Tour Points
Starry Night Tour
The biggest attraction is its magnificent star-filled skies viewed from the highlands at an elevation of 1,400m. In 2006, the Star Watching Network operated by Japan’s Ministry of the Environment selected Achi as the No. 1 place where you can see the stars shine brightest.
The Heavenly Paradise night tour is held amid the rich natural beauty of Fujimidai Kogen Heavens Sonohara. There is a ropeway which travels a total distance of 2,500m with a 600m change in elevation in about 15 minutes, where you can enjoy the view of the starry sky from an altitude of 1,400m. On the mountaintop beyond the reach of the city lights, the countless twinkling stars look close enough to reach out and touch, presenting a spectacle you could never see in the city.
Magomejuku
The Magome area of Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture is located almost in the center of Japan, at the southern tip of the Central Southern Alps, and is an area where you can enjoy the rural landscape of rice paddies and mountain forests spread out on sloping terrain.
