Cuisine Inn Tagoto

Located in the historic Nanokamachi district of Aizu-Wakamatsu, Ryori Ryokan Tagoto has been a cherished stop for travelers for nearly 100 years. Originally a traditional lodging along the old Echigo, Yonezawa, and Shimotsuke (Nikko) highways, the inn still retains a "Resting Stone" at its entrance—a spot where weary travelers once paused, offering a glimpse into the past.

Tagoto is renowned for its seasonal kaiseki cuisine, made with the finest ingredients from Aizu, as well as its signature "Wappa-Meshi" rice dish. These meals are popular among locals, visitors from afar, and even famous personalities.

Guests are welcomed with warm hospitality, enjoying exquisite dishes in the refined atmosphere of this historic ryokan.

Ride the Oza-Toro-Tembo Train

The Oza-Toro-Tembo Train is a limited-service sightseeing train which is operated during selected days of the peak tourist seasons. The train has three carriages - the oza carriage (which has a tatami-floor), the torokko (tram) carriage, and the tembo (observation deck) carriage. Stretch out and relax in the tatami carriage with its sunken kotatsu (heated table) in autumn, take in Aizu's nature and air from the tram carriage, and revel in the fantastic scenery that await you through the expansive windows of the observation deck carriage. The train runs along the Aizu Railway tracks, meaning you can hop off at various points to visit places such as Ouchi-juku (a 15 minute taxi ride from Yunokami Onsen Station), and To-no-Hetsuri Crags, among others. For information about when this train runs this year, please check out this link (Japanese).

Aizu Painted Candles Craft Experience

Aizu Erosoku (painted candles) are sumptuous items that were long-prized among samurai families. Delicate and vivid patterns such as chrysanthemums, plum blossoms, and peonies are painted onto candles made of natural Japan wax extracted from the fruits of lacquer trees. Each candle is still painstakingly painted one by one, and they serve as regal decorations in Shinto and Buddhist ceremonies and weddings. A candle painting experience is available at Ozawa Candle Shop (Reservation required).
