These two fascinating days will allow not only children but adults alike to return to their childhood. The experiences that can only be had in Hamamatsu, such as interacting with magnificent nature, exquisite gourmet food made with local ingredients, musical instruments, automobiles, and cutting-edge science, are sure to deepen the bonds between family members.

The Tenryu Hamanako Railway is a local train that runs from Kakegawa Station in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture to Shinjohara Station in Kosai City.

This railway, which runs along the northern shore of Lake Hamana, is loved by locals as a leisurely train that allows you to enjoy the scenery.

36 buildings and facilities along the line are registered as national tangible cultural properties, and there are many other attractive spots nearby.

We will introduce a model itinerary for enjoying the Tenryu Hamanako Railway using a one-day pass.

The illuminations are beautiful lighting displays that brighten up winter nights and invite visitors into a fantastical world.
