The Reason Why You Should Visit Karuizawa, Nagano Prefecture🇯🇵

There are reasons why you should visit Karuizawa!
1. Cooler than main cities (It's located in the place approx.1,000 meters (3,281 feet) above sea level, surrounded by mountains)
2. About 1hr away from TOKYO by Bullet Train. (1h 12m by 'ASAMA', costs 6,020 yen/one way)
3. The townscape of Karuizawa is beautiful!! (Mainly features green and brown tones, due the landscape ordinances.
　
【Please be aware about...】
1.Karuizawa is a popular destination in the Summer, I strongly recommend avoiding busy timing (Weekend, national holiday)
2.It's a resort rather than 'touristy' place, so there aren't many 'exciting touristy spots'.It's more about leisurely enjoying its natural atmosphere while visiting several scenic spots.
3.Recommended way of transportation is 'Cycling', or mixture of Bus/train/taxi/walk
