And the "flying mud boat" that is hung by a cable and floats in the air. Near Suwa Taisha Shrine in Chino City, there is a strange building that you will never forget once you see it. Its true identity is the tea room of Terunobu Fujimori, an architect known worldwide for his original architecture. With special permission from Dr. Fujimori, this is a special program only for a trip where you can make tea by putting it inside the "tea room" that you can't normally enter. Along with an English-speaking guide, first of all, I went around the Suwa Taisha Maemiya, which is the origin of Mr. Fujimori's idea, and realized the "feelings for nature" that are constantly transmitted to this area. Then, after visiting the first building built by Professor Fujimori, "Jinchokan Moriya Historical Museum," we will climb the "Flying Mud Boat" and "Takasugi-an" to see the inside. In addition, you can experience making matcha while being taught by a local teahouse in "Hikusugi-an". 5 minutes by taxi from JR Chino Station. ～ Flow of the day ～ ① Worship at Suwa Taisha Maemiya: Tour started.

The guide will guide you inside and explain. 1) Climb the ladder to the inside of the "flying mud boat". 2) Climb the ladder to the inside of "Takasugi-an". 3) To the inside of the pitch-black "Hikusugi-an". After experiencing the darkness for a while, I opened the roof. I feel the brightness of the sky. ⑤ Tea experience: In Hikusugi-an, entertain with a simple “Matcha experience” by a local tea shop.
