"This summer vacation, create unforgettable memories here." Enjoy the breathtaking rice terraces overlooking the sea and feel the pleasant sweat. What awaits after is freshly cooked "new rice" and juicy BBQ…!

Thank you for always following the posts from the Amakusa Reihoku Tourist Association! Today, we have an announcement for a special event that you absolutely must experience this summer✨

The seedlings we planted together in spring have soaked up the blessings of the sun and are finally ready for the golden harvest.
This is not just a farming activity. Harvesting rice while feeling the refreshing summer breeze and the blue sea before your eyes offers an emotion that cannot be experienced in the city.
Moreover! After working up a sweat, enjoy the freshly harvested "new rice" in this stunning setting. Let’s have the best lunch time with sizzling meat and vegetables on the grill🤤

[Activity Report] We held a rice planting monitoring tour at the Sky Terraced Rice Fields in Reihoku on April 19th.🧑‍🌾

Hello everyone, this is the Amakusa Reihoku Tourist Association.

On Sunday, April 19th, we conducted the "Reihoku Sky Terraced Rice Fields Rice Planting Monitoring Tour."
Although it was a light rain on the day, working in the fog-shrouded, magical rice terraces provided a deep and tranquil experience, different from sunny days.

■Experience the abundant "daily life of farmers"
During this tour, participants not only planted rice but also harvested fresh asparagus and experienced shiitake mushroom inoculation.
🌾Rice Planting: Enjoying the feel of the cold mud, step by step. Planting seedlings in the fog allowed for a pleasant concentration.
Asparagus Harvest: Picking the fresh asparagus on-site. The joy of harvesting blew away the fatigue of work.
🍄‍🟫Shiitake Inoculation: The sound of tapping on the wood echoed in the rainy rice terraces. We also experienced this long-lasting job while thinking about the harvest.

■Lunch time accompanied by the "sound of rain"
We enjoyed our lunch under the roof, with the sound of rain as our background music.

We will take the feedback from this monitoring tour to gradually implement various experience menus.
Thank you very much to everyone who participated, especially in the rain!
