Ce qui vous attend

Join the tour and visit Fukiya Furusato Village, which flourished from the 17th century through the 20th century as a mining town. It looks like a painting created with a palette of red. As for the red walls and window lattices, they are painted with pigment, which is obtained from oxidized iron as a by-product of mining. Until the late 19th century, this color pigment was unique to Fukiya Furusato Village. These earthy red tiles were the keys to prosperity for this copper mining town for 300 years. The tiles were highly coveted for their beautiful coloring, tough quality, and fire resistance, which drew travelers from all over Japan. Enjoy the elegant interior design of the Takahashi City Library, with its incredibly high wooden bookshelves, its soft lit, and its houseplants arranged to create a fresh and homely atmosphere. Drinks are allowed inside the library, but you can also sit on the 4th-floor terrace to enjoy a beautiful view of Bitchu Matsuyama Castle
