    This “Hidden Gem” might be a hidden artisan Japanese workshop tucked away in an alley, open only to regulars, or perhaps a retro-style café nestled in a second-floor old building, filled with Showa-era charm and the aroma of hand-brewed coffee. It's not a spot you'll find in any travel guide, but it just might become your most unforgettable stop.

    ※In case of strong winds, the Mt. Moiwa Ropeway may be closed for safety reasons.
