【OUTLINE】

The quarrying of stone began around 1887 (Meiji 20), approximately 140 years ago, but after the war, as cement became widely used as a building material, the demand for stone drastically decreased, and the mine was abandoned. We will guide you to another world on a mystical tour.

You can immerse yourself in an other-worldly experience unlike your daily life.
