Take the Nagano Electric Railway from Nagano Station to Obuse Station. It takes about 30 minutes. From the station, we headed to our inn, Masuichi Kyakuden. It was about a 10-minute walk. At the inn, we received a voucher for Suzaku, a freshly picked autumn treat made from pureed, unsweetened chestnuts topped with chestnut paste. This is a special treat for guests, available only from September 10th to October 16th. We enjoyed a special table on the second floor of the Ichimura family's main residence, Obusedo Honten. There was no time limit, so we leisurely enjoyed Suzaku while enjoying refills of roasted green tea. It was absolutely delicious! After checking in at Masuichi Kyakuden, we were treated to a welcome dessert of Kariyama, a pureed chestnut and bean paste confection. It was elegant and delicious. Masuichi Kyakuden offers drink service until 7pm, and we ordered Obuse apple juice as room service.

Dinner is only available to guests staying overnight, and is only available with a dinner plan that includes dinner. We enjoyed a dinner that truly immersed us in autumn, with dishes like pureed chestnuts topped with lily root and other ingredients, chestnut tempura, chestnut rice, Shinshu pork, and autumnal mushroom dishes.

Obuse milk and Obuse yogurt were also offered as part of the course. Guests at Masuichi Kyakuden can participate in Obusedo's pop-up event at any time. Normally, this is only available when eating Suzaku. At this pop-up event, we had chestnut shaved ice, which was also delicious! After checking out of the inn at 12 o'clock, we wandered around the chestnut confectionery shops. There were several, including one selling fresh chestnuts. And in autumn, grapes are also popular. Shinano Purple and Muscat grapes were sold everywhere. Obuse also has grape fields. Afterward, we enjoyed chestnut oshiruko (sweet red bean soup) at Sakurai Kanseido. We then bought a bunch of autumn delicacies, including chestnut yokan (sweet bean jelly), fresh chestnuts, grapes, and apple jam, before hopping on the train to Nagano Station. We ate soba noodles with walnut sauce at a soba restaurant called Kusabue near the station, then took the 5:00 PM bus home.

Obuse is a town of chestnuts. This time, I went on a running trip to see Obuse and take part in a half marathon. It's a very enjoyable event and I recommend it. We didn't compete for speed, and the lunch consisted of ice cream, matcha, gelato, etc. We enjoyed the scenery, food, and costumes in the town of Obuse. We visited the Hokusai Museum and bought chestnut yokan as a souvenir. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to visit the wine cellar this time. It's a town that you'll want to visit in various seasons, such as grape harvest season and autumn foliage season. In autumn, it might be nice to go around eating chestnut desserts.

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip At Obusedo, a famous shop in Obuse Town, Nagano Prefecture, we tried the autumn-only specialty Suzaku. This luxurious dish uses plenty of chestnuts, and the moment I put it in my mouth, I was impressed by how it melted softly in my mouth. The sweetness of the chestnuts spread gently, and it was a happy time as if I was tasting autumn as it is. It's no wonder that they have numbered tickets in the morning! This is a must-try dish for chestnut lovers. The luxury of tasting the chestnuts themselves, the soft melting in your mouth, and the delicate taste that brings out the best of the ingredients...it's impressive. Available for only about a month. No wonder people line up in the morning to get numbered tickets! This is a must-try dish for chestnut lovers. 💰Price per person: 1,800 yen 📍Location: 808 Obuse Town, Kamitakai District, Nagano Prefecture #Sweets #Nagano #ChestnutSweets

I'd like to introduce you to the soba restaurant "Nama Soba Asahi-ya" that I stopped by when I went to Obuse Town, Nagano Prefecture to visit Obuse Winery. Their specialty is hand-made noodles, which were smooth and easy to swallow rather than firm and chewy!! The amount of noodles was quite large, so I ate enough soba✨ I think this is the perfect restaurant for those who want to eat a lot♪ It seems that there are people from locals to tourists, and some people were waiting outside...! 🍜Spot name: Nama Soba Asahi-ya 📍Location: 981 Obuse, Obuse Town, Kamitakai District, Nagano Prefecture 🕰️Business hours: 11:00-15:00 *Closed on Fridays #0 yen travel #Nagano #Nagano sightseeing

#cherryblossom25 Ganshoin Temple blew me away with how quiet and artful it felt during cherry blossom season. It's famous for the ceiling painting of a giant phoenix by Kano Yasunobu, but outside, the temple gardens steal the show when the sakura are in bloom. Mossy stones, a gentle pond, and delicate pink trees — it’s like walking through a perfectly composed painting. I loved how the temple embraces imperfection and stillness; everything felt slow, natural, and full of meaning. My #cherryblossom25 post focused on a fallen sakura petal floating on the pond, with the temple softly blurred behind — simple but packed with emotion. If you want an artistic, introspective cherry blossom experience instead of a flashy one, Ganshoin is pure poetry.

#Spring0yenTrip Obuse, about 30 minutes by train from Nagano Station, is a beautiful town where history and nature coexist in harmony. Walking through the town, you can feel a sense of nostalgia as you see the rows of traditional townhouses and small shops.

The beautiful scenery of the surrounding countryside and mountains was also impressive, making it the perfect place for a leisurely stroll. Obuse was a town that enriched the soul, where you could enjoy art and nature in a historical atmosphere.
