Overview
The Asuka region was where Japan first established its national system, including the creation of Japan’s first systematic legal code and the establishment of Japan’s first planned capital. Asuka Village still retains the atmosphere of an ancient capital from over 1,200 years ago. This is because the village is protected by a special law which preserves its historical environment. The village is also home to terraced rice fields, which are becoming rare in Japan. It is a place where visitors can fully experience ” the nostalgic Japan”.
To fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of Asuka Village, renting a bicycle is a great option.
In spring, you can also enjoy strawberry picking.
