Takayama Chikurin-en (Takayama Bamboo Garden and Museum). - Ikoma

A good place for hiking trails ~? You can enjoy handmade tours and delicious matcha (set 500 yen) in the historical town (chasen onset)!

It is a bamboo forest garden in Ikoma city. You can use it free of charge except for eating and drinking and experiencing. Parking is also free. Pets are basically okay except indoors. As a matter of course, good manners such as processing manure and attaching leads. I went to the light-up event "Takayama Bamboo Akari" which is held on Saturday and Sunday of the second week of October every year. When we arrive after 17:30 on Sunday, October 10, 2021, The parking lot of Chikurinen is already full. The guards guided me to the temporary parking lot (about 7 minutes on foot) of "Takayama Hachimangu". It was full and I parked at "Takayama Children's Garden" (a 12-minute walk). In addition, for the reverse lane, there was a temporary parking lot in the "Okita Community Center" (building notation is "Okita Autonomous Hall"), which is about a 4-minute walk, and in the "Okita Annex" on Google. Illuminated arrows were set up at the turning points to make it easier to find the way to the temporary parking lot. A free shuttle bus (limited to events) from the south exit of Ikoma Station via Gakken-Kita Ikoma Station was also operated, although the number was small. Although it was an outdoor event, we thoroughly implemented alcohol-based hand hygiene, body temperature measurement, and wearing masks for visitors at the entrance. Light up bamboo tubes and glass containers with candles. The Takayama district of Ikoma City has a 90% share of the national production of tea sen. There were also bamboo objects that were inspired by tea ceremony. You can also experience making tea by yourself using a tea ceremony (charged) even when it is not lit up. It's only a two-day event, but I think it's a must-visit event.

The specialty is "Takayama Soft Cream" ? It's a Japanese favorite taste to eat with okaki ❗️ You can experience a tea ceremony in the garden, take a walk while picking up acorns while feeling nature, searching for insects ……… Children can also play while feeling nature. There is also Takayama Komorebi Hill nearby, and you can feel the warmth of the trees ❗️ Events include "Takayama Bamboo Akari" and "Takayama Komorebi City".

Because the evaluation was good I tried to come Each person has their own sweat I am the only customer. Two people at the reception You are here. I'm wondering where to go A place that seems to appear in the garden If you find it and proceed It seems to be an off-limits place The receptionist I flew. I saw you're lost, bitter smile If you enter a bad place It seems to be a guide only to be careful. There seems to be no place to see I decided to go home.

At first glance, it is a place where there is no shortage of Japanese scenery with beautiful bamboo. It will be fun to take pictures. You can experience making matcha yourself in the facility, but I was able to spend a very quiet and rich time while looking at the Japanese garden. The number of buses is unexpectedly large, so there is no problem with unexpected access.
