This farm cultivates bamboo, chestnuts, and other crops using eco-friendly farming methods.

The 24-hectare bamboo forest is a rare sight even in Japan.

After paying the entrance fee and receiving a briefing, you'll enter the viewing area.

Once inside, a chestnut orchard spreads out before you reach the Madake area.

This is the filming location for the Ito En "Oi Ocha" commercial.

The Moso Bamboo area was the filming location for "Rurouni Kenshin."

The Golden Moso Bamboo area is extremely rare.
The nodes are alternatingly swollen, forming a shell-like shape.

Surrounded by a bamboo forest as far as the eye can see, along the way you'll find a cafe, playground equipment, and a bamboo lantern display.
