【Continue to protect with Bushido spirit】 Tsumago-juku, where the townscape from the Sengoku period remains intact, has come to be known as the Samurai Road among foreign tourists. This area strictly adheres to the three principles of ``Do not sell, do not lend, and do not destroy.'' Bushido was inherited even by modern people. They are also samurai. 【武士道精神で守続け】 戦国時代の町並みがそのまま残る妻籠宿は、外国人観光客の間でサムライの道と呼ばれるように。 この一帯は「売らない・貸さない・こわさない」の3原則を徹底して守っています。 現代人にも武士道は引き継がれていた。 彼らも侍である。

A Relaxing Stop at the Burari Café The reservation-only Burari Café On Sunday, October 15th, Burari Café opened with an instructor offering finger yoga and hand massages! Tomiyo prepared lunch, and while enjoying the delicious aromas, I tried a hand massage. Stiffness had built up on the backs of my hands and fingertips, and as it loosened, my hands seemed to move more smoothly. After my hands warmed up, I savored a lunch featuring ingredients from Nishiokoppe. The corn rice, mixed with a touch of butter, was superb. I couldn’t join the finger yoga session this time, but I hope to find another chance to try it. It was a comfortable space where I could chat leisurely with other participants.

Hello to everyone watching Cool Japan Video!
This is the Iwanai Tourism Association.
We bring you travel and event information about Iwanai-cho, Hokkaido, facing the Sea of Japan.

For our first post, we’ll introduce Iwanai-cho and its sightseeing spots!

Iwanai-cho sits on Hokkaido’s west coast and is famous as the birthplace of asparagus.
The town’s name is said to come from the Ainu words iwau meaning sulfur and nai meaning river.

The population is 11,173 (as of the end of August, Reiwa 5). Because it faces the Sea of Japan, winters are severe, but it is relatively mild compared with other parts of Hokkaido.
Average summer temperatures reach around 25°C, with highs near 32°C.
Winter brings snowy scenery that is perfect for skiing and snowboarding.

Iwanai-cho pumps up deep seawater from the Sea of Japan and uses it in local industry.
At the Iwanai Deep Sea Water Facility (the local industry support center) in town, residents and visitors can purchase deep seawater.
This mineral-rich deep seawater is also excellent for cooking.

Iwanai-cho offers stunning natural surroundings and historical sites where you can enjoy a wonderful time.
Here are some of Iwanai-cho’s most attractive sightseeing spots!

Along the Doudou Iwanai Port Line, Roadside Station Iwanai and the product information center Taramaru-kan provide tourist information about Iwanai-cho.
Please use them as a reference for sightseeing. Local specialties such as tarako and kazunoko, plus taramaru goods, are also on sale.

Kikoin Temple lets you experience Japanese culture and is the oldest temple in Iwanai-cho.
Its wooden Buddha, entirely covered in gold leaf and standing 6.8 meters high, is designated Iwanai Town Tangible Cultural Property No. 1 and is truly impressive.
Kikoin is about a 10-minute walk from Roadside Station Iwanai.

Maruyama Observatory, at the foot of Mount Iwanai, is a recognized Japan Nightscape Heritage site and a must-see attraction.
It’s beautiful by day, and the sunset and night views are especially recommended.
You get a panoramic view over Iwanai-cho and the Kaitan Peninsula.

Iwanai also hosts the Kida Kinjiro Museum of Art, dedicated to Nihonga painter Kinjiro Kida, who spent his life here.
Enjoy Kida’s works arranged by period.
The museum also stages exhibitions by other artists and concerts.

Outdoor fans can enjoy hiking, camping, and many nature-rich spots.

Next to it stands Mt. Raiden at 1,211 m.
In spring, alpine plants color the slopes, offering a delightful trail experience surrounded by nature.

Karasu no Pan-ya San at Nishiokoppe Village The picture book "Karasu no Pan-ya San" Have you all read it? To celebrate the 50th anniversary of its publication a "Satoshi Kako Reproduction Original Art Exhibition" was held at Komu Museum of Art and on September 24 during the exhibition period bread making from the picture book took place. Following the illustrations, participants tore off portions of pre-fermented dough, rounded them, and shaped them. When the baked bread arrived children peered in with excited faces to see how the bread they made had turned out. Finally, they drew patterns with chocolate pens and it was complete! The two who made the saw-shaped bread and the daikon-shaped bread let me take a collaborative photo with them!^^! After the event I quietly let my imagination run wild, wondering, "What sort of bread shape would make people happy?"
