Kitaura is known as a swan flying site close to Tokyo. Swan Village, a 10-minute walk away, is a free tourist spot where visitors can enjoy interacting with swans, ducks, gulls, and other waterfowl. In winter, you may be able to see whooper swans flying in from faraway lands. The Suigo Shihoroi Iris Festival is held every year from late May to late June at the Suigo Shihoroi Iris Garden, about 15 minutes away by car. The large garden is filled with 1 million irises of about 500 varieties, attracting many tourists. The "Twelve Bridge Tour," in which visitors navigate the waterways on boats called sappa boats, is the festival's specialty. During the festival, visitors can enjoy the "Yomeiri Boat," which carries brides, and the "Robune Sightseeing," in which visitors paddle across the waterways in the old fashioned way.
In addition, Kashima Jingu Shrine, the oldest shrine in the Kanto area, was built in 660 B.C. when the first Emperor Jinmu ascended to the throne, and is one of the most popular power spots in the prefecture, enshrining the gods of Japan's founding and martial arts. Kashima Antlers' home stadium, Kashima Soccer Stadium, is about 18 minutes away by car. We hope you will use our hotel for your trips and business trips to fully enjoy the Shioko-Kashima area.
