[Manshu] This price for 2 people! An old private house in the castle town of Iwamura. How about renting and dressing in a retro kimono? (Reservation required)
This is a calm castle town where people still live today. Feel the elegance and forget your busy daily life in a room in a spacious and quiet old house. This is the location of the film "The Father of the Milky Way Railroad", which was released in May 2023. The Manmoku Shoten shop also appears in the film. The scene in the second-hand bookstore in "Yakusho Koji-san" was filmed at this inn. You can get to the Iwamura Castle site on foot or by car. Please come and imagine what kind of battles took place here. There aren't as many tourists as in other tourist destinations, so you can enjoy the castle town life all to yourself. Iwamura fans continue to come. After 4 pm, you will be surprised by the calm and quiet atmosphere. When you walk along the main street at night, you will see a row of lanterns that look like paper lanterns, which is very magical. On the day of the "summer solstice", the sunset falls straight down the street, and you can see a very beautiful scene. (Depending on the weather, it's around 6:30 pm for about a week around mid-June every year) We also operate a retro kimono rental and dressing service in this building. If you'd like to wear a kimono, please make a reservation. There is a discounted rate for guests staying at the accommodation. There is also a backyard and a storehouse at the back of the building, so you might feel like a ninja (^-^)
