Many of the cultural properties dating back to that time form the core of the Japan Heritage site, “The Future Envisioned by Meiji Aristocrats: A Romantic Tale of Nasunogahara’s Land Development.” This area offers opportunities for historical journeys exploring the Japan Heritage site, as well as enjoyment of vast ranches and rural landscapes, including opportunities to interact with animals and savor farm-fresh cuisine at Senbonmatsu Ranch.
