Fall in love with the retro details of Kure

One of the things that makes Kure such a charming small town is the retro details. The vivid sign welcoming you to the over 100-year-old Kure Taishomachi Ichiba Market, a small sign with old-school font for a local kissaten (cafe') around the corner, vintage advertisements for various brands like Kikkoman soy sauce or Kewpie mayonnaise hung across an outdoor garage, the rotating red, white and blue of a barber pole…and more!

As soon as you start wandering through Kure’s narrow, meandering paths, you’re sure to find these retro gems that’ll make you want to stop and snap a photo!

Definitely let us know what other retro details you find when you visit
