Recommended by Gunma Prefecture

JAL Hometown Support Team Gunma Prefecture Representative Ogihara

I was born and raised in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, a peaceful area rich in nature, where I spent my time until graduating from high school. During my junior and senior high school years, I remember cycling to school while being blown by the dry winds of Akagi Oroshi, a Gunma specialty.

The Charm of Gunma Prefecture

Gunma Prefecture is located about an hour from Tokyo, yet is blessed with an abundance of nature. There are things to enjoy in every season, from hiking up the Jomo Sanzan mountains in spring, camping and mountain stream activities in summer, viewing autumn leaves in autumn, and hot springs and winter sports in winter.
Gunma Prefecture is a popular place to move to because it is an easy place to live. The easygoing and friendly nature of the people is also one of its charms.

The local souvenirs chosen by the Gunma Prefecture Hometown Support Team are...
"Bishoan Chigomochi"

"Chigomochi" is a strawberry daifuku made with large strawberries from Gunma Prefecture. The "Yayoihime" strawberry, which is native to Gunma Prefecture and characterized by its rich sweetness, is wrapped in soft habutae mochi, making it a truly delicious treat! When spring comes, you'll want to eat Bishoan's chigomochi.
Of course you can buy it as a treat for yourself, but it also makes a great gift as it is sure to please people of all ages!

Available for purchase at Okashitsukasa Bishoan (Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture)
