Biei Oka-no-Kura

As the name suggests, this is an unusual roadside station built in a kura (warehouse). Inside the building, which was built in the early Taisho period (1912-1926) using Biei soft stone, a warm interior made with Japanese larch from Biei welcomes you. Here is a cafeteria with a menu that focuses on local ingredients, and a specialty display and sales corner where you can find a variety of souvenirs unique to Biei, such as works by people who have studios in the town and processed agricultural products. If you are tired of touring the hills, why don't you take a break at Oka-no-Kura?
