Detail of Aburaya | Heart of Japan

This year's Setsubun(3rd Feb.), a rock door opens in the land of dragon legends.

Mrs. & Mr. Hayashi (Hana and Jiro) moved this small village Obara from Big city Kyoto on Spring 2019.

They became owner of Aburaya and new member of villager.

Local people really welcome Hana & Jiro joining.

But they can't understand why move this countryside. because here are no shop, nobody younger people, nobody kids, no public transportation, no famous sightseeing spot, no restaurant....

Here are mediocre nature only, It increase vacant house, elementary school has been empty for the last six years.　Yes, almost local people focus on negative factors.

But Hana-san and Jiro-san can see many wonderful factors in this village. They felt the power in this land and this house.　They have positive eye to find out a treasure. They repaired and cleaned this house by their own, made Japanese garden with moss.

We believe Aburaya guest house will be healing spot and power spot for you.
