Why is Karuizawa drop dead beautiful?

Getting there: Karuizawa is just one hour by Shinkansen or 3 hours by car from Tokyo station. Karuizawa is a beautiful mountainous area in Nagano and is recognized as one of the most popular summer retreats in Japan. But even in winter, it is super beautiful in terms of the surrounding nature environments and the awesome experience from driving, staying in modern hotels like Hoshino Resorts, Harvest Club Karuizawa or Prince Hotel, outdoor activities, dining in Harunire Terrace (by the way French fine dining using local ingredients are cool), having hotel onsen in front of a snowy mountain and then sipping chill Karuizawa brewed craft beer, enjoying the reading time and picture taking time in The Karuizawa Picturebook Museum, touring the local art gallery with kids. You would feel like you are in the fairytale world. #家族旅行 #軽井沢 #karuizawa #nagono #familytrip
