You can taste Shizuoka muskmelons, a brand famous in Japan, and feel rich!
You can enjoy melon picking from July to August at Kashima Harvest in Kurematsu-cho, Nishi-ku, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It is closely located to the Kanzanji area, which is a popular place around Lake Hamana. You will pick one of the melons, which are raised in greenhouses and have a strong sweet taste, as a souvenir. After that, you can eat a cold, half-cut melon under the grapevine trellis. Various accompaniments are possible, such as pouring brandy onto the melon so it's taste will be doubled (recommended by the farm), or wrapping it sumptuously with uncured ham (please request the ham at time of reservation).
You can come here just to taste the half -cut melon. (charged / reservation needed)
