SORA ZAO SANSUIEN

The view of nature from the large windows in the spacious
living room is as beautiful as a painting, serenely enveloping
the mind and creating the sensation of being in the midst of
nature.

The trees change with the seasons, and in winter you can see the snow-capped Zao mountain range. At night, enjoy the star-filled sky shining in the sky. Enjoy a blissful moment in the
silence and openness of the space.

[About Zao Sansuien]
The Matsukawa River flows through the garden, and visitors
can enjoy a walk along the riverbank while enjoying the view
of the Zao mountain range. The stream, which gave rise to the name 'Seseragi no Sato' (village of streams), is still pure
enough to be inhabited by fireflies.

A village abounding in seasonal colours Fresh green in spring,
fresh green leaves in summer, autumn leaves in autumn and
silvery silver in winter. In the nature-rich park, trees, plants
and flowers add colour to the seasons as they change. It is
also home to a large number of wild birds.

A 24-hour security system is in place and patrols the garden
every two hours during the night to ensure safety and security.
