🌿Let's escape the summer heat in Nagano!
Walk through a dreamy "Mononoke Forest," then watch the sun set over Lake Suwa (the real-life inspiration for Lake Itomori in Your Name). And explore Suwa, which truly feels like a hidden gem, with its historic post-town charm, ancient Zen gardens, and sacred shrines.

Hope you enjoy wandering along with us! 🍧
