長野[軽井沢・小諸]（Nagano[Karuizawa・Komoro]）2017.Feb

I went to Karuizawa and around there.  I stayed there one night two days.

It took 1hour and 15minutes to go to Kauizawa from Tokyo by Shinkansen ( fast train). Karuizawa is very popular in summer because of cool and comfortable weather. So, there are only people for ski and snow board. I don’t do both but I wanted to enjoy hot spring.

I enjoyed shopping in Kasruizawa. there is a huge shopping outlet mall.(Karuizawa Prince Outlet Shopping Plaza) . I bought a jeans in Armani Outlet and nit in Tommorow Land.

After shopping, I went to the hotel which I booked a few days ago. The  hotel is Nakadanasou(中棚荘）. The hotel has long history. It was established about a hundred ago.

I went to the hotel by train which is Shinano Tetsudou(しなの鉄道). I got off at Komoro Station. (小諸駅). It took 20minutes from Karuizawa station. The hotel was a little far from the station. I took a taxi. But it took just 5minutes.

Nakadasou was so nice. there are two establishments. I stayed at Taishoukan  which is older. There is no bath room and toilet  in rooms.( There are public toilets.) The hotel’s hot spring was so nice. Apples was soaked in the bath.( Nagano is famous for apple.) Outside hot spring was also nice. I could see many stars from bath.

The restaurant was also so good. All foods are very delicious and Sake was good. Clerks are very decent and provide good services.

I waked up early morning to take a bath once again. Morng hot spring let me feel better. Break fast was also gorgeous.

I went to Komoro castle. There were no castle any more, but are park and heritages. There aren’t many objects to be seen, but it is quiet and nice view.

I went to Harekulani near Naka Karuizawa. There are many shops, a hot spring, restaurant managed by Hoshino Resort. I ate lunch there. It was delicious but a little expensive. I wanted to see rock church, but I couldn’t see it because it held wedding. I backed to Karuizawa by bus managed by Hoshino Resort, which was complimentary.

I spend time on shopping in the outlet malls again. I bought a jacket at Bottega Veneta. After that I backed to Tokyo. There were no vacant seats in Shinkansen. So I had to be standing all time in Shinkansen. It was too hard…
