    Located on the site of the Yomeishu Komagane factory, this rest space allows visitors to hear the babble of the water flowing from the Chuo Alps (Kiso Mountains) and hear the chirping of the birds. Peonies bloom every year from the end of May until the beginning of June, and a peony potpourri-making event is held. There are many other seasonal events as well. Along with factory tours, visitors can also enjoy strolling through the forest and by the river that runs through it. It’s about 15 minutes by car from the Chuo Expressway Komagatake Interchange.

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.
