Tadachi Washi Papermaking Experience 2024! The tradition of washi papermaking has long been passed down in the Tadachi area of Nagiso town. At one time it was an important winter side industry for farming families. Although Tadachi washi vanished for a while with the spread of Western paper, the town restored the house of Tadachi Washi in 1985 to preserve the traditional techniques and share them with many people. At the Washi House, artisans still carry on the papermaking craft today.✨ The Washi House now offers a winter-only papermaking experience! Because it uses natural materials and cold water, this is a precious experience available only in winter.👀 There are two workshop options: a postcard and a koban (oval coin) size. Why not make your own one-of-a-kind original washi paper? Period: December–March Location: Tadachi Washi House (234-2 Tadachi, Nagiso town) Inquiries: 0573-75-4910 (Washi House) ※Reservation required For details, please check the Nagiso Tourism Association website "Burari Nagiso."✨

[Farewell, fallen leaves] Squid sunny autumn day with a temperature of 5 degrees. At Korakuen, the last major task of the year was to clean up the fallen leaves that had accumulated in the pond. Wear long gloves that cover your upper arms. Wear a torso or boots on your feet and go into the pond. Holding it in your hand is a bamboo bear. Oyster fallen leaves floating on the surface of the water and fallen leaves that have sunk Put it in an onion net and collect it. Lifting from the pond to the ground is also a physically demanding task. In order to drain the water as much as possible, I used an onion net from last year. I came up with a way to put it in. The ground team is also bending down to pick up fallen leaves. Beside me, with moss and mushrooms glittering in the sun, Setoushi-kun. It was a long time of work. It was probably the first time I set foot in Korakuen since the summer. In the clear air, the gardens of Yume-eup Forest Seeing her in good spirits gave me energy. #Nishiokoppe Village #Hokkaido #Korakuen Garden #Japan Garden #Pond cleaning #Fallen leaves #Scoop and pick up #Onion net #Garden of Yume-eup Forest #Youth of the Town hall #Uncles of Forest Park #Uncle Shimokawa was also with me for one year #Thank you

I may not know the name of the hill, but witnessing the Naeba Plateau in the fall is truly a breathtaking experience. It transforms into a stunning tapestry of autumn colors, as if it were aflame with beauty. The national highway that traverses the area adds to the scene, leading one through a charming tunnel that highlights nature's grandeur. It's a wonderful reminder of how harmoniously the landscape and human elements coexist.

On the Lakeside of Lake Kawaguchi, we enjoyed the collaboration between Autumn leaves and Mt. Fuji. I was worried that this year's Autumn leaves would be affected by the intense heat, but they were dyed bright red to my surprise.

[Event: Report on the November 9 (Sat) Salt Road Walk!] Here is a report on our autumn Salt Road Walk, where participants felt history underfoot. The walk began in the Sha district at Nishina Shinmeigu Shrine. The morning started shrouded in mist, but the sky cleared into perfect blue as the day progressed. Participants enjoyed walking while gazing up at the snow-capped Northern Alps. Thank you to everyone who joined us 😍 A brief introduction: we plan to hold this event again around the same time next year. If you’re interested, please check our association website in the fall.

Hello everyone, this is the Shosenkyo Tourist Association. The autumn foliage has deepened notably over the past few days, and the colors are looking better. Yesterday the weather was clear for the first time in a while, with a wide blue sky. The contrast between the colorful mountains visible behind and around Crystal Fountain and the clear blue sky was beautiful! The peak viewing seems likely to continue through the weekend of the 23rd and 24th. You might even be able to see the autumn leaves through the end of this month. *The photos were taken on November 17, 2024.*

[The moon has risen again] Saturday, November 9 Readings by the teachers (and in the village) The curtain has been drawn. This year, following on from last year, this is the second reading of the play. The subject was "The Tale of Taketori". The outfit is old-fashioned, but the content is comical. Dare to incorporate metallic sounds and guitar tones into the sound effects, etc. It was sprinkled with gimmicks to express the worldview. In a short training period There were only a few days when everyone was able to participate in practice. It was a long 50-minute performance. I hope that the audience will stay with us until the end. It was funny, it made me laugh and cry, etc. I was glad to hear your feedback. Cast members were: Nishiokoppe Elementary School teachers, Town hall staff (this trio is Popular in some areas), And it was a high school student who saw last year's recitation play and said, "I want to come out!" At the end of the day's work I wondered what next year's recitation play would be like. I'm itching now. If you would like to appear, please contact us Anytime! #Nishiokoppe Village #Hokkaido #Teachers' Recitation Drama #Recitation Drama #Taketori Monogatari #Princess Kaguya #Aliens and Humans #Apollo 11 #Kitchen Garden #Pharos is very active again this year

I often hear that the reason why foreigners are interested in the Japanese language is "the beauty of the Japanese language. Using the calligraphy skills learned through the calligraphy experience, students write their favorite kanji characters on fans and hanging scrolls of their choice. The master calligrapher will then take the kanji back to your bag with his expert brush strokes. Since each kanji character has multiple meanings, it is important to know what other meanings they have. Knowing the meaning will make the bag shine.

Good morning! 😆 This is Shosencat, the mascot of the Shosenkyo Tourist Association, with an update on the current autumn leaves. The photos were taken yesterday, Saturday, November 16. The fall colors seem about one week to ten days behind schedule. 😲 You might be able to see the leaves through around November 23–24. 🤔 If the weather cooperates and the maples hold up, the colors could last beyond that. 😲 I’ll let you know again! We’ll be waiting for you at Shosenkyo!!
