Fuji at the same time cannot be guaranteed.

Next, exploring the background, Seikenji Temple served as a resting place for these travelers on their way to Satta Pass. Here, you will discover the connection between Japanese sake and these people. Finally, experience this story firsthand by visiting the 300-year-old Sanwa Brewery.
