Saigomatsu

There is no pine.

Original Text

I searched for which Saigomatsu is, but it's no longer there. Saigomatsu Senbei is hand-grilled and sold at the shop there. I saw the product in various places, but it is the cheapest to buy it there.

There's no pine!

Original Text

It is where Saigo Takamori arrived at Amami Oshima. Pine trees were planted here, but they are not now. For the time being, there is a small monument, so I think I'll stop by, but if I don't care, I think I'll pass through without noticing it.

Unfortunately the pine trees have died and there are no more, but there are monuments and small shops. At the shop, I bought a handmade rice cracker with vertebra called "Saigo Matsu Senbei" as a souvenir.

"Saigo Matsu" that tied the rope of the ship

Original Text

Takamori Saigo, who was ordered to hide in Amami Oshima Island, went to Tatsugo Town, about 400 kilometers away from Kagoshima. At that time, the pine tree that tied the rope of the ship was called "Saigo Matsu", but now it has died. The wooden statues of Mr. Saigo and Mr. Aikana made from cut pine trees are located in the lifelong learning center "Ryugakukan" in Tatsugo Town.

Amami Oshima is also famous as the place where Saigo Takamori was washed away, and the pine trees that tied the ships that arrived in Amami remained as Saigo pine trees, but since they have died in recent years, there are no pine trees now. It remains only as a famous place and there are souvenirs and souvenirs.
