Located close to the roadside station Kawaba Denen Plaza,
Gunma's representative flower temple
You can enjoy the flowers of the four seasons.
Pay the spring/summer fee at the viewing area, and head towards the temple gate to hear the sound of wind chimes rustling in the wind (seasonal).
On the right is the bell tower and hydrangea flower chozu, and from the corridor of the main hall you can see the Shoryu Falls and Seiryu Falls in the Garyu Garden.
As it is called the temple of flowers, the grounds are filled with a variety of flowers.
In the main hall, a reflector is placed on the inome window, and on top are dried flowers, making it a more Instagram-worthy spot.
The Rokujizo statues, which have become a hot topic on social media.
The way they stand on the moss is soothing.
There are many spots in the grounds where you can stroll around while worshiping, making it a temple you'll want to visit in the spring, summer, fall, and winter.

1st place in the National Roadside Station Grand Prix for two consecutive years! !
Spacious grounds full of greenery
Farmers market, bakery, meat workshop...
Blueberry Park
Blueberries can be harvested from early July!
Wow, it's free!
This roadside station is very popular with children, with its large playground equipment and Tarzan ropes adjacent to the park.
We had lunch at a soba restaurant on the premises.
We enjoyed delicious soba noodles while enjoying the view from our window seat.
There are many workshops, and I recommend this milk workshop.
The yogurt made from raw milk from cows raised at the foot of Mt. Hotaka was really delicious.
You can also buy this product online, so be sure to check it out!
And the cheese here is also excellent!!
I bought mozzarella and ricotta, and they were fresh, with a natural sweetness and saltiness.
I also recommend the apple pie and pudding!!

The hotel is very good.
After returning from the zoo, we stayed at Kawabaonsen Hotel. The hotel is very beautiful. The way to the room is by electric train + monorail. It is very advanced. The children are very excited. You have to book in advance because there are only 20 rooms. The onsen is very good and clean. The bedrooms are spacious. Our family focuses on sleeping a lot because we have many children and the children like to sleep with their mothers. The mother takes turns lulling the children to sleep.
During our trip, the weather was very cold, about 1 degree Celsius to below zero. It was so awesome. Oh my!
Note: The room was booked by the guide who is Japanese.
Note: If you pass by, don't forget to buy some yogurt and beer. They are very delicious.
Spring Escape to Tia Tree – Apple Pie in Nature’s Embrace
#aprilblooms
If you’re craving a peaceful cafe experience surrounded by lush greenery, Tia Tree in Kawaba Village, Gunma, is the perfect spring getaway. Nestled in the heart of nature, this cozy spot offers a relaxing escape from city life. I ordered their famous apple pie, and let me tell you—it was heavenly! Warm, flaky, and perfectly sweet, it paired wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee.
You can sit on the terrace, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and listen to the sounds of nature as you enjoy your treat. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay for hours, doing absolutely nothing except relaxing.
Why You Should Visit:
✔ Gorgeous natural setting—perfect for a chill cafe break.
✔ Delicious homemade apple pie that’s worth the trip alone.
📍Address: 〒378-0102 Gunma, Tone District, Kawaba Village, Kawabayubara 2453-3

Autumn leaves, Kichijoji, Gunma
[Kawaba Village, Gunma Prefecture]
Today we will be introducing Kichijoji, a flower temple located in Kawaba Village, a famous spot every year during the autumn foliage season.
The photo was taken in November of last year, but by this time the plants had already been covered in winter protection to protect them from the winter snow.
Inside the temple, we were able to enjoy matcha tea and even got an owl fortune.
It's gotten cold early this year, so we'd like to visit other autumn foliage spots so we don't miss out on the season.
[Kanto] Favorite Roadside Station No. 1 for 5 consecutive years
Kawaba Denen Plaza, Gunma Prefecture
A roadside station where you can spend the whole day
Soba noodles, local beer, pizza, bakery, sausages, yogurt, soft serve ice cream, rice balls, and of course, farm-fresh produce!
It seems you can also try pottery.
You'll want to buy lots of souvenirs to take home!
