❄️☃️ Discover the Unique Japanese Washi Paper Created in the Snow Country of Niigata! ☃️❄️
While Niigata is certainly popular for ski enthusiasts, fewer people know about the 300-year-old tradition of crafting Japanese washi paper which utilizes the power of snow in this white winter region.☃️
The art of making washi paper with snow is a rare and fascinating process. Snow is used throughout the paper-making process: from drying the raw materials on the snow, storing the paper sheets in the snow, and even sun-drying them on the snowy surface. This age-old technique has been passed down through generations, yielding the highest-quality washi paper.
Visit the Oguni Washi Paper Production Cooperative to explore this unique craft. Engage in paper-making experiences, witness the manufacturing process, and delve into the rich tradition of washi paper.
For a hands-on encounter with the artistry and heritage of washi paper, plan a trip to Nagaoka City in Niigata Prefecture!

Watch the Yamakoshi Bullfight in Nagaoka, Niigata Prefecture
Nagaoka, located in the southern part of central Niigata Prefecture, is a region blessed with abundant nature and traditions born from its long history. One of the many highlights of Nagaoka is its ancient tradition of bullfighting, which we’re featuring in this post!
Cattle were long used in Japan for farming and transporting goods. From this, bullfighting, where two bulls bash and crash into each other, became a form of entertainment in the Yamakoshi area of Nagaoka, and is said to have a history of 1,000 years. The bulls, which weigh over a ton each, engage in fierce, intense battle, however, they are regularly pulled apart by humans to ensure that they do not get hurt.
Nagaoka, along with the neighboring city of Ojiya, is also the birthplace of colorful “nishikigoi” carp. There are lots of places to see these so-called “swimming jewels,” so definitely stop by for a look!

Nagaoka Fireworks are completely different the other fireworks.
Starting at 10:30p.m on August 1st 1945 , large B29 bombers flew over Nagaoka and continued bombing the city for one hour and 40 minutes.
The bombing burned down 80% of the downtown area and claimed over 1480 lives in a deluge of fire. Restoration Festival on August 1st, 1946, one year after the bombing. This festival helped comfort the hearts of the war-afflicted citizens of Nagaoka and encouraged them to restore the war-devastated city by working together with all their strength. The annual Nagaoka Festival has its origin in this 1946 restoration festival.
Nagaoka Fireworks are always presented with the special thoughts of Nagaokans in memory of the our prayers for the pursuit of everlasting peace.

We launched 20000 different kind of fireworks for two days and non stop for 2 hours.

〜The best place to visit Yamakoshi Rice Terraced Paddies〜 There are neither modern buildings nor big shopping malls in Yamakoshi, however you can see the magnificent scenery and have wonderful experiences.
