Day in Obuse

Short run in a Nagano covered by 10cm of snow over night, and train the morning to spend the day in Obuse. It is a charming small city known for its chestnut products, Hokusay museum and some sake brewers.
Amazing weather making it a great day to walk around. Hokusay museum was a bit disappointing: love this artist but the collection they have is really tiny.
Delicious lunch at Sensikitei with chestnut rice and then went on to try out some local chestnut products and sake! Walked to Ganshoin after that, which was also a bit disappointing.
Back in Nagano in the evening and early dinner at a soba place within the station.
Second night at the lovely Matsuya Ryokan.Read more
