We are pleased to announce the release of “KURA Nagano Prefecture Complete Guide 2026” (a well-respected cultural magazine, available only in the original Japanese), the second issue published since the relaunch of the KURA series.
This issue features a wide range of content, including “200 Great Things About Nagano Prefecture,” an introduction to the history and formation of Nagano, a gourmet feature highlighting restaurants set in notable architecture, “10 Selected Inns of Shinshu,” and special recommendations from municipalities showcasing their local hidden gems.
The magazine is packed with engaging articles and serves as a definitive guide to the many attractions of Nagano Prefecture that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
