Hike around beautiful rice terraces above the clouds
About a 45-minute drive through gorgeous mountain scenery from Ino Station, you will find the Tsuganotani rice terraces.
These man-made terraces were originally built in the Nara period (AD 710-794)!
The terraces have a 200m difference in elevation, which is higher than the main deck of Tokyo Tower! Since they are located in the middle of a mountain, you can see clouds and other peaks at eye-level. It feels like you are standing on rice terraces floating in the sky
You can feel the dedications and craft of the people who lived there 1300 years ago and the power of nature in the lush green and clouds
