This event began with the hope of using the cold climate and nature of the Suwa region to purify Lake Suwa and revitalize the community. It now marks its 31st year.

With participation from residents of six cities and towns, the motto is “Let’s create it together! Let’s light it together! Let’s connect with the town!” as we aim to build towns and people who love their local area. While showcasing and sharing the charms of the Suwa region, about 20,000 lights will connect towns and people to convey the spirit of the Suwa Country Winter Thanksgiving.

Let’s create it together! Let’s light it together! Let’s connect with the town!

Come spend an evening in the magical Suwa region for one night only.

Wakamasu Bakery 🥖 @wakamasu_bakery (Instagram) A beloved shop frequented by regulars, I visited Wakamasu Bakery. The bakery has run for three generations from the founder to the current owner, moving from the original Ina shop to Suwa, and has continued for 99 years! Today, the owner and her father bake the bread together 🍞 Wakamasu began in Ina in the great-grandfather’s time, and the shop is linked to Nagano’s soul food, the gyūnyū pan (milk bread)!!! Pop-up signs in the shop explain the products and highlight their commitment to domestic wheat and sudakito (sudaki sugar), a mineral-rich sugar made from 100% cane. Their beloved “Milk Ball” is famous, and many regulars come just for it 🥖 ・A long-time favorite, the soft French-style roll filled with milk cream: the Milk Ball ・Owner’s pick: Cream Bread filled generously with homemade custard cream ・A recent hit: Croque Monsieur with homemade béchamel sauce, ham, and cheese ・Four kinds of sandwiches and two kinds of savory baked breads are available. ◎ Wakamasu Bakery 📍 4-11-10 Kogan Street, Suwa City ☎ 0266-52-3488 ◎ Business hours: 8:00 – 16:00 ◎ Business days: Thursday, Friday, Saturday ◎ Homepage: https://www.instagram.com/wakamasu_bakery/ Regular customers are hooked on Wakamasu Bakery’s Milk Ball!
