Springtime Sakura Tour

Tajima no Kura has a clear open space, and was made to look like a Kura (a Japanese warehouse, with thick walls, used to store valuables during natural disasters). A wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables are delivered by local farmers on the daily. There is also a restaurant area with the fragrant smell of wood, where visitors can enjoy popular items including seasonal okowa (mixed rice) and obanzai (traditional style of Japanese cooking native to Kyoto) as well as many dishes that include local specialty foods including Jamongan rice, and Yoka Pork. Visitors may also enjoy the ashiyu (foot bath) to rid of the travel fatigue.

Hasamaji Satoyama Forest Park has 3 golf courses and features beautiful Sakura trees that you can enjoy while playing golf with friends. Rental materials are also available, and perfect for easily enjoying a game or two. Outside of the course is a community center, and a multipurpose park (includes playground equipment as well as a bathroom).

Tarumi no Oozakura is the largest Edhigan Cherry Blossom Tree in Hyogo Prefecture and is established as one of Japan's natural monuments. Scaling a height of 13.8 meters with a trunk circumference of 6.3 meters, it has been said that the tree is over 1000 years old. A long time ago the princess of the Izushi Feudal clan visited the famous tree, and since then it has been called Sen Sakura ("sen" meaning enlightened) by the locals.
