We bring you the charm of Asuka and Fujiwara with the motto of “fun and easy to understand.”

Born and raised in Nara. My father is the second son of a tangerine farmer in Asuka Village. After working as a nursery school teacher, I got married and had a child, and then I became passionate about creating plays that both children and adults could enjoy with my friends. While staying at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, I rediscovered the charm of my hometown and started working as a guide. I bring you the charm of Asuka Fujiwara, where the drama of nation-building and the changing seasons of nature blend together, with my motto of “fun and easy to understand.”

Recommended spots in Asuka

Iwafune in Masuda! No matter how many times I visit, I’m always astonished by the sheer presence of this massive rock that suddenly appears in the mountains. There’s a strong theory that it’s a failed stone sarcophagus for a burial mound prepared for Empress Saimei, an Asuka period empress, but what is the truth? This boulder in the mountains is a joy to imagine.
