Konnyaku Park
Making up for 90% of production in Japan, Gunma Prefecture is one of the most famous producers of konnyaku. It’s also home to a konnyaku specialty park, a veritable “mecca” for konnyaku lovers.
I had no idea there were so many different ways to enjoy konnyaku until I visited here.

Bettei Senjyuan
Bettei Senjyuan is a famous inn, surrounded by the serene silence of the valley with a view of Mt. Tanigawa. By incorporating traditional Japanese designs alongside modern architecture, they create a unique and luxurious atmosphere.
The autumn scenery here is absolutely stunning. If I get the chance, I’ll definitely visit again.
