Nearby we also have beaches, hot springs and a national forest.

Kabuki
A rare experience, even for native Japanese, kabuki is possibly the most dramatic form of traditional Japanese theater- drawing its name from a term meaning "bizarre" or "out of the ordinary"
Jyunsai Picking
Junsai is a kind of waterweed found in ponds with good water quality. Although the plant has long been eaten, it now only grows in limited regions because of changes in the surrounding environment.
