Ogano Town

Founded in 1864. A candy and pastry manufacture and sales store with a long history. “Chichibu Ame (Candy)” is meticulously and carefully crafted, with craftsmen being particular about bringing out the umami and original flavors of each ingredient. Almost all of the products are additive-free, making it safe for individuals of all ages to eat them.

There are tours of the wine factory and vineyard, along with free samples and purchases of wines at the attached direct sales office, and lastly, eating at the directly managed restaurants (business days are designated).

This park is located in the beautiful Nagaonekyuryo mountains that extend over the border between Chichibu city and Ogano town. It covers an area of 375 hectares and has three differently themed areas. The forest of sports, the forest of music, and the forest of culture and each of the areas are connected by a three km long "sky road". This park offers one of the best vantage points to experience the breathtaking sea of clouds. The fog produced by radiative cooling lingers in the Chichibu mountain area, creating the perfect conditions for the sea of clouds to form. When the weather aligns just right, you may be lucky enough to witness the iconic Chichibu bridge seemingly floating above the sea of clouds.

In Chichibu Muse park's "Forest of Sports," there is a facility that anyone can enjoy regardless of age! In a mix of planted and native forests are seven zip lines high above the valley making it the largest park in Japan. The park is for adults and children older than 10 years. The courses are set at high altitudes making this forest adventure very popular among adults as well!

At the farmers' market, the locally brewed shochu “Chichibu Nishiki” and other liquors are sold together with selected specialty goods of Chichibu. Also, a wide range of alcohol can be tasted at the tasting booth.
