The concept of the station is \"vortex excitement,\" and visitors can experience the fun of visiting attractions like the tidal currents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In front of the 360\u00b0 Sanrokumaru with a spectacular view is the Naruto whirlpools, one of the world's three major tidal currents. The dynamic view of the ocean and Onaruto Bridge, which changes its expression depending on the time of day, is so powerful that you will want to take a picture of it. On a clear day, you can even see as far as Shikoku Island, making it one of the best viewpoints on Awaji Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, there are many gourmet restaurants such as \"Awajishima Burger,\" which won first and second place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix, \"Irori Shokudo Uzushio\" where you can enjoy Awaji's seafood, and \"Awajishima Milk Stand + (plus)\" which boasts of its rich soft-serve ice cream. The area is packed with attractions that make it a destination rather than a stopover!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h0dbbfee597\"><strong>Popular products at Roadside Station Uzushio<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommended for dining are the premium versions of the Awajishima Onion Beef Burger (first place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix in 2013) and the Onion Gratin Burger (second place in the Gotochi Burger Grand Prix in 2014) from Awajishima Burger. The Onion Beef Burger Premium keeps the 8mm thick Awaji Island onion cutlet, but adds a juicy Awaji beef patty! The Onion Gratin Burger Premium adds a juicy chicken patty and grilled onions for a full volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in sweets, check out the Awajishima Milk Stand + (plus)! In addition to the original milk soft serve at Uzushio Roadside Station, \"This is An Balance - Dobon in a cup when you eat it\" is also recommended for Japanese sweets lovers with the perfect balance of anko (red bean paste) and soft serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the \"Shop Uzunokuni\" at Michi no Eki Uzushio offers a wide variety of limited-edition products that can only be found here! The number of items is as many as 120, making it a great place to look for souvenirs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th colspan=\"2\">Roadside Station Uzushio Basic Information<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>address (e.g. of house)<\/td><td>947-22, Fukura Hei, Minami-Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>phone<\/td><td>0799-52-1157<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Business Hours<\/td><td>9:00-17:00 (varies by facility and service)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>business holiday<\/td><td>Thursdays (open if Thursday is a national holiday), maintenance holidays (3 days in mid-December), December 31, January 1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Access<\/td><td>5 minutes drive from Awajishimaminami IC of Kobe-Awaji-Naruto Expressway<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Charge<\/td><td>Free Admission<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Official Site<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><a href=\"https:\/\/newt.net\/jpn\/hyogo\/mag-1288026454\">https:\/\/newt.net\/jpn\/hyogo\/mag-1288026454<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dear Editorial Staff<br>Thank you for introducing us in your wonderful article!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Details of Roadside Station Uzushio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-photo_frame\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/eki.uzunokuni.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/9999-1.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p><strong><span class=\"swl-inline-color has-swl-main-color\">Roadside Station Uzushio<\/span><\/strong><br><br>Roadside Station Uzushio, 947-22, Fukura Hei, Minami-Awaji City, Hyogo 656-0503, Japan<br><br>Closed on Thursdays<br>Open on holidays when the regular closing day is a national holiday.<br>*Maintenance closed for 3 days in mid-December.<br>*Closed on December 31 and January 1 every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Number of parking spaces: 102 cars (including 4 spaces for disabled persons)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>INSTAGRAM:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/michinoekiuzushio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@michinoekiuzushio<\/a><br>X:<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/uzunokuni_awaji\">@uzunokuni_awaji<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Renewal in 2025!
