    塩尻観光の際に再訪しました。 古田晁(”ふるたあきら”)の生家の庭園と土蔵を塩尻市が寄付を受け記念館として一般開放している記念館。 数多くの著名な作家が逗留した土蔵2階は、3部屋の和室が再現されている。襖にある山の金色景や掛け軸、勾配のある渡り廊下などはなかなかの見ごたえ。

Nagano Areas

Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
