・Tamahara Lavender/Lavender Garden
(July to August) Tamara Lavender Garden has the largest lavender field in Kanto, with up to 50,000 lavender plants blooming in the garden. Enjoying the summer breeze on a plateau about 1,300 meters above sea level and feeling the scent of lavender in the breeze is definitely the best way to escape the summer heat! (September to October) After September, the Tamarasu Garden will be open. There are more than 10,000 sedges in the garden, which gradually change from green to bright red, which is extremely beautiful. At the same time, you can enjoy the mountain scenery and autumn breeze on the plateau, which is comfortable and relaxing!
・Peach and apple picking experience
In addition to enjoying lunch made from fresh local ingredients, you can also experience seasonal fresh peach/apple tasting, which is delicious and satisfying!
・Kichijoji, the "Temple of Flowers"
Kichijoji in Gunma is famous for its flower views that change with the seasons, and you can enjoy unique flowers in different seasons. In addition, the heart-shaped window in the main hall is a popular check-in spot! Why not spend some relaxing time in the temple while enjoying matcha and snacks while looking out over the Japanese garden?
・Experience of picking up tofu skin
Go to the nearly 100-year-old yuba shop "Machidaya" to experience the unique yuba-scooping experience. You can also use soy sauce, salt and other seasonings, and try various dishes made with bean curd and tofu. It's delicious and fun!
