    Nagano Suwa-gun Shimosuwamachi
    "A literature museum located in Shimosuwa Town, Nagano Prefecture. The museum preserves and displays materials relating to Kuniko Imai, an Araragi school woman poet who was active from the Meiji through the Showa periods; as well as ""Asuka,"" a female tanka poetry magazine she launched. The museum operates out of a remodeled Shimosuwa-shuku teahouse, Matsuya where Imai spent her childhood and later years and which was also used as the editing room for ""Asuka."" Surrounded by the restored structure, looking much as it did when originally used, visitors can come in contact with the turbulent times in which the poet lived through her manuscripts, diary, and poetry anthologies."

    旧中山道の宿場の面影を残す町屋の建物です。旦過の湯の目の前にあります。入館無料で無料休憩所としても開放されています。

Nagano Areas

Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
