🇯🇵Behind the scenes of Japanese tourism, have you ever heard of monitor tours? It’s pretty common here in Japan!
📍Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture- I think it could be a big tourist draw after some time! A small, budding art scene, good food, and great access to mountains!
🏩 Shiroiya Hotel is a wonderful boutique art+architecture hotel with a lovely local story. And the restaurant was superb. Short coming soon! https://www.shiroiya.com/en/
🍳 Kanafull Kitchen, the teacher was such an amazing teacher! She’s been teaching for many years! If you’d like to cook with her, you can reach out to her directly. https://www.kanafull.com
🍶Kawakatsura Sake Brewery isn’t offering tours yet, but they do sell their sake. They have a shop, or you might be able to find it at sake shops
