▲ Shiraito Waterfall With a drop of about 3 meters and a width of 70-100 meters, the waterfall is formed by spring water from Mount Asama flowing gently down the rock face like white silk ribbons, crystal clear and transparent.
▲ Harunire Terrace The name originates from the elm trees that grow in clusters here. Wooden walkways have been constructed, with over ten shops scattered throughout, including specialty cafes, fine dining restaurants, and handmade goods stores.
▲ Stone Church The Stone Church is constructed with alternating layers of stone and glass, featuring no traditional cross. With the natural view as its backdrop, it embodies the concept of "harmony with nature."
▲ Plateau Church Originally a venue for discussing liberal ideas and art, Plateau Church later became a Christian church.
▲ Kumoba Pond The pond is filled with crystal-clear spring water from Mount Asama, surrounded by birch and maple trees. Locals regard it as a healing "back garden of Karuizawa" for mind and body.
▲ Yazaki Park Just a short drive from Kumoba Pond, the area around the pond features a scenic 1 km walking path. In early summer, the lush green leaves contrast beautifully with the blue sky, while in late autumn, the vibrant red foliage creates a picturesque reflection on the water's surface.
