The Tabayama Tourism Promotion Organization (Tambayama Village) in Yamanashi Prefecture has launched a project called "Wolfship Design" that utilizes the village symbol "wolf", and is working to disseminate information about the community with "wolf" by selling crafts, releasing picture book reading videos by popular voice actors, and planning to publish a picture book next year.

Tambayama Village is located in the upper reaches of the Tama River, on the border between Yamanashi Prefecture and Tokyo, and is the smallest village in the Kanto region. The project began when a wolf was placed in a komainu dog at the Nanatsuishi Shrine (rebuilt in 2018), which was passed down as the guardian deity of the village. The village is working on content production and dissemination with the "wolf" as a symbol of the village.

 

In the design of the leather craft "Inden" in Koshu, we created an original Inden with the motif of "wolf". Since October, we have been selling "wolf and salt coin purse, black lacquer and white lacquer version" (price 10,000 yen each) on the hometown tax payment site. The name salt is derived from the fact that salt has been handed down as a favorite food of wolves. Produced by "Inden no Yamamoto" (Kofu City).

"Wolf Picture Book" (drawn by Mai Tamagawa), which is set in the mountains at night, asks popular voice actress "Amamiya Ten" to read aloud a picture book video. Currently, the reading video of the first half of the work, Tambayama Village's official tourism website "Tabayama Navi" (The Wolf's Story) and Youtube Videos It is published at.

 

The Nanatsuishi Shrine is named after the seven large rocks that were incarnated by seven servants of the Heian clan "Heishomon". It is located near the summit of Mt. Nanatsuishi at an altitude of 757m. There are many points in the mountains where you can see Mt. Fuji, and trekking is popular.

The Tabayama Tourism Promotion Organization said, "After the release of the video reading of the wolf picture book (first half), there was a positive response from inside and outside the village. We hope to announce it in January next year, along with a full video recording." I say.
