Everyone recommended "Songpu Store" and we rented bicycles.
Rented a bicycle at the recommended "Songpu Store" and started today's "Patchwork Road" cycling. This cycling route usually takes 3-4 hours.
Compared to yesterday's ultra-wide-angle road, there are many buses on this patchwork road, so be careful when cycling.
This patchwork road is also called the "Biei Famous Tree Pilgrimage Road". Most of the attractions along the way are trees that appear in various advertisements and TV dramas in Japan. The main attractions include Zerubu Hill, Ken & Mary's Tree, Seven Star Tree, Parent-Child Tree, Northwest Hill Observation Park, Mild Seven Hill, and so on.
Planned route: Biei Station - Hokusei no Oka Observation Park - Ken and Mary Tree - Seven Star Tree (Biei Wheat Field) - Parent-Child Tree - Biei Station.
Biei Station - Hokusei no Oka Observation Park - Ken and Mary's Tree - Seven Star Tree (Biei Wheat Field) - Parent and Child Tree - Biei Station
First stop, Beisei Hill Observation Park. From the iconic pyramid observation deck, you can see the hills of Biei and the Daisetsuzan mountain range. Across from the observation deck, there is a small shop selling snacks and agricultural products. We bought some fruit corn that can be eaten raw and soft and sweet Hami melon, which tasted really good.
Trees along the way, one after another. Actually, these trees are not particularly special, and most of the time they cannot be distinguished from each other from a distance. However, among the vast fields, looking at these quiet trees is especially healing. The beauty of the patchwork road is more about the pure rural scenery along the way, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Picked up the luggage and took a taxi to Prince Hotel New Furano, which includes dinner. The dinner is just a regular buffet.
Prince Hotel in Shin Furano is very popular in Japan, but it's not as impressive for us. The cost performance is not high, so we don't recommend it.
The hotel includes a buffet dinner. After dinner, take a stroll on the elf terrace next to the hotel. Each delicate craft shop is like a kingdom of elves under the night lights.
