"Hiroshima CAT STREET VIEW Onomichi" is a service that allows you to experience the charm of the back alleys of Hiroshima prefecture from the perspective of a cat. The "Kubo" area released this time is an area where you can enjoy the atmosphere of a time-slip to the Showa era, with many izakaya and other shops lined up. On the other hand, the "Misode Tenmangu" area is a famous spot for movie locations, where you can see beautiful scenery below when you climb the 55 stone steps.

As a result of continuing to look at Street View to find all the cats, I almost memorized what kind of store there was. The next time I visit Onomichi, I feel like I can walk around the city without a map. However, you may not know the way unless you walk with your eyes down considerably.

This is a cat's point of view.
