Hamura-shi

1 hour from Tokyo. A city of flowers, green spaces, and water. The Hamura weir is a famous site for cherry blossoms. This is the source of the Tamagawa Aqueduct. Negarami-mae-suiden(paddy field) has blooming tulips in the spring and oga lotus flowers in the summer. Hamura Jinja overlooks the city. Enjoy a walk through Tama.

After a good night's sleep, the next day, we went to a unique cafe in Okutama City, 'Ichiro san's Café’, to enjoy a moment of relaxation.

As soon as we entered, the strong aroma of coffee hit our half-awake brains. It was so fragrant that we wanted to taste it quickly (laughs).

The store is brimming with a variety of exquisite and unique decorations, including cute grass mud horse dolls and interesting Lucky Cat ornaments. The best way to describe the ambiance is 'dizzying'.

Venturing further inside, there is an indoor space that features a glass lighting design and an old coal-fired stove, radiating a hint of warmth in the late autumn. We relaxed by the fire, read some books, had a meal, and took many beautiful photos.

It only took about a moment (less than fifteen minutes to be exact), and we arrived at the Hamura City Animal Park. Looking at those little animals, they were so cute!

The point is: we spent an afternoon playing with the geranium rats and the newborn chicks. It was very simple and relaxing, but very happy afternoon.

This place should be very suitable for couples' dates and family activities. Lastly, we stopped by to visit the nearby steam train. Okutama Station. Lastly, we stopped by to visit the nearby steam locomotive.
