Naramachi Walk: Explore Nara’s Past and Present
The
Naramachi Walk is a special guided tour led by hotel staff, focusing on the historical and contemporary attractions of Nara. Participants will journey through the popular district of Naramachi, known for its traditional townhouses, using a unique map created by the hotel, based on historical maps. This bilingual event, conducted in both Japanese and English, ensures that both domestic travelers and international visitors can enjoy it.

Guests staying at the hotel can join this tour for free, with no prior reservation required. It’s a wonderful opportunity to learn a bit of history and appreciate the beautiful landscapes of Nara at the same time!
LaQ Fishing: Fun for Children
Running alongside the historical walk, from
August 11 to August 31, a special event called
LaQ Fishing will entertain younger guests. This activity involves a hands-on fishing game- using a handmade fishing rod, kids can fish for capsules containing LaQ toys, educational blocks that are popular in Japan. This activity is designed not only to be fun but also to stimulate creativity as kids can assemble models from the pieces inside the capsules.
- - Event Schedule: The LaQ Fishing event takes place every evening from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM during the summer vacation period.
- - Location: In the lobby area of the hotel.
- - Participation Fee: Each attempt costs 500 yen, and all hotel guests can join in the fun.
The available capsules feature exciting themes such as dinosaurs, trains, and fish, and the successfully fished capsules are theirs to keep, adding a delightful souvenir element to the event.
