During your stay, you can enjoy the works of Japan's leading contemporary artists, Nara Yoshitomo, Murakami Takashi, Sugimoto Hiroshi, and others, at the adjacent contemporary art museum, COMICO ART MUSEUM YUFUIN. Enjoy your stay to your heart's content in a space that will soothe your weary mind and stimulate your five senses.

About Us_01.png

The garden, which overlooks the moon rising in the eastern sky, was named Garden of waiting for Moon(待月の庭/Taigetsu no niwa).

You can feel the coolness of the bamboo even before entering the building.

About Us_03.png

In response to the roughness of the straw-covered, unpainted walls, the ceiling and windows are covered with thin "Awa paper"(阿波紙), which allows the plant fibers to shine through.

The space, resembling a hut surrounded by soil and fibers, exudes an atmosphere of unity with the nature of the garden.

About Us_04.png

The walls are finished with Echizen washi paper(越前和紙), which has a delicate, smooth, undulating texture that brings out the suppleness and luster of the bamboo.
