An old but beautiful city of Japan

in #photography7 years ago

Sharing some photos of my Father's hometown Shima City in Mie Prefecture Japan. It’s an old but beautiful city that only has 50,000 local residents. I still haven't been there, but I'm planning on going around June next year 🇯🇵

It is located on the southern half of Shima Peninsula Mie Prefecture facing Ise Bay of the Pacific Ocean. The city has two inlets: Matoya Bay and Ago Bay. Matoya Bay is famous for oyster cultivation and Ago Bay is famous for pearl cultivation.
