5 things to do in Karuizawa - Your Japan
Another article I wrote for Your Japan introducing 5 things to do in Karuizawa. Karuizawa is a place full of nature and luxurious resorts and villas. It makes for a romantic couples getaway and also has enough fun things to do for a trip with family or friends.
One of those, “looks like something from Studio Ghibli” jobs.

One winter a few years back we were lucky enough to be able to pay a visit to Zenkoji Temple in the city of Nagano.
The temple complex veritably sprawls and is the kind of place you could spend an entire day at, and then some.
While it’s understandable that people will be drawn the temple’s Niomon gate and Honden, “main hall,” - maybe in search of the key to paradise - we can’t resist a good pagoda, and Zenkoji has a belter!
These pics are of the pagoda housing the Zenkoji History Museum, in relative terms, a fairly new addition to the Zenkoji precincts.
