Spring in Saku, Nagano

Explore a city called Saku in the countryside of Nagano located in the center of Japan. This mountainous region holds many wonders and anyone wishing to travel or live here can discover different attractions depending on the time of year.

One attraction I've failed to mention is the proliferation of sake breweries which have been around for centuries. One place is 400 years old. That place accepts guests who want to learn how to brew their own sake the traditional way.

If you wish to find these places or discover more exciting areas in Saku, Komoro, Karuizawa, and other surrounding places, you can access my Google Map here - https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edi...

I've included some places to get food in Karuizawa in case you are on a budget as the restaurants there can be pricey.

Spring in Japan begins in March and lasts until June. I've also created videos about Saku in Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
