About the Company

Our aim is to utilize various historical sites, incorporate tourism into business values to give back to the local communities by developing accommodation facilities and managing them, and also working with the local communities to globalize the area.

We are currently seeing decreasing populations, decreasing birth rates and aging populations in many areas, and face fears of losing local tradition and valuable resources.
Among those resources are endless possibilities for new projects. By adding a new twist, we can create new opportunities for the local industries.

By turning historical sites into unique accommodation venues, we can also incorporate their history, art, food, as well as other local traditions and create new experience programs which allows visitors to get a sense of life that can only be obtained at their destinations. We hope that this new tourism and service will revitalize the community.
We hope that these trips and experiences will go global, and can become the starting point for cultural exchange as we aim to create more programs for the tourism industry.
