During your free time on your trip, you can make a moss terrarium and take it home with you. Why not create your own unique little moss world in a case? The plan is for a maximum of 50 minutes, but if you would like to create more, you can extend the time by 15 minutes for 300 yen. *The type of moss we provide will vary depending on the season, temperature, and humidity, so we will use 4-5 types of moss that are in good condition on the day, but we cannot specify the type, so we hope you understand this. In exchange, you will be able to use a lot of different moss.*

I want to try it with my family, but I don't need enough for the whole family. Or, I need help with the children, so I'm fine with just two people even though there are four of us. I feel that there are quite a few needs like this every day, so we will prepare enough materials to make three cases, so you can come with as many people as you like! (However, since the work space is small, the maximum number of people is about 6-7.) *If you want to do more, you can add more people on the spot. It's 2,200 yen (tax included) per person. *How about a slightly advantageous family plan? ! (Of course, it's OK even if you're not a family, and if one or two people are making three cases, this plan is cheaper!) *It's OK to book this plan for three people! However, the "cases and moss" may be slightly different from when you book the regular plan, because it is cheaper.*

In keeping with the delicate changes of the four seasons in Japan, there are materials and patterns that can only be worn for a limited period of time. Some patterns are considered auspicious, while kimonos with flowers, animals, and insects have their own meanings. Kimono is something that Japanese people are familiar with, but isn't there a lot of knowledge they don't know about it?

It is an experience of making oyaki at Kayabuki no Yakata, an inn in the valley of Shinshu. What is "oyaki"? What is it for non-Shinshu people? I'm feeling? Oyaki is made by dissolving wheat flour in water, kneading it, and wrapping bean paste made from red beans and vegetables. To put it plainly, is it a bun? ?? This is made all over Nagano prefecture, and the taste varies depending on the shop and home. At Kayabuki no Yakata, the surface is lightly baked by steaming. The skin and the bean paste inside are all handmade! It will be an experience of making such Shinshu soul food "Oyaki" with a local mother. In Shinshu, people of all ages are enjoying themselves. Rest assured that a local veteran mom will teach you carefully! If you come to Shinshu, please try this Shinshu soul food "Oyaki" first!
