Product Info

This is a pilgrimage site for Initial D fans worldwide—the museum fully recreates the "Fujiwara Tofu Shop" scene from the movie, even displaying the original AE86 Sprinter Trueno (ハチロク), the legendary car driven by protagonist Takumi Fujiwara. The museum houses nearly 95 fully restored Showa-era cars, including rare models such as the Toyota 2000GT, Hakosuka R, and Kenmeri R, all from the museum director's private collection. Having been selected as one of "Japan's 100 Most Popular Tourist Facilities" for 23 consecutive years, this museum is well worth a visit for anime fans, car enthusiasts, and families.
Ikaho Onsen is one of the most historic hot spring resorts in the Kanto region, with its central landmark being this 365-step stone-paved staircase. Lined with century-old inns, hot spring bun shops, foot baths, and traditional stalls, a stroll along the path feels like stepping back into the Showa era. Legend has it that climbing all 365 steps brings good luck. Beautiful in all seasons, especially in autumn when the autumn leaves turn vibrant red along the steps, and at night when lanterns illuminate the path, it's a must-visit spot in Gunma for a leisurely half-day walk, and a top choice for a day trip to an onsen (hot spring) destination from Tokyo.
This ancient Zen temple, built in 1697, is the birthplace of Daruma dolls, Japan's most popular mascot for good fortune. Takasaki, Gunma Prefecture produces 80% of Japan's Daruma dolls, and Shaolinzan Daruma Temple is the spiritual origin of this tradition. The main hall is filled with various Daruma dolls, and visitors can even paint their own personalized Daruma dolls on-site, making a wish and painting the left eye according to tradition, then adding the right eye after the wish is fulfilled. The annual "Daruma City" festival, held on January 6th and 7th, is a massive event attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors from the entire Kanto region. In autumn, the mountains are ablaze with autumn leaves, and the temple atmosphere is serene and profound. Admission is free, making it one of the most direct places to experience traditional Japanese culture and receive spiritual energy.
Gunma Prefecture produces 92% of Japan's konjac, and this Konnyaku Park is Japan's only konjac-themed experiential amusement park, completely free to enter. From the transparent observation deck, you can overlook the real konjac production line, seeing everything from raw materials to finished konjac sheets, white-water noodles, and jelly desserts!
After the factory tour, you can head to the completely free konjac buffet area to sample more than 20 kinds of konjac dishes, including cold noodles, oden, sukiyaki, and various desserts.
