In the oldest books in Japan, the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki, it is written that the two ancestral gods Izanagi and Izanami created the land of Japan from Awaji Island, so it is called the "Island of Creation".

We will walk along the Izanagi Rock and mountain paths to visit megaliths such as Izanami Rock, which are not listed on tourist maps.

You can also look at the spectacular view and lie down on the megaliths, and feel the romance of the creation myths and ancient times while listening to the guide's deep and deep mythological mystery solving stories like Bura Tamori.

Why not go and discover the lost history of this town that flourished as a post town on the road during the Edo period? Kyohei Tamura, our guide for this Snow Country Retreat, majored in history in college and is a big fan of the Sengoku period. He fell in love with the history of the Mimata region. Although it is not famous, there are anecdotes that allow you to feel the breath of the people of the Edo period, and stories of the head of a family that lived in the village from its early days and continued to protect the oldest wakihonjin that still exists on the Mikuni Kaido road. Let's trace the history together, which is full of emotion that cannot be conveyed by words alone. Nowadays, the area is famous for its ski resorts, but the lives of the people who have been living here since the Edo period are the backbone of how it got to where it is today. There are things that become clear when you focus on the lives of the people who lived and continued to live strong lives despite being tossed about by the flow of history. It's not just skiing, but you can feel the charm of this mountain village. Although it is a "history retreat," no specialized knowledge is required. We will guide you not only through historical facts but also the feelings of the people at that time.
