Yudanaka and Shibu Hot Springs Area 【Applicable Plan Nos. YS01–07】
Yudanaka-Shibu Hot Spring Village is a historic hot spring town stretching at the foot of Shiga Kogen in Nagano Prefecture. Its charming retro cobblestone streets and the “hot spring circuit” featuring nine public bathhouses are popular attractions. At the hot spring inns, you can enjoy the natural flowing spring water, and footbaths and souvenir shops are scattered throughout. Nearby, you can observe monkeys bathing in the hot springs at Jigokudani Monkey Park, offering diverse pleasures throughout the seasons.
National Treasure: Zenkoji Temple【Applicable Plan No. YS01, YS03, YS06】
Zenkō-ji Temple, enshrining the One-Light Trinity Amida Buddha statue said to be Japan's oldest Buddhist image, boasts a history of approximately 1,400 years since its founding. As a temple for the common people, welcoming all without distinction regardless of sect, it attracts numerous visitors from both Japan and abroad.
Takano Tatsuyuki Memorial Museum【Applicable Plans No.YS03,YS04,YS06,YS07】
This site stands on the former grounds of Nagata Elementary School, successor to Nagae School and Nagata Elementary School where Tatsuyuki Takano once studied and taught. A small stream flows through the grounds, where a bronze statue of Tatsuyuki stands. Inside the museum, exhibits include letters Tatsuyuki wrote to his father, the Elementary School Reader he helped compile, and the Elementary School Songbook. The organ in the music room is open for anyone to play, with sheet music for songs like “Spring Brook” provided.
Togakushi Shrine Chuusha【Applicable Plans No.YS01,YS02,YS05 】
Among the five shrines, this is the Togakushi Shrine Chuusha. Within its grounds stand a sacred tree over 700 years old and three cedar trees each over 800 years old, and it houses the administrative office of Togakushi Shrine.
Kagami Pond【Applicable Plans No. YS01, YS02, YS05】
The landscape, reflecting the Togakushi mountain range like a mirror, is truly spectacular.
Hokusai Museum【Applicable Plan No. YS04, YS07】
The Katsushika Hokusai Museum.
Established based on original paintings, sketches, and letters created in Obuse, where he spent his later years.
Here, we exhibit one-of-a-kind pieces such as hanging scrolls, folding screens, and original paintings—distinct from the woodblock-printed nishiki-e.
No two works are alike, making this a precious spot where you can feel the very breath of Hokusai's creativity up close.
Shiozaki Main Store [Applicable Plans No. YS03, YS06]
Established in 1877, this long-established shop is beloved for its traditional Japanese sweets and approachable Western-style confections. Its lineup includes popular signature sweets like the “Nakayama Shinpei Monaka,” whose taste has remained unchanged for 40 years.
