placeholder.jpg

A cultural experience program exploring the origins of Unzen, "Road to UNZEN," has been launched.

The journey begins at Shirakumo Pond, which has maintained its tranquility for over 100 years.

A guide will lead you on a walk through the forest, unraveling the history of life and culture from the time when this area flourished as a summer resort for foreigners.

Enjoy a special time experiencing the "aesthetics of tranquility" nurtured by this land through a BBQ lunch featuring local vegetables and a tea ceremony led by a Japanese tea instructor residing in Unzen.

In the afternoon, we'll visit some of Japan's oldest golf courses and classic hotels, experiencing a story where architecture and history intertwine.

As a relaxed, premium journey where nature, culture, food, and architecture are seamlessly connected, it's ideal for inbound tourism products.
