プランの魅力 Herbal tea from Haruharu Farm on the mountaintop の画像

Herbal tea from Haruharu Farm on the mountaintop We took a break and enjoyed some herbal tea made from the popular Kuromoji plant, harvested from the local mountains. It was so delicious I cried. The gratitude for the power of the mountains permeated my entire body.

プランの魅力 If you walk around this cedar seven times, any wish will come true. の画像

If you walk around this cedar seven times, any wish will come true. It is said that if you can hold your breath and circle the cedar tree seven times, your wishes will come true. No matter how hard you try, three laps is the limit. Please give it your best shot.
