Offering a one-of-a-kind local experience program in "Kyoto by the Sea"|Traditional Crafts, Hunting, Local Beer, Trails
In the northern area of Kyoto Prefecture, commonly known as "Kyoto by the Sea," four experience programs that make use of unique local resources will be offered from 2023. Applications for each program are still being accepted at the "Kyoto DMO of the Sea". (Photo: Hike on an ancient road where the legend of the demon remains)
The hands-on program was developed using local resources such as traditional crafts, hunting, local beer, and trails. Since it is an inbound plan, the experience fee is high in the range of 80,000 yen ~ 130,000 yen, but we take our time to provide a unique experience value. For details, please refer to the introduction site.
「 TRACE THE TANGO UA Stool をたどる旅 In the Yosano Town area of Tango Island, participants will learn about the behind the scenes of the production of the UA Stool, a new concept chair developed in collaboration with a custom-made furniture manufacturer, and Tango Chirimen, which is manufactured by a clothing manufacturer founded in the early Meiji era, and participants themselves will experience the production of a welcome board.
「 Introduction to the hunting life of Kanzajitoku 2 nights 3 days In "The Hunt Farmhouse," you will stay at a farmhouse in the woods, go into the mountains with a hunter, and experience the hunting life itself, from capturing to dismantling beasts.
「 Regional Revitalization Beer Artisan College Under the guidance of a master who has won awards in international craft beer competitions for 10 consecutive years, we offer a short-term intensive course at Tango Brewery to learn everything from craft beer production to opening a business.
「 Oni trail 古道ハイクと雲海 E-bike Ride 1 Night 2 Days is set on an ancient road of about 100 km that runs from the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture to the Sea of Japan. Hike and e-bike along a 15-kilometre stretch of old trails steeped in demon legends for beginners, and soak up nature and history.
Reservations for the experience program can be made by e-mail from the official website of Kyoto DMO by the Sea. Payment can be made by card in advance or cash on site. You can also use the "Kyoto Coin of the Sea" electronic gift certificate issued immediately by using the travel destination tax payment that can be applied for with your smartphone.
In 2013, Kyoto Prefecture began branding the northern area, which has a different regional character from the popular Kyoto City, as "Kyoto by the Sea." Currently, we are marketing it as a travel destination that avoids overtourism in Kyoto City.
DMO Kyoto said, "The program was released around this time last year and is still being accepted, and I think it will be a memory of a lifetime, even if it is expensive. I want people to visit Kyoto by the sea, where they can avoid congestion."
