The monthly program "Kurashi no Manimani - 12 Months on the Tatami Mat" will be held on the spacious tatami floor of about 100 tatami mats, and for June, we will present a special moment to accompany the rain. Since ancient times, Japanese people have given various names to the rain and loved the moist scenery in their daily lives. This tour will take you on a journey to taste Japanese sweets nurtured by the rain and to make mizuhiki. Why don't you find a way to spend a rainy day that will make you love it even more?

In the past, the tatami mat was always at the heart of Japanese life. On the tatami, people read the seasonal breezes, savored seasonal foods, welcomed the gods, and conversed with their families. In this way, we have accumulated a flexible and rich wisdom of living our daily lives in harmony with the flow of nature. "Living with the Seasons" is a monthly Program that uses approximately 100 tatami space as its stage, allowing everyone to appreciate the four seasons together.

JR East's Shinkansen "Hakobyun" service will deliver Niigata's sasa dango (bamboo leaf-wrapped rice dumplings). Enjoy the fresh taste with the aroma of bamboo leaves, reminiscent of the early summer rain. Relax on a tatami mat and feel the atmosphere of travel, as if you're sensing the approach of rain.
