area, so after taking pictures at Fukushima Station, I referred to a walking map and went to Mikura-tei. Rather than historical value, the garden with the Abukuma River as a borrowed scenery is beautiful. After that, stop by Inari Shrine and go to Mochizuri Kannon. If I had the time, I thought I would go to Shinobuyama Park, but I didn't have enough time, so I went to Fukushima Station. It was a very short time, but I would like to come again. I've been to Fukushima City many times, such as Hanamiyama, Iizaka Onsen, and Azumayama, but the city area around the station is too large to walk around, and it's troublesome to travel by car because of traffic jams and parking lots. However, you can easily get around by bicycle. On the other hand, Fukushima city is large, so you will want a car to go to the suburbs.
