Maizuru City, a port town in northern Kyoto, is a core city of "Kyoto by the Sea" with a history of flourishing as a naval base and beautiful rias coastlines. The "Red Brick Warehouses" built in the Meiji era are now used as cultural facilities and shops, and their retro, solid atmosphere is popular with international travelers. The "Maizuru Repatriation Memorial Museum," telling the history of post-war returnees, is registered as a UNESCO Memory of the World for its prayers for peace. With fresh seafood like crab and oysters, and gourmet options like naval curry, it's a city where you can enjoy modern history, rich nature, and gastronomy simultaneously.
