I stayed with a friend for two nights the other day.I was surprised to find a spacious and comfortable room with a large selection of hearty and delicious food prepared by the proprietress.The Asuka hotpot I ate for the first time was also very delicious.Thanks to your help, I was able to spend two days really comfortably.The environment around the guesthouse is rich in nature and there are few people, making it a great place to relax.I love not only ancient tomb ruins, but also shrines and temples, as well as natural creatures and insects, so I never got bored and my stay went by quickly.Asuka Village is truly a wonderful place.I would definitely like to visit again for a longer period next time.Thank you very much for your heartfelt hospitality.It was a wonderful memory of my trip.
