Nagano’s Achi Village—once certified by Japan’s Ministry of the Environment as the clearest starry sky in the country—offers breathtaking views thanks to its high altitude, clean air, and complete lack of artificial light. Board a gondola to the mountaintop at 1,400 meters for the Starry Sky Night Tour. During the viewing session, all lights are turned off, revealing a sky full of stars so close, it feels like you could touch them. A truly magical experience you won’t find in the city.

Included: Starry Sky Lantern Kit (with LED light and batteries) No glue, scissors, or cutters needed – safe and easy to assemble!
Korankei
- Legend has it that a monk planted the first maple trees here during the Edo period. Today, Korankei is considered one of Japan’s top autumn foliage spots, with around 4,000 maple trees painting the landscape in vibrant hues. Visitors can stroll along the scenic Asuke River and explore charming old streets reminiscent of historic inns. With 11 varieties of maple trees, you can enjoy comparing the unique shapes and colors of their leaves.
Obara Shikizakura
- Shikizakura is a rare type of cherry tree that blooms twice a year—once in spring and again in autumn. The Obara area is known for its stunning “red and white” scenery, where fiery autumn leaves and delicate cherry blossoms bloom side by side. With around 10,000 Shikizakura trees planted throughout the area, it offers one of Japan’s most breathtaking seasonal views.
