What to expect

Shirahige Shrine Shirahige Shrine is a popular spot on Instagram, where a vibrant red torii gate stands tall above Lake Biwa, creating a strong visual contrast. It is a sacred place full of spiritual energy and great photographic beauty.

Lake Biwa Terrace Enjoy the scenic Lake Biwa Terrace from an altitude of 1,100 meters, offering a magnificent and expansive view of Lake Biwa. It is an excellent spot to admire the beauty of nature.

Ukimidō Ukimidō is built on the surface of Lake Biwa and connected to the land by a wooden bridge. It appears to “float” on the water, hence its name. Inside the hall, a thousand Buddha statues are enshrined, symbolizing prayers for safe transportation on the lake and the well-being of all beings.

La Collina Omihachiman The CLUB HARIE baumkuchen here is renowned as one of the best baumkuchen in Japan. Behind the park, there are many charming art installations, such as small wooden doors only half a person’s height and domed earthen houses. Every corner is a perfect spot for photos.

This ancient shrine, with over 1900 years of history, is the most sacred symbol of Shiga Prefecture. The vermilion torii gate, standing in the lake, quietly bears witness to the passage of countless years.

Take the cable car directly to the mountaintop at an elevation of 1100 meters, which is the best spot to overlook the magnificent panoramic view of Lake Biwa.

Standing on the terrace, beneath your feet is the "Biwako Blue" that merges with the sky. A gentle breeze caresses your face, and the clouds seem within reach. This expansive feeling of walking among the clouds leaves every visitor who has experienced it

Enjoy the beautiful scenery where the sea meets the sky.

A fairy tale and dessert forest under a grass-roofed house, designed by renowned architect Terunobu Fujimori, integrates the famous dessert brands "Taneya" and "Club Harie" into the natural landscape.

The most iconic "thatched roof" buildings change from emerald green to golden yellow with the changing seasons, blending in with the mountains behind them.
